Overview
This node integrates with the AdBlast API to update the processing status of a video within a specified project. It is useful in workflows where you need to programmatically mark a video as processing or not processing, for example, to trigger downstream actions based on the video's current state.
Practical scenarios include:
- Automatically marking videos as "processing" when they enter a transcoding queue.
- Clearing the processing flag once video processing completes.
- Coordinating video status updates in multi-step media pipelines.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Authentication Method | Choose how to authenticate: • Predefined Credentials (use saved API credentials) • Dynamic API Key (enter key dynamically via expressions) |
| AdBlast Base URL | The base URL for the AdBlast API. Required only if using Dynamic API Key authentication. |
| API Key | The API key for authenticating requests. Required only if using Dynamic API Key authentication. |
| Project Id | The unique identifier of the project containing the video whose processing status will be updated. |
| Processing | Boolean flag indicating the processing status to set for the video (true = processing, false = not processing). |
Output
The node outputs JSON data reflecting the response from the AdBlast API after setting the video's processing status. This typically includes confirmation of the updated status and any relevant metadata returned by the API.
No binary data output is produced by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the AdBlast API endpoint.
- Requires an API key credential, either predefined in n8n or provided dynamically at runtime.
- The base URL defaults to
https://dev.adblast.aibut can be overridden when using dynamic authentication.
Troubleshooting
- Authentication errors: Ensure that the API key is valid and has sufficient permissions to update video statuses.
- Invalid Project Id: Verify that the project ID exists and is correctly entered.
- Network issues: Confirm that the base URL is reachable and correct, especially when using dynamic URLs.
- API response errors: Check the API documentation for error codes related to invalid parameters or rate limits.
