Utilize the Accelo API

Actions12

Overview

This node allows you to retrieve requests from the Accelo API using n8n. It is designed for scenarios where you need to search or filter support/service requests managed in Accelo, such as fetching tickets based on a search term or filtering by affiliation. This is useful for automating workflows that require access to request data, such as reporting, notifications, or integrations with other systems.

Example use cases:

  • Fetching all requests containing a specific keyword in their title.
  • Filtering requests by a particular affiliation (e.g., department or team).
  • Integrating Accelo request data into dashboards or sending alerts when new requests match certain criteria.

Properties

Name Meaning
Search Search the request title. Enter a term to find requests whose titles contain this text.
Filters Filter the contacts request. Options:
- Affiliation: Filter requests by affiliation (number).

Output

The output will be a JSON object (or array of objects) representing the retrieved requests from Accelo. Each object typically contains fields relevant to a request, such as its ID, title, status, and any other metadata provided by the Accelo API.

Note: The exact structure depends on the Accelo API response for the "Get Request" operation.

Dependencies

  • External Service: Requires an Accelo account and access to the Accelo API.
  • Credentials: You must configure the acceloApi credential in n8n.
  • Environment: No special environment variables are required beyond standard n8n setup.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Credentials: If your API credentials are incorrect or missing, you may receive authentication errors. Ensure the acceloApi credential is set up correctly in n8n.
  • No Results Found: If your search or filters do not match any requests, the output will be an empty array. Double-check your search terms and filter values.
  • API Limitations: If you exceed Accelo API rate limits, you may encounter error messages indicating throttling. Wait before retrying or adjust your workflow frequency.
