Overview
This node interacts with the Cogfy Tables API to list fields within a specified collection. It is useful when you need to retrieve metadata about the fields defined in a particular collection, such as their names, types, or other attributes. Practical scenarios include dynamically generating forms based on collection fields, synchronizing schema information, or validating data structures before processing records.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Collection Id | The unique identifier of the collection whose fields you want to list. This is a required string input. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the list of fields for the specified collection. Each item in the output typically contains details about a field, such as its name, type, and possibly other metadata provided by the Cogfy Tables API. There is no indication that binary data is returned.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Cogfy Tables API.
- The base URL for the API must be configured in the node credentials.
- The node depends on the external Cogfy Tables API service being available and accessible.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid Collection Id: Ensure the Collection Id property is correctly set and corresponds to an existing collection in Cogfy Tables.
- Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
- Network issues: Confirm that the base URL is correct and the API service is reachable from your environment.
- API response errors: If the API returns errors, check the error message for details; it may indicate issues like rate limiting or invalid requests.
