ecoDMSInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the ecoDMS document management system, allowing users to manage various resources such as archives, documents, classifications, searches, folders, licenses, and document types. Specifically, for the "Ordner erstellen" (Create Folder) operation under the "Ordner" (Folder) resource, the node enables creating a new folder within ecoDMS.

Typical use cases include automating folder creation in ecoDMS when organizing documents or setting up new projects, ensuring consistent folder structures without manual intervention. For example, after receiving a new client order, an automated workflow can create a dedicated folder named after the client to store all related documents.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the folder creation operation. This typically includes information about the newly created folder such as its unique identifier, name, description, and possibly metadata returned by the ecoDMS API.

If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent file contents or attachments related to the folder, but this operation primarily deals with folder metadata.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to an ecoDMS server.
• Needs credentials containing at least the server URL and authentication token/API key to access the ecoDMS API.
• The node expects the server URL to be configured in the credentials; otherwise, it throws an error.
• No other external dependencies are indicated.

Troubleshooting

• Error: "Server-URL ist nicht konfiguriert. Bitte in den Anmeldedaten angeben."
  This means the server URL is missing in the credentials configuration. To fix, ensure the ecoDMS API credentials include a valid server URL.

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

• General Processing Errors
  Any unexpected errors during execution are wrapped and reported with a message "Fehler bei der Verarbeitung" (Error during processing). Check the underlying cause, such as network issues, invalid parameters, or API permission problems.
