AdBlast

Interact with AdBlast API

Actions56

Overview

This node integrates with the AdBlast API to delete a specific visual element from a scene within a project. It is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically manage and update visual content in scenes, such as removing outdated or incorrect visuals from a digital presentation or interactive environment.

For example, if you have an automated workflow that updates marketing materials or digital signage, this node can remove visuals that are no longer relevant without manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication Method Choose how to authenticate: either use saved API credentials or provide an API key dynamically.
AdBlast Base URL The base URL of 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 scene.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the AdBlast API after attempting to delete the visual. This typically includes confirmation of deletion or error details if the operation failed.

No binary data output is involved.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the AdBlast API.
  • Requires either:
    • Saved API credentials configured in n8n, or
    • Dynamic entry of the API key and base URL at runtime.
  • Network connectivity to the specified AdBlast API base URL.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: Ensure the API key is valid and has sufficient permissions to delete visuals.
  • Invalid IDs: Verify that the Project Id, Scene Id, and Visual Id are correct and exist in the AdBlast system.
  • Network issues: Confirm that the base URL is reachable and there are no firewall restrictions.
  • API errors: If the API returns errors, check the response message for details; it may indicate missing parameters or insufficient rights.
