Overview
This node enables bulk deletion of quote line items in the Pax8 quoting system. It is designed to remove multiple line items from a specific quote in one operation, which can be useful for cleaning up or modifying quotes efficiently without deleting items one by one.
Common scenarios include:
- Automating the removal of obsolete or incorrect line items from a quote.
- Managing large quotes where multiple line items need to be deleted simultaneously.
- Integrating with other systems that update quotes and require batch deletions.
Example: A user wants to delete several outdated product line items from a sales quote before sending it to a customer. Using this node, they provide the quote ID and an array of line item IDs to delete all at once.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Quote Id | The unique identifier of the quote from which line items will be deleted. |
| Line Item Ids | A JSON array containing the IDs of the line items to be deleted in bulk from the quote. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the bulk delete operation. This typically includes confirmation of which line items were successfully deleted or any errors encountered during the process.
No binary data output is involved.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Pax8 quoting API.
- The node communicates with the Pax8 API endpoint at
https://api.pax8.com. - Proper configuration of the API authentication credentials within n8n is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Quote Id or Line Item Ids: If the provided quote ID or line item IDs are incorrect or do not exist, the API may return errors indicating not found or invalid parameters. Verify the IDs before running the node.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up.
- Malformed JSON for Line Item Ids: The line item IDs must be provided as a valid JSON array. Improper formatting will cause parsing errors. Use the JSON input field carefully.
- API Rate Limits or Network Issues: If the Pax8 API rate limits requests or there are connectivity problems, the node may fail. Retry after some time or check network settings.
