ecoDMS

ecoDMS-Integration für n8n

Overview

This node integrates with the ecoDMS document management system, allowing users to manage various aspects such as archives, documents, classifications, searches, folders, licenses, and document types. Specifically, for the Klassifikation (Classification) resource and the Dokumente verknüpfen (Link Documents) operation, it enables linking or unlinking documents to a given document classification by its ID.

Typical use cases include:

  • Organizing documents by associating them with specific classifications.
  • Automating document categorization workflows.
  • Managing document relationships within ecoDMS based on classification criteria.

For example, you might use this node to link multiple scanned invoices to a "Finance" classification automatically after processing them in an OCR workflow.

Properties

Name Meaning
Klassifikations-ID The ID of the document classification for which document links should be added or removed.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the result of the requested operation. The exact structure depends on the operation performed but generally includes confirmation of linked or unlinked documents and any relevant metadata returned by ecoDMS.

If binary data is involved (not indicated for this operation), it would represent file contents or attachments related to documents.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to an ecoDMS server.
  • Needs configuration of credentials containing the ecoDMS API URL and authentication token.
  • The node expects the ecoDMS server URL to be set in the credentials; otherwise, it throws an error.

Troubleshooting

  • Error: "Server-URL ist nicht konfiguriert."
    This means the ecoDMS server URL is missing in the credentials. To fix, configure the API URL in the node's credential settings.

  • Unsupported Resource Error
    If a resource other than those supported is selected, the node will throw an error indicating the resource is not supported.

  • Operation Failures
    Errors during linking/unlinking documents may occur due to invalid classification IDs, network issues, or permission problems on the ecoDMS server. Verify the classification ID exists and that the API user has sufficient rights.
