I developed a custom node for the n8n automation platform and submitted it for verification. After review, I got confirmation that it was approved by the n8n team.
Now that my node is officially verified, I’m curious about the next steps. Will it automatically show up in the community nodes section? How long usually does it take for verified nodes to be accessible for others to install and use?
Are there any particular guidelines or best practices I need to follow since my node is now verified? I want to ensure I maintain the quality that n8n expects from verified contributions.
Has anyone here experienced this verification process? I would appreciate hearing your experiences and any advice on managing a verified node in the n8n ecosystem.
gr8 job on getting it verified! when mine got the thumbs up, it took like 3 days to pop up in the community. just keep the docs fresh and be ready to handle user feedback. n8n’s team keeps an eye on those things!
Timing’s all over the place from what I’ve seen. Mine showed up after 5 days, but I’ve watched others wait two weeks depending on their review process. Once you’re live, keep an eye on the GitHub repo for issues and feature requests - users will definitely find edge cases you missed. Here’s the thing about verification: they’ll yank it if you let bugs pile up or ghost people on issues. Your package.json and docs better be bulletproof since that’s what users see first. I’d also throw together some basic analytics to track adoption and see where things break most often.
Congrats on getting verified! Your node should appear in the community section within a week or so - depends on their release schedule. They index new nodes at regular intervals. Now for the upkeep part: watch your node’s performance and make sure it stays compatible when n8n pushes updates. Keep your docs current and jump on GitHub issues or forum questions fast. Being verified means you’re committing to ongoing support, so expect to fix bugs and handle problems quickly - especially if your node takes off.
