0-CodeKit

Overview

The 0-CodeKit node, when configured with the AI resource and the Language Detection operation, detects the language of a given text input. This is useful in workflows where you need to automatically identify the language of user-generated content, emails, support tickets, or any other textual data before further processing (such as translation, routing, or analytics).

Practical examples:

• Automatically route customer support tickets to agents based on detected language.
• Pre-process incoming messages for translation services.
• Analyze social media posts to determine their language distribution.

Properties

Output

The output will be a JSON object containing the result of the language detection. While the exact structure depends on the external service's response, it typically includes fields such as:

• The detected language code (e.g., "en" for English, "fr" for French).
• Possibly a confidence score or probability.
• The original text.

Example output:

{
  "language": "en",
  "confidence": 0.98,
  "text": "Hello, how are you?"
}

If an error occurs and "Continue On Fail" is enabled, the output may include:

{
  "error": "Error message string"
}

Dependencies

• External Service: Requires access to the CodeKit API for AI operations.
• API Key: You must configure the codeKitApi credential in n8n for authentication.

Troubleshooting

Common issues:

• Missing or invalid API key: Ensure that the codeKitApi credential is correctly set up in n8n.
• Empty or invalid text input: The "Text" property is required; providing an empty value will likely result in an error.
• Service errors: If the external API is unavailable or returns an error, the node will either throw an error or return an error object if "Continue On Fail" is enabled.

Common error messages:

• "Missing required parameter: text" – Make sure the "Text" field is filled.
• "Invalid API credentials" – Check your API key configuration.
• "Network error" or "Service unavailable" – Try again later or check network connectivity.
