Overview
This node interacts with the Basecamp API to retrieve event data related to specific project recordings. The "Get Events" operation under the "Events" resource fetches events associated with a particular recording within a project bucket. This is useful for workflows that need to monitor or process activity logs, changes, or updates tied to recordings in Basecamp projects.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically fetching and processing event logs for a given recording to trigger notifications.
- Integrating Basecamp event data into reporting dashboards.
- Auditing changes or activities on specific recordings within project buckets.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bucket Id | ID of the project bucket (numeric identifier) where the recording resides. |
| Recording Id | ID of the specific recording to retrieve events for (numeric identifier). |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the events retrieved from the Basecamp API for the specified recording. The structure typically includes details about each event such as timestamps, event types, user information, and any relevant metadata describing the event context.
If the API supports binary data for events (e.g., attachments), the node would handle this accordingly, but based on the provided code and properties, the output focuses on JSON event data.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Basecamp API.
- The node depends on the Basecamp API endpoint structured as
https://3.basecampapi.com/{basecampId}where{basecampId}is dynamically set from credentials. - The node uses the
@devlikeapro/n8n-openapi-nodepackage to build properties and manage API requests.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Bucket Id or Recording Id will cause the API request to fail.
- Authentication errors if the API key or OAuth token is not configured correctly.
- Network or permission issues accessing the Basecamp API.
Error messages:
- Unauthorized or 401 errors indicate problems with API credentials; verify and reauthenticate.
- 404 Not Found may mean the specified bucket or recording does not exist or is inaccessible.
- Rate limiting errors require waiting or adjusting API usage.
