Hudu

Interact with Hudu REST API

Overview

This node interacts with the Hudu REST API to perform various operations on different resources. Specifically, for the List resource with the Get operation, it retrieves detailed information about a specific list identified by its unique ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch and use list data within an automated workflow, such as integrating list details into reports, syncing with other systems, or triggering actions based on list content.

For example, you might use this node to:

  • Retrieve a particular list's metadata before updating or processing it.
  • Fetch list details to display or log them in another system.
  • Use list information as part of a conditional workflow step.

Properties

Name Meaning
List ID The unique identifier of the list you want to retrieve. This is required to specify which list to get.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved list's details from the Hudu API. The structure typically includes all relevant fields describing the list, such as its ID, name, description, creation date, and any other metadata provided by the API.

If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent associated files or attachments related to the list, but for the Get operation on lists, the output is primarily JSON.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Hudu REST API.
  • Needs an API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests.
  • The base URL for the Hudu API must be set in the node credentials.
  • No additional external dependencies are indicated.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or empty List ID will result in errors or no data returned.
    • Network connectivity problems or incorrect API credentials can cause authentication failures.
    • If the specified list does not exist, the API may return a "not found" error.
  • Error messages:

    • Errors thrown by the node will include messages from the Hudu API, such as "List not found" or "Unauthorized".
    • To resolve, verify that the List ID is correct, the API key is valid, and the Hudu service is reachable.
    • Enable debug logging in the node settings to get detailed input/output logs for troubleshooting.
