Overview
The node's "Publish Trigger" operation under the "Triggers" resource is designed to publish a specific trigger identified by a unique key within a given workspace. This operation is useful in scenarios where you want to activate or make a trigger available for use after its configuration or update. For example, after setting up an automation trigger in a workspace, you can use this node to publish it so that it starts listening for events or conditions.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Workspace Id | The identifier of the workspace where the trigger exists. You can find this ID in the workspace settings page. |
| Key | The unique key that identifies the specific trigger you want to publish. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the publish action on the trigger. This typically includes confirmation details such as the status of the publishing process and any relevant metadata about the trigger after being published. There is no indication that binary data is output by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authentication with the external service managing triggers.
- The base URL for the API is configured via credentials.
- The node depends on an OpenAPI-based client library to interact with the external API.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing workspace ID or trigger key will cause the operation to fail.
- Authentication errors if the API key credential is not set or invalid.
- Network or connectivity issues with the external API endpoint.
Error messages and resolutions:
- "Trigger not found": Verify that the workspace ID and trigger key are correct.
- "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is properly configured and has necessary permissions.
- "Network error": Ensure that the n8n instance has internet access and the API endpoint is reachable.
