Handle your GymControl instance

Actions91

Overview

This node integrates with the GymControl API to create a new exercise entry in your GymControl instance. It is useful for fitness trainers, gym managers, or app developers who want to automate adding exercises to their workout database. For example, you can use this node to programmatically add new exercises with names and optional images, enabling dynamic workout plan generation or syncing exercise data from other sources.

Properties

Name Meaning
Show Complete Response Whether to return the full API response or just the created exercise's essential details.
Name The name of the exercise to be created (required).
Optional Fields Additional optional fields for the exercise:
- Image URL or identifier of an image representing the exercise (optional).

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created exercise as returned by the GymControl API. If "Show Complete Response" is enabled, the entire API response is returned; otherwise, only the core details of the created exercise are provided. The output does not include binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the GymControl API.
  • The node expects the base URL of the GymControl instance to be configured in the credentials.
  • Network access to the GymControl API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Validation errors: The "Name" property is required; missing it will cause the API to reject the request.
  • Network issues: Verify connectivity to the GymControl API URL.
  • Unexpected responses: Enable "Show Complete Response" to debug the full API reply.
