Integration Token Issue with Medium.com

I’m currently trying to integrate Medium.com with Make.com, but I’m facing an issue where I cannot see the option to generate an integration token in my Medium account settings. I’ve cleared my cache and even tried accessing it through different browsers, but the option remains elusive.

Could anyone clarify if the integration token feature is only available for paid Medium accounts or now it’s not available?

I would appreciate any guidance or insights on how to resolve this issue or alternative methods to connect Medium with Make.com.

Thanks, but I can’t find it. There is no option to get a token.

Ah, looks like Medium has disabled their API. The Medium API only works if you have created a token in the past.

For more information, see https://help.medium.com/hc/en-us/articles/213480228-API-Importing

You have to use the various approved methods listed on that page to import/export data from Medium.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Thank you for letting me know! Appreciate your help!

The Official Medium API was deprecated long ago, but you can use the Unofficial Medium API to fetch the data from Medium. It’s listed on the RapidAPI platform. On Make, use the normal API integration and pass the API key in the headers field (x-rapidapi-key).

How to call an API on RapidAPI

Use the HTTP “Make an API Key Auth Request” module.

Create a new keychain connection and insert your RapidAPI API Key.

Key: <YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY>
API Key parameter name: X-RapidAPI-Key

You can reuse this RapidAPI keychain for all API calls to RapidAPI – you’ll just need to change the X-RapidAPI-Host value based on the API you are calling.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
