Interact with Nexrender Cloud API

Actions14

Overview

This node interacts with the Nexrender Cloud API, specifically allowing users to upload font files to their Nexrender account. It is useful in scenarios where you want to programmatically add custom fonts for use in video rendering projects managed by Nexrender. For example, if you have a font file from a previous node or external source, you can upload it directly to Nexrender to be used in templates or jobs.

Properties

Name Meaning
Binary Property Name of the binary property that contains the font file (e.g., from a previous node). This must point to the binary data holding the font file to upload.
Family Name Optional font family name override. You can specify a custom font family name to associate with the uploaded font.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Nexrender API after uploading the font. The output typically includes success status and details about the uploaded font resource. If the upload fails, the output will contain an error message describing the failure.

The node does not output binary data itself; it only uploads binary data provided as input and returns JSON metadata about the uploaded font.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Nexrender Cloud API.
  • The node expects the Nexrender API base URL to be configured via credentials.
  • Input binary data must be available on the specified binary property name.

Troubleshooting

  • No binary data found under property: This error occurs if the specified binary property does not exist or does not contain any binary data. Ensure the binary property name matches exactly the property containing the font file.
  • API request failures: Errors returned from the Nexrender API (e.g., authentication errors, invalid font file) will be surfaced. Check your API key validity and ensure the font file is correctly formatted.
  • Operation not implemented: This indicates the node was called with unsupported resource-operation combinations. Verify you are using the "Font" resource with the "Upload" operation.
