Overview
This node integrates with the CompanyCam API to manage project collaborators. Specifically, the "Create Invitation for Collaboration" operation allows users to invite someone to collaborate on a specific project by creating an invitation linked to that project. This is useful in scenarios where teams or external partners need controlled access to project data and updates within CompanyCam.
Practical examples include:
- Inviting a new contractor or team member to join a project.
- Sending collaboration invitations to clients for project transparency.
- Managing access control by programmatically adding collaborators via automation workflows.
Properties

Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the CompanyCam API after creating the invitation. This typically includes details about the newly created invitation such as its ID, status, invited user's information, and any metadata returned by the API.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
