Overview
This node integrates with Infomaniak services, specifically supporting the "Kchat" service in the provided code. The "Get Posts" operation under the "Channel" resource allows users to retrieve posts from a specified chat channel within the Kchat service. This is useful for scenarios where you want to automate workflows involving chat data extraction, such as monitoring conversations, archiving messages, or triggering actions based on chat content.
For example, you could use this node to fetch recent posts from a team communication channel and then analyze or forward them to another system automatically.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Service | The Infomaniak service to use. Currently supports only "Kchat". |
| Channel Name or ID | Select a channel from a dynamically loaded list or specify its ID via an expression. This identifies the chat channel from which posts will be retrieved. |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the posts retrieved from the specified channel. Each item in the output corresponds to a post's data structure as returned by the Kchat service API. The exact fields depend on the API response but typically include message content, author information, timestamps, and other metadata related to each post.
No binary data output is indicated in the source code.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with Infomaniak services.
- The node depends on the Kchat service API to fetch channels and posts.
- The node uses internal helper classes (
KchatServiceandKchatNodeOperations) to interact with the API. - Proper configuration of the Infomaniak API credentials in n8n is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Error retrieving channels: If the node fails to load channels, it may indicate invalid or missing API credentials, network issues, or API changes. Verify that the API key is correct and has sufficient permissions.
- Unsupported service error: If a service other than "Kchat" is selected (or defaulted), the node throws an error because only "Kchat" is implemented.
- Empty or invalid channel selection: Ensure that the channel ID or name is correctly selected or provided; otherwise, the API call to get posts may fail or return no data.
- API rate limits or connectivity issues: As with any external API integration, transient errors can occur due to rate limiting or network problems. Retrying or checking API status may help.
