Overview
This node operation, "Remove On Hold Section" under the "Card Tables" resource, is designed to remove or clear the "On Hold" section from a specified card table column within a project management or task tracking system. It is useful in scenarios where tasks or cards that were previously put on hold need to be cleared out or removed from visibility, helping teams keep their workflow up-to-date and focused on active items.
For example, if a team uses card tables to track work items and has a dedicated "On Hold" section for paused tasks, this operation can programmatically remove that section when those tasks are no longer relevant or have been resolved elsewhere.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bucket Id | The numeric identifier of the bucket (or board) containing the card table. |
| Column Id | The numeric identifier of the specific column within the bucket from which to remove the "On Hold" section. |
Output
The output of this node operation will typically be a JSON object reflecting the result of the removal action. This may include confirmation of success, details about the updated state of the card table column, or any error messages if the operation failed.
If the node supports binary data output, it would generally relate to attachments or files associated with cards, but based on the provided code and operation, the primary output is JSON data representing the updated card table state.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential or OAuth2 token to authenticate requests to the external service managing the card tables.
- The node depends on the Basecamp API (as indicated by the bundled source referencing Basecamp), so a valid Basecamp account and appropriate permissions are necessary.
- Network access to the Basecamp API endpoint is required.
- Proper configuration of credentials within n8n to allow authenticated API calls.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Invalid or missing Bucket Id or Column Id values leading to failure in locating the target section.
- Authentication errors due to incorrect or expired API credentials.
- Network connectivity issues preventing communication with the Basecamp API.
- Insufficient permissions to modify the specified card table or column.
Error Messages:
- "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API key or OAuth token is correctly configured and valid.
- "Bucket or Column not found": Verify that the provided Bucket Id and Column Id exist and are correct.
- "Permission denied": Ensure the authenticated user has rights to modify the card table.
- "Network error": Confirm network connectivity and Basecamp API availability.
Resolving these typically involves verifying input parameters, refreshing credentials, and ensuring proper network access.
