Overview
This node integrates with the Lexware Office API to manage various business resources such as contacts, articles, invoices, quotations, and more. Specifically, for the Quotation - Get operation, it retrieves detailed information about a single quotation by its unique ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch up-to-date quotation data from your Lexware system for further processing, reporting, or automation workflows.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically retrieving quotation details when a new order is placed.
- Fetching quotation status updates to trigger follow-up actions.
- Integrating quotation data into CRM or ERP systems for unified customer management.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Quotation ID | The unique identifier of the quotation to retrieve. This is a required string input. |
Output
The node outputs a JSON object representing the requested quotation's data as returned by the Lexware Office API. This includes all relevant fields associated with the quotation, such as status, type, priority, dates, values, notes, and other metadata.
If the node supports binary data output (not applicable specifically for this operation), it would typically represent files or documents related to the resource.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Lexware Office API.
- The node expects the Lexware Office API base URL and API key to be configured in the credentials.
- No additional external dependencies are indicated.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Required Fields Error: If the "Quotation ID" is not provided, the node will throw an error indicating missing required fields. Ensure that the Quotation ID is correctly set.
- Authentication Errors: If the API key credential is invalid or missing, authentication will fail. Verify that the API key is correctly configured in the node credentials.
- Resource Not Found: If the specified Quotation ID does not exist, the API may return a not found error. Confirm the ID is correct and exists in the Lexware system.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might be throttled by the API. Adjust the workflow or check API rate limit settings if encountering rate limit errors.
