Steuerboard

Consume the Steuerboard API

Overview

This node integrates with the Steuerboard API to manage tasks. Specifically, the "Delete Task" operation allows users to remove a task by specifying its unique identifier. This is useful in scenarios where tasks are no longer relevant or were created by mistake and need to be cleaned up from the system.

Practical examples include:

  • Automating cleanup of completed or obsolete tasks.
  • Removing tasks that were created incorrectly during batch operations.
  • Managing task lifecycle programmatically within workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
Client ID The ID of the client associated with the task.
Task ID The ID of the task to delete.

Output

The output JSON typically contains the response from the Steuerboard API confirming the deletion of the specified task. It may include status information or confirmation messages indicating whether the deletion was successful.

No binary data output is expected for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Steuerboard API.
  • Needs an API authentication token configured in the node credentials.
  • The base URL for the API must be set in the node's credential configuration.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Client ID or Task ID will cause the operation to fail.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent communication with the Steuerboard API.
    • Insufficient permissions or invalid API credentials will result in authorization errors.
  • Error messages:

    • "Task not found": The provided Task ID does not exist or is incorrect. Verify the Task ID.
    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API key or token is correctly configured and has necessary permissions.
    • "Bad Request": Ensure all required parameters are provided and valid.

Resolving these usually involves verifying input parameters, checking API credentials, and ensuring network access to the Steuerboard service.
