Overview
This node operation retrieves a specific column from a card table within a project management or organizational tool that uses the concept of "Card Tables." It is useful when you need to fetch detailed information about a particular column, such as its metadata or configuration, by specifying the bucket and column identifiers. Practical examples include automating workflows that require reading column properties for reporting, synchronization with other tools, or conditional logic based on column data.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bucket Id | The numeric identifier of the bucket containing the target column. This identifies the container or grouping of columns. |
| Column Id | The numeric identifier of the specific column to retrieve within the specified bucket. |
Output
The output will contain a JSON object representing the details of the requested column. This typically includes metadata such as the column's name, type, settings, and possibly its current state or configuration. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally provides all relevant information about the column.
No binary data output is expected from this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential or OAuth2 token configured in n8n to authenticate requests to the external service managing Card Tables.
- The node relies on the external service's API endpoint that supports fetching column details by bucket and column IDs.
- Proper network access and permissions are necessary to query the API.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Bucket Id or Column Id can cause errors or empty responses.
- Authentication failures due to incorrect or expired credentials.
- Network connectivity problems preventing API calls.
- Insufficient permissions to access the specified bucket or column.
Error messages and resolutions:
- "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Verify that the API key or OAuth token is correctly set up and has not expired.
- "Not Found" or "Column does not exist": Check that the Bucket Id and Column Id are correct and that the column exists.
- "Network error" or timeouts: Ensure stable internet connection and that the API endpoint is reachable.
Links and References
- Refer to the official API documentation of the Card Tables service for detailed information on the column resource and its fields.
- Consult n8n documentation on setting up API credentials and using HTTP request nodes if customizations are needed.
