Overview
This node integrates with the Flowyteam API to manage various business resources, including project categories. Specifically, for the "Project Category" resource and the "Create" operation, it allows users to create a new project category by specifying its name. This is useful in scenarios where you want to organize projects into different categories for better management and reporting.
Practical examples:
- Creating a new project category called "Marketing Campaigns" to group all marketing-related projects.
- Adding a category like "Internal Tools" to separate internal development projects from client-facing ones.
Properties

| Category Name | The name of the project category |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created project category as returned by the Flowyteam API. This typically includes details such as the category's unique identifier, name, creation timestamp, and possibly other metadata related to the project category.
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Flowyteam API.
- Needs an API authentication token or API key credential configured in n8n to authorize requests.
- The node depends on the Flowyteam API endpoints for project category management.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures.
- Providing an empty or invalid category name may result in API validation errors.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.
Error messages and resolutions:
- Authentication error: Verify that the API key or token is correctly set up in n8n credentials.
- Validation error for category name: Ensure the "Category Name" property is not empty and meets any length or character requirements imposed by the API.
- Network timeout or unreachable host: Check your internet connection and the availability of the Flowyteam API service.
