Interact with LearningSuite API (powered by agentur-systeme.de)

Actions56

Overview

This node integrates with the LearningSuite API to manage groups and their associated courses. Specifically, the "Add Courses to Group" operation allows users to add one or more courses to a specified group within the LearningSuite platform.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Automating course enrollment for user groups in an educational or corporate training environment.
  • Managing access control by dynamically updating which courses are available to specific groups.
  • Streamlining administrative workflows by programmatically associating courses with groups based on business rules or external triggers.

Practical example:

  • When a new training program launches, automatically add all relevant courses to the corresponding learner group to ensure immediate access without manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
Group Name or ID The identifier of the target group. You can select from a list of existing groups or specify an ID via expression. This determines which group will receive the added courses.
Course Names or IDs One or more courses to add to the group. Select from a list of available courses or specify IDs using expressions.
Additional Options Optional settings for the operation:
- Disable Access Notification Email: Boolean flag to disable sending notification emails about the access change. Defaults to false (emails sent).

Output

The node outputs a JSON array representing the result of adding courses to the specified group. Each item typically contains details confirming the successful association of courses with the group or error information if the operation failed.

If the operation supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent related files or attachments, but this node focuses on JSON responses from the API.

Dependencies

  • Requires a valid API key credential for authenticating with the LearningSuite API.
  • The node depends on the LearningSuite API being accessible at the configured base URL.
  • Proper permissions must be granted to the API key to modify group-course associations.
  • No additional external services are required beyond the LearningSuite API.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Invalid or missing group ID: Ensure the group exists and the ID is correct.
    • Invalid or missing course IDs: Verify that the courses exist and the IDs are accurate.
    • Insufficient permissions: The API key must have rights to modify groups and courses.
    • Network or API endpoint issues: Confirm connectivity and correct base URL configuration.

  • Error Messages:

    • "No handler for resource "group" and operation "addCourses": Indicates the node does not support the requested operation; verify the operation name.
    • API errors returned from LearningSuite (e.g., 404 Not Found, 401 Unauthorized): Check credentials and resource identifiers.
    • "Unknown error": Generic fallback error; check node logs and API response for details.

  • Resolution Tips:

    • Use the built-in load options to select valid groups and courses to minimize input errors.
    • Enable "Continue On Fail" in the node settings to handle partial failures gracefully.
    • Review API documentation for permission requirements and request formats.
