Unsplash Image Node

2 min read Updated July 23, 2026

The Unsplash Image node searches Unsplash and returns a single stock photo that matches your query. It is a quick way to add a free, relevant photo to a post or page.

What it does

  • Searches Unsplash for a photo matching a search term.
  • Returns one photo per execution, at the size and orientation you choose.
  • Can return a random match instead of the top result.

Configuration reference

Field Required What it does
Search term Yes The query to search for. Supports variable tags.
Image size No raw, full, regular, or small. Defaults to regular.
Orientation No landscape, portrait, squarish, or all. Defaults to all.
Random result No Return a random match rather than the top result.

Local only, and cost

Unsplash Image runs on your WordPress site, so it is a Local-only node. It costs 3 credits per run and returns one photo per execution. Add more Unsplash nodes if you need more photos. See Local vs Cloud execution.

Using the result in later nodes

The node produces one image URL, referenced with [Input from <this-node-id>].

Worked example: add a photo to a post

  1. Set the search term to mountain sunrise, size to regular, orientation to landscape.
  2. Wire the image into a Create Post/Product node as the featured image.
