Overview

This node provides integration with the Billwerk platform, specifically for the "Accounting Export" resource and its "Get Download Link" operation. It allows users to retrieve a download link for a specific accounting export by providing its ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to automate the retrieval of exported accounting data from Billwerk for further processing, archiving, or sharing with external systems.

Practical examples:

Automatically fetch the latest accounting export file link after a scheduled export job.
Integrate with cloud storage or email nodes to distribute the export file to stakeholders.
Use in workflows that require periodic financial reconciliation or reporting.

{
  "downloadLink": "https://api.billwerk.com/accountingExports/12345/download",
  // ...other possible metadata fields
}

downloadLink: A URL string pointing to the downloadable file for the specified accounting export.

Dependencies

External Service: Requires access to the Billwerk API.
API Credentials: You must configure valid Billwerk API credentials (billwerkApi) in n8n.
n8n Configuration: No additional environment variables are required beyond standard credential setup.

Troubleshooting

Invalid Accounting Export ID: If an incorrect or non-existent ID is provided, the node may return an error such as Resource not found or similar. Double-check the ID value.
Authentication Errors: If API credentials are missing or invalid, errors like 401 Unauthorized or 403 Forbidden may occur. Ensure your credentials are correctly set up in n8n.
Network Issues: Connectivity problems between n8n and Billwerk can cause timeouts or connection errors. Verify network access and firewall settings.
API Rate Limits: Excessive requests may trigger rate limiting by Billwerk. If you see errors related to rate limits, consider adding delays or reducing request frequency.
