Interact with the Basecamp API

Overview

This node operation "Uncomplete Todo" for the "Todos" resource interacts with a project management system to mark a specific todo item as not completed. It is useful in scenarios where a user needs to revert the status of a task that was previously marked done, allowing for task reactivation or correction of completion errors.

Practical examples include:

  • Reopening a task that was mistakenly marked complete.
  • Reactivating a todo item when additional work is required.
  • Managing task workflows dynamically based on changing project requirements.

Properties

Name Meaning
Bucket Id ID of the project bucket containing the todo. This identifies the project context.
Todo Id ID of the specific todo item to be marked as uncompleted.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the updated state of the todo item after it has been marked as uncompleted. This typically includes fields such as the todo's ID, status, and other metadata reflecting its current state.

If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent any associated files or attachments related to the todo item.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Basecamp API service.
  • The node configuration must include the Basecamp account ID to construct the correct API base URL.
  • Network access to the Basecamp API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Bucket Id or Todo Id will cause the operation to fail.
    • Authentication errors if the API key or OAuth token is invalid or expired.
    • Network connectivity problems preventing access to the Basecamp API.
  • Error messages:

    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check and refresh your API credentials.
    • "Not Found" or "Invalid ID": Verify that the Bucket Id and Todo Id are correct and exist.
    • "Request timeout" or "Network error": Ensure stable internet connection and API availability.
