CompanyCam

Node for connecting CompanyCam

Overview

This node connects to the CompanyCam API, enabling users to interact with various CompanyCam resources. Specifically, for the User resource and the Retrieve Current User operation, it fetches details about the currently authenticated user. This is useful in scenarios where you want to personalize workflows based on the current user's information or verify the identity and permissions of the user executing the workflow.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically tagging photos or projects with the current user's name or ID.
  • Logging actions performed by the current user.
  • Customizing notifications or reports based on user details.

Properties

Name Meaning
(none) For this operation, no additional input properties are required or supported.

Note: The provided properties JSON contains only notices indicating that some parts are not yet built and informational messages; no actionable input properties are defined for this operation.

Output

The output JSON will contain the data representing the current user's details as returned by the CompanyCam API. This typically includes fields such as user ID, name, email, role, and other profile-related information.

If the node supports binary data output, it would be related to user profile images or attachments, but based on the static analysis, this operation focuses on JSON user data only.
