Overview

This node allows updating an existing Authentication Sync Tool by specifying its unique identifier and providing the updated parameters in JSON format. It is useful for scenarios where you need to programmatically modify the configuration or settings of an authentication synchronization tool within a workflow, such as updating credentials, sync intervals, or other relevant properties.

Practical examples include:

  • Automating updates to authentication sync tools when user roles or permissions change.
  • Integrating with external systems that require dynamic updates to authentication configurations.
  • Managing multiple authentication sync tools centrally through n8n workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique numeric identifier of the Authentication Sync Tool to update.
Authentication Sync Tool JSON object containing the request parameters for the Authentication Sync Tool update.

Output

The node outputs a JSON object representing the response from the update operation on the Authentication Sync Tool. This typically includes confirmation of the update, the current state of the tool after modification, or any error messages if the update failed.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential or similar authentication token configured in n8n to authorize requests to the service managing the Authentication Sync Tool.
  • The node uses HTTP requests with JSON payloads to communicate with the external API endpoint responsible for handling Authentication Sync Tool updates.
  • Proper network access and API endpoint configuration are necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Id property leading to failure in identifying the target Authentication Sync Tool.
    • Malformed JSON in the Authentication Sync Tool property causing request parsing errors.
    • Authentication failures due to missing or incorrect API credentials.
    • Network connectivity problems preventing communication with the external API.
  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "Authentication failed" — Verify that the API key or authentication token is correctly set up in n8n credentials.
    • "Invalid ID" or "Resource not found" — Ensure the Id corresponds to an existing Authentication Sync Tool.
    • "Malformed JSON" — Check the JSON syntax in the Authentication Sync Tool input property.
    • Timeout or network errors — Confirm network connectivity and API endpoint availability.

Links and References

  • Refer to the external API documentation for the Authentication Sync Tool service for detailed information on request parameters and expected responses.
  • n8n documentation on how to configure API credentials and use JSON input properties effectively.
