Discuss Kit

Consume Discuss Kit API

Overview

This node interacts with the Discuss Kit API to manage comments and other discussion-related resources. Specifically, for the "Comment" resource and the "Unpin" operation, it allows users to unpin a comment from a post. This is useful in scenarios where a previously pinned comment should no longer be highlighted or featured at the top of a discussion thread.

Practical examples include:

  • Unpinning an outdated or resolved comment in a forum or community discussion.
  • Managing comment visibility dynamically based on moderation actions.
  • Automating comment management workflows in content platforms that use Discuss Kit.

Properties

Name Meaning
Comment ID The unique identifier of the comment to unpin

Output

The output is a JSON object representing the response from the Discuss Kit API after attempting to unpin the specified comment. It typically contains details about the updated state of the comment or the post it belongs to. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally confirms whether the unpin action was successful.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the Discuss Kit API.
  • Needs an API authentication token or API key credential configured in n8n to authorize requests.
  • Uses the internal helper function to make HTTP requests to the Discuss Kit endpoints.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Comment ID: Ensure the Comment ID provided exists and is correct.
    • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key or token is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
    • Network or API downtime: Check network connectivity and Discuss Kit service status.
  • Error messages:

    • "Comment not found": The Comment ID does not exist; verify the ID.
    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check API credentials.
    • "Failed to unpin comment": Could indicate permission issues or invalid request format.

Resolving these usually involves verifying input parameters, checking credentials, and ensuring the Discuss Kit API is reachable.
