CompanyCam

Node for connecting CompanyCam

Overview

The node connects to the CompanyCam API, specifically enabling operations related to photos within projects. The "Retrieve Photo" operation under the "Photo" resource allows users to fetch details of a specific photo stored in CompanyCam. This is useful for workflows that need to access image metadata or verify photo information as part of project management or documentation processes.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically retrieving photo details after an upload to trigger further processing.
  • Integrating photo data into reports or notifications.
  • Synchronizing photo metadata with other systems.

Properties

Name Meaning
Resource The type of entity to interact with; here it is set to "Photo".
Operation The action to perform on the resource; here it is "Retrieve Photo".

Note: The provided properties JSON contains only notices indicating incomplete implementation and does not define input parameters for this operation. Typically, for "Retrieve Photo," you would expect inputs like a photo ID or project ID to specify which photo to retrieve.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved photo's details from CompanyCam. This typically includes metadata such as photo ID, URL, timestamps, associated project info, and possibly user or tag associations.

If binary data output is supported (e.g., the actual image file), it would be included in a binary property, but no explicit indication of binary output is present in the source code.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the CompanyCam API.
  • The base URL for API requests is https://api.companycam.com/v2.
  • No additional external dependencies are indicated.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid API credentials: Ensure the API key is correctly configured in n8n credentials.
  • Incomplete implementation notices: The node currently shows notices indicating some parts are not fully built. Users might encounter limited functionality or missing input fields.
  • API errors: If the photo ID or other required parameters are missing or incorrect, the API will return errors. Verify all necessary inputs are provided once implemented.
