Overview
This node enables the "Application" resource's "Enable Application" operation in the Housecall Pro API. It sends a POST request to activate or enable a specific application for a company within the Housecall Pro system.
Common scenarios where this node is useful include automating the activation of applications or features for companies managed through Housecall Pro, such as enabling integrations or services programmatically after certain triggers or workflows.
For example, after onboarding a new client, you might want to automatically enable a particular application feature for their account without manual intervention.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Additional Fields | A collection for any extra optional fields that can be added when enabling the application. Currently no predefined options are available. |
Output
The node outputs the JSON response from the Housecall Pro API after attempting to enable the application. This typically includes confirmation details about the enabled application status or any relevant metadata returned by the API.
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Housecall Pro API.
- The base URL used for requests is
https://api.housecallpro.com. - The node uses HTTP POST method to
/application/enableendpoint to perform the enable action.
Troubleshooting
- Authentication errors: If the API key is missing or invalid, the node will fail to authenticate. Ensure a valid API key credential is configured.
- API endpoint errors: If the
/application/enableendpoint is unavailable or returns an error, verify the Housecall Pro service status and that the account has permission to enable applications. - Empty or invalid additional fields: Since the "Additional Fields" collection currently has no defined options, providing unsupported fields may cause request failures. Use only supported parameters if documented by the API.
- Network issues: Connectivity problems to the Housecall Pro API server will cause request failures; check network access and proxy settings if applicable.
