Overview

This node interacts with the LEDGERS API to perform operations related to various business resources. Specifically, for the Catalog Operation resource and the Get Catalog operation, it retrieves detailed information about a catalog item identified by its Catalog ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch product or catalog details from an external system to use within your workflow, such as syncing product data, validating catalog entries, or enriching order processing.

Practical examples include:

  • Fetching product details before creating an invoice or sales order.
  • Retrieving catalog information to update inventory or pricing.
  • Integrating catalog data into reporting or analytics workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
Catalog ID The unique identifier of the catalog item to retrieve. This is a required string input.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the catalog details fetched from the LEDGERS API. The structure typically includes fields describing the catalog item, such as product variants and other metadata. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally contains an array under data with catalog information.

No binary data output is indicated in the source code.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the LEDGERS API via an API key credential and user authentication (email and password).
  • The node performs a login request to obtain an API token before making further requests.
  • The API base URL and credentials must be configured properly in n8n.
  • Network access to the LEDGERS API endpoints is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication failures: If the node throws errors related to authentication, verify that the API key, email, and password credentials are correct and have sufficient permissions.
  • Invalid Catalog ID: Providing an incorrect or non-existent Catalog ID may result in empty or error responses. Ensure the Catalog ID exists in the LEDGERS system.
  • API endpoint issues: If the API URL is misconfigured or unreachable, requests will fail. Confirm network connectivity and correct API URL configuration.
  • Unexpected API responses: The node expects certain data structures; if the API changes or returns unexpected formats, the node might not function correctly.
