KonbiniAPI

Monitor Creator Growth in n8n

Self-hosted, scheduled creator tracking — powered by live TikTok and Instagram data.

n8n has no built-in nodes for TikTok or Instagram public data. Connecting KonbiniAPI via n8n's MCP node gives your workflows live access to any public creator profile without writing custom HTTP requests or maintaining scrapers.

Perfect for

  • Long-running follower growth dashboards for influencer programs
  • Automated creator performance reports for talent management
  • Pre and post-campaign follower count snapshots
  • Internal alerts when a creator's audience size changes significantly

Workflow steps

Schedule a workflow, call KonbiniAPI for the creator's current profile via the MCP node, then route the result to a database, spreadsheet, or notification.

  1. 1

    Schedule Trigger node

    Set the interval — daily or weekly is enough for most monitoring use cases.

  2. 2

    MCP node — tiktok.get_user / instagram.get_user

    Call KonbiniAPI with the creator's username. Returns their current follower count, media count, and verification status.

  3. 3

    IF or Switch node

    Branch based on the follower count, or pass the data to a comparison against a stored baseline from a previous run.

  4. 4

    Output node

    Write to Google Sheets, send a Telegram or Slack message, or store the result in a database.
