Overview
This node interacts with the Basecamp API to retrieve details about a specific subscription. The "Get Subscription" operation under the "Subscriptions" resource fetches information for a particular subscription identified by its bucket and recording IDs. This is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically access subscription data, such as monitoring subscription status, auditing, or integrating subscription details into other workflows.
Practical examples include:
- Fetching subscription details to display in a dashboard.
- Triggering follow-up actions based on subscription attributes.
- Synchronizing subscription data with external systems.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bucket Id | Numeric identifier of the bucket containing the subscription. Required to specify which bucket's subscription to retrieve. |
| Recording Id | Numeric identifier of the specific subscription recording to fetch within the bucket. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the subscription details retrieved from the Basecamp API. This typically includes all relevant fields describing the subscription, such as its status, timestamps, associated user or project info, and any metadata provided by the API.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests to the Basecamp API.
- The node depends on the Basecamp API being accessible and the provided bucket and recording IDs being valid.
- Network connectivity to
https://3.basecampapi.com/is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Credentials: If the API key or OAuth token is missing or incorrect, the node will fail to authenticate. Ensure that valid credentials are set up in n8n.
- Resource Not Found: Providing invalid or non-existent bucket or recording IDs may result in errors indicating the subscription could not be found. Verify the IDs before running the node.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures. Check network access and Basecamp service status.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might trigger rate limiting; handle such errors by implementing retries or backoff strategies.
