Overview
This node integrates with the Discuss Kit API to manage comments within a discussion platform. Specifically, the "Update Content" operation for the "Comment" resource allows users to update the textual content of an existing comment by its ID.
Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:
- Editing user-submitted comments to correct mistakes or add additional information.
- Moderation workflows where comments need to be updated before approval.
- Automated systems that modify comment content based on external triggers or rules.
For example, you could use this node to update a comment's content after receiving new data from another system or to fix typos in a comment without deleting and recreating it.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Comment ID | The unique identifier of the comment to update. |
| Content | The new content of the comment, provided as a JSON string representing the comment text. |
Output
The output is a JSON object representing the updated comment returned from the Discuss Kit API. It typically includes fields such as the comment's ID, updated content, timestamps (including the updatedAt field set during update), and possibly metadata related to the comment.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Discuss Kit API endpoint.
- Needs an API authentication token or key configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
- Uses the internal helper function to make HTTP requests to the Discuss Kit API.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Comment ID: If the provided Comment ID does not exist, the API will likely return an error indicating the comment was not found. Verify the Comment ID is correct.
- Malformed Content: Since the content is expected as a JSON string, ensure it is properly formatted. Invalid JSON may cause request failures.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will result in authorization errors. Confirm that the API key/token is correctly configured.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might trigger rate limiting; handle such errors by implementing retries or backoff strategies.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures; verify network access to the Discuss Kit API.
