Overview
This node integrates with the Magnet Customer API to retrieve detailed information about tasks. Specifically, the "Get Task" operation fetches a single task by its unique identifier. This is useful in scenarios where you want to obtain up-to-date details about a specific task within your CRM or project management workflow, such as fetching task status, description, assigned staff, or deadlines.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically retrieving task details when triggered by another event.
- Enriching workflows with task data for reporting or notifications.
- Synchronizing task information between Magnet Customer and other systems.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Authentication | Method of authentication to use: either "API Token" or "OAuth2". |
| Task ID | The unique identifier of the task to retrieve. |
| Life Cycle | (Hidden) Represents the life cycle stage of the contact; preset internally (not user-set). |
| Source | (Hidden) Indicates the source of the contact; preset internally as "n8n". |
Note: The properties "Life Cycle" and "Source" are hidden and set internally, not exposed for user input.
Output
The output is a JSON object representing the retrieved task's data from the Magnet Customer API. It typically includes fields such as task ID, title, description, status, assigned staff, due dates, and any custom fields associated with the task.
If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent attachments or files related to the task, but this node primarily outputs JSON data.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Magnet Customer API.
- Requires an API key credential or OAuth2 credentials configured in n8n for authentication.
- No additional external dependencies beyond the Magnet Customer API.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Task ID: Ensure the Task ID provided exists and is correctly formatted.
- Authentication errors: Verify that the API token or OAuth2 credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions.
- Network or API downtime: Check connectivity and Magnet Customer service status.
Error messages:
"error": "Task not found": The specified Task ID does not exist. Confirm the ID.- Authentication failures: Errors indicating invalid credentials require reconfiguration of the API key or OAuth2 token.
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded: Wait and retry later or check API usage limits.
