Overview
This node interacts with the Basecamp API to retrieve details of a specific Todo item within a project bucket. It is useful when you want to fetch information about a particular task (Todo) in a Basecamp project for further processing, reporting, or automation workflows.
For example, you might use this node to:
- Automatically pull the status and details of a Todo to update a dashboard.
- Trigger notifications or follow-up actions based on the content or completion state of a Todo.
- Integrate Basecamp Todos with other tools by extracting their data dynamically.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bucket Id | ID of the project bucket containing the Todo. This identifies the project area where the Todo resides. |
| Todo Id | ID of the specific Todo item to retrieve. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the requested Todo item. This JSON typically includes all relevant fields of the Todo such as its title, description, status, assignees, due dates, and any other metadata provided by the Basecamp API for that Todo.
No binary data output is expected from this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API authentication token credential for Basecamp (OAuth2).
- The node uses the Basecamp API endpoint constructed with the authenticated user's Basecamp account ID.
- Network access to the Basecamp API service is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Bucket Id or Todo Id: If the IDs provided do not exist or are incorrect, the API will return an error indicating the resource was not found. Verify the IDs before running the node.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the OAuth2 credentials are correctly configured and authorized.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests may be throttled by Basecamp. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency if encountering rate limit errors.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause timeouts or failed requests. Check network settings and Basecamp service status.
