Basecamp

Interact with the Basecamp API

Actions80

Overview

This node interacts with the Basecamp API to retrieve chatbots associated with a specific chat within a given bucket. It is useful for workflows that need to fetch chatbot details or metadata from Basecamp projects, such as automating monitoring of chatbot activity or integrating chatbot data into other systems.

A practical example would be a workflow that, upon triggering, fetches all chatbots in a particular chat room to analyze their responses or log their interactions.

Properties

Name Meaning
Bucket Id The numeric identifier of the Basecamp bucket (project) where the chat resides.
Chat Id The numeric identifier of the chat within the specified bucket from which to get chatbots.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the chatbots retrieved from the specified chat. This typically includes chatbot details such as IDs, names, and possibly configuration or status information depending on the Basecamp API response.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API authentication token configured via OAuth2 credentials for Basecamp.
  • The node depends on the Basecamp API endpoint https://3.basecampapi.com/{basecampId} where {basecampId} is dynamically set from credentials.
  • The node uses the @devlikeapro/n8n-openapi-node package to build properties from the OpenAPI specification.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Bucket Id or Chat Id: Ensure these numeric IDs are correctly provided; otherwise, the API call will fail.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the OAuth2 credentials are properly configured and have sufficient permissions to access the Basecamp API.
  • API rate limits or network issues: These can cause request failures; check connectivity and Basecamp API status.
  • Unexpected API response structure: If the Basecamp API changes, the node might not parse the response correctly.
