ChatWootInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the ChatWoot API to delete a custom attribute from a specified account. It is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically manage and clean up custom attributes associated with user accounts, such as removing outdated or incorrect metadata.

For example, if your system tracks additional user information via custom attributes and some attributes become obsolete or were created by mistake, this node allows you to remove those attributes efficiently without manual intervention.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the deletion operation. Typically, this would include confirmation of successful deletion or details about any error encountered. The exact structure depends on the ChatWoot API response but generally confirms whether the custom attribute was removed.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the ChatWoot API.
• The base URL for the ChatWoot instance must be configured in the node credentials.
• The node uses HTTP requests to interact with the ChatWoot REST API.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid Account Id or Custom Attribute Id: If either ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API will return an error indicating the resource was not found. Verify the IDs before running the node.
• Authentication Errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to delete custom attributes.
• Network Issues: Connectivity problems with the ChatWoot server can cause request failures. Check network access and the configured base URL.
• API Rate Limits: Excessive requests may trigger rate limiting; handle such errors by implementing retries or backoff strategies.
