Overview
The node named "Steuerboard" integrates with the Steuerboard API to perform various operations on different resources. Specifically, for the Workspace - Update operation, it updates an existing workspace's details by sending new data to the API. This is useful in scenarios where you need to rename a workspace or modify its metadata programmatically within an automation workflow.
Practical examples include:
- Renaming a project workspace after rebranding.
- Correcting typos or updating workspace names based on user input.
- Automating workspace management as part of onboarding or organizational changes.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Client ID | The unique identifier of the client owning the workspace. |
| Workspace ID | The unique identifier of the workspace that you want to update. |
| Name | The new name to assign to the workspace. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the updated workspace object returned from the Steuerboard API. This typically includes the workspace's current state after the update, such as its ID, new name, and possibly other metadata fields managed by the API.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires connection to the Steuerboard API.
- Needs an API authentication token configured in the node credentials (referred generically as an API key credential).
- The base URL for the API must be set in the node credentials configuration.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Client ID or Workspace ID will cause the update to fail.
- Insufficient permissions or invalid API credentials can result in authorization errors.
- Providing an empty or invalid new workspace name may lead to validation errors from the API.
Error messages and resolutions:
- "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is correctly configured and has necessary permissions.
- "Workspace not found": Verify that the Workspace ID is correct and exists under the specified Client ID.
- "Invalid input" or "Name cannot be empty": Ensure the new workspace name is provided and meets any naming requirements enforced by the API.
