Overview

This node operation retrieves a list of users from an external service. It is useful for scenarios where you need to fetch and process user data in bulk, such as generating reports, syncing user information with other systems, or performing batch updates based on user attributes.

For example, you might use this node to:

  • Get all users registered in a system to analyze their activity.
  • Export user lists for marketing or communication purposes.
  • Integrate user data into a CRM or database.

Properties

Name Meaning
Additional Query Parameters Optional parameters to customize the query. Currently supports specifying pagination via a JSON object under "Page". For example, you can set page number and size to control which subset of users is returned.

The "Page" parameter expects a JSON object that defines pagination details, allowing you to request specific pages of user data.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the list of users retrieved from the external API. The structure typically includes an array of user objects with their respective properties (such as id, name, email, etc.), depending on the API's response schema.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the external user management service.
  • The base URL for API requests is configured within the node defaults.
  • The node uses standard HTTP headers to accept and send JSON content.

Troubleshooting

  • Empty or incomplete user lists: Ensure that pagination parameters are correctly set; requesting a page beyond available data will return empty results.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Invalid JSON in Additional Query Parameters: When specifying the "Page" parameter, ensure the JSON syntax is correct to avoid request failures.
  • Network issues: Check connectivity to the external API endpoint.

Links and References

  • Refer to the external user management service’s API documentation for detailed information on supported query parameters and response formats.
  • n8n documentation on how to configure API credentials and use collection-type input properties.
