Overview
This node interacts with the Bedrijfsdata API to retrieve multiple news items related to a specific company identified by its Bedrijfsdata.nl ID. It is useful for scenarios where you want to monitor recent news or updates about a company, such as tracking media coverage, market developments, or public announcements.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically fetching the latest news articles about a client company for reporting.
- Integrating company news into dashboards or CRM systems.
- Triggering workflows based on new relevant news items detected for a company.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bedrijfsdata.nl ID | (Required) The unique identifier of the company in the Bedrijfsdata.nl system to fetch news for. |
| Search Query | (Optional) A text query to filter news items by keywords or topics of interest. |
| Detailed Output | Whether to return detailed metadata such as total number of news items found and credit usage. If enabled, returns a single detailed item instead of an array of news items. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing news items related to the specified company. When Detailed Output is disabled (default), the output is an array of news items, each representing a news article or report about the company.
If Detailed Output is enabled, the output contains a single object with additional metadata fields such as the total count of news items found and information about API credit usage, rather than a list of individual news entries.
The node does not output binary data.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Bedrijfsdata API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The node makes HTTP GET requests to the
/newsendpoint of the Bedrijfsdata API version 1.2. - No other external dependencies are required.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid Bedrijfsdata.nl ID: The
idproperty is required. Omitting it or providing an incorrect ID will cause the API request to fail. Ensure the ID corresponds to a valid company in the Bedrijfsdata system. - Empty or no news results: If the search query filters too strictly or the company has no recent news, the returned array may be empty.
- API rate limits or credit usage exceeded: Enabling detailed output shows credit usage; if you encounter errors related to quota, check your API subscription and usage.
- Network or authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and that the network allows outbound HTTPS requests to
api.bedrijfsdata.nl.
