Overview

This node interacts with the Discuss Kit API to manage various content types including blogs, discussions, bookmarks, documents, comments, labels, boards, and search queries. Specifically for the Blog - Delete operation, it deletes a blog post identified by its unique Content ID. This is useful in scenarios where you want to programmatically remove outdated or unwanted blog posts from your Discuss Kit-powered platform.

Practical examples:

  • Automatically deleting blog posts that are no longer relevant.
  • Cleaning up test or draft blog entries after publishing.
  • Integrating blog deletion into a larger workflow that manages content lifecycle.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the Discuss Kit API endpoint.
  • Needs an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
  • Uses internal helper function to make HTTP DELETE requests to /api/blogs/{id}.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Content ID: The node requires a valid blog post ID; ensure the ID exists and is correct.
    • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key or token is correctly set up and has permissions to delete blog posts.
    • Network or API downtime: Check connectivity and Discuss Kit service status.

  • Error messages:

    • "404 Not Found": The blog post with the given ID does not exist. Confirm the ID is correct.
    • "401 Unauthorized" or "403 Forbidden": Authentication failed or insufficient permissions. Recheck API credentials.
    • "400 Bad Request": Possibly malformed request parameters. Ensure the Content ID is properly formatted.

Resolving these typically involves verifying input parameters, checking API credentials, and ensuring the Discuss Kit service is operational.
