Cogfy Tables

Overview

This node interacts with the Cogfy Tables API to manage collections, records, and fields. Specifically, the "Delete Collection" operation allows users to delete an existing collection by specifying its unique identifier. This is useful for cleaning up unused or obsolete collections in a database managed via Cogfy Tables.

Practical examples include:

• Removing a collection that is no longer needed after data migration.
• Automating cleanup tasks where collections are dynamically created and deleted based on business logic.

Properties

Output

The output JSON will typically contain the response from the Cogfy Tables API confirming the deletion status of the specified collection. It may include success confirmation or error details if the deletion failed.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Cogfy Tables API.
• The node expects the base URL of the Cogfy Tables API to be configured in the credentials.
• The node uses standard HTTP headers for JSON content type and accepts JSON responses.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:

  • Providing an invalid or non-existent Collection Id will result in an error from the API.
  • Missing or incorrect API authentication credentials will cause authorization failures.
  • Network connectivity issues can prevent the node from reaching the Cogfy Tables API.

• Error messages:

  • "Collection not found" indicates the specified Collection Id does not exist; verify the ID.
  • "Unauthorized" or similar errors suggest problems with API credentials; check and update them.
  • Timeout or network errors require checking internet connection or API availability.
