Create and retrieve data from eKyte (tasks, projects, tickets, boards, workspaces, notes, notifications)

Actions7

Overview

This node integrates with the eKyte platform to create and retrieve various entities such as tasks, projects, tickets, boards, workspaces, notes, and notifications. Specifically, for the Create Board operation, it allows users to create a new board within eKyte, optionally associating it with a workspace.

Typical use cases include:

  • Automating project management workflows by programmatically creating boards.
  • Integrating eKyte board creation into larger automation pipelines where boards represent key organizational units or planning structures.
  • Quickly setting up new boards based on external triggers or data sources without manual intervention.

Example: Automatically create a new board titled "Marketing Campaign Q3" in a specific workspace when a new marketing project is initiated in another system.

Properties

Name Meaning
E-Mail The user email for eKyte operations; identifies the user performing the action.
ID Workspace Numeric identifier of the workspace where the board will be created (optional).
Descrição Description text for the board, providing additional details (optional).
Titulo Title of the board to be created; this is required and represents the board's name.

Output

The output is a JSON object representing the newly created board as returned by the eKyte API. This typically includes all relevant properties of the board such as its ID, title, description, associated workspace, creation timestamps, and other metadata provided by the API response.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential and company identifier configured in n8n to authenticate requests to the eKyte API.
  • The node makes HTTP POST requests to https://api.ekyte.com/n8n/boards endpoint.
  • Proper network access to the eKyte API endpoint is necessary.
  • The user must have appropriate permissions in eKyte to create boards.

Troubleshooting

  • Minimum Interval Enforcement: The node enforces a minimum interval of 15 minutes between calls to the same operation to avoid rate limiting or API abuse. If you see an error like:

    Intervalo mínimo de 15 minutos não respeitado para a operação "createBoard". Tente novamente em XX segundos.

    Wait the specified number of seconds before retrying.

  • Authentication Errors: If the API key or company ID credentials are missing or invalid, the node will fail. Ensure that valid credentials are set up in n8n.

  • Missing Required Parameters: The boardTitle and userEmail fields are mandatory. Omitting these will cause errors.

  • API Errors: Any error message from the eKyte API will be surfaced prefixed with Error executing operation createBoard:. Check the message for details such as invalid workspace ID or permission issues.
