Steuerboard

Overview

This node integrates with the Steuerboard API to retrieve information about users. Specifically, the "User" resource with the "Get by ID" operation allows you to fetch detailed data for a single user by specifying their unique user ID within a given client context.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

• Retrieving user profile details for display or processing in workflows.
• Validating user existence or status before performing further actions.
• Synchronizing user data from Steuerboard into other systems.

For example, you might use this node to get a user's full profile when they log into your application or to pull user details for reporting purposes.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the user object retrieved from the Steuerboard API. This typically includes user attributes such as name, email, roles, status, and any other metadata provided by the API.

If the API supports binary data related to the user (e.g., profile pictures), it would be included in the binary output field; however, based on the provided code, no explicit binary handling is indicated.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to the Steuerboard API.
• Needs an API authentication token configured in the node's credentials to authorize requests.
• The base URL for the API is dynamically set from the credential configuration.

Troubleshooting

• Missing or invalid Client ID/User ID: Ensure both IDs are correctly provided and correspond to existing entities in Steuerboard.
• Authentication errors: Verify that the API key or token used in credentials is valid and has sufficient permissions.
• Network issues: Check connectivity to the Steuerboard API endpoint.
• Unexpected API responses: Confirm that the API version and endpoint URLs have not changed.
