Overview

This node enables interaction with a recruitment management system via its API, specifically focusing on managing pipeline templates among other recruitment-related resources. The "Create Pipeline Template" operation allows users to create new pipeline templates that define structured recruitment workflows or stages within an organizational unit.

Common scenarios for this node include automating the creation of recruitment pipelines tailored to different departments or teams, standardizing hiring processes, and integrating recruitment workflows into broader automation pipelines.

For example, a user can automate creating a new pipeline template named "Engineering Hiring Process" with a description and assign it to the Engineering organizational unit, ensuring consistent candidate progression through predefined stages.

Properties

Name Meaning
Name * The name of the pipeline template to be created.
Description * A textual description explaining the purpose or details of the pipeline template.
Organizational Unit * The organizational unit (e.g., department or team) to which the pipeline template belongs.

Output

The output is a JSON object representing the newly created pipeline template as returned by the recruitment system's API. This typically includes details such as the template's unique identifier, name, description, organizational unit, creation timestamps, and possibly other metadata related to the pipeline template.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the recruitment system's API.
  • Needs an API authentication token or key configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
  • The node depends on internal helper modules to interact with the API but these are bundled and abstracted away from the user.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Missing required fields ("Name", "Description", or "Organizational Unit") will cause the operation to fail.
    • Invalid or expired API credentials will result in authentication errors.
    • Network connectivity issues may prevent communication with the recruitment API.

  • Error Messages:

    • "The operation "createPipelineTemplate" is not supported for resource "pipelineTemplate"!" indicates a misconfiguration or unsupported operation selection.
    • API error messages returned in the error field if continueOnFail is enabled; otherwise, the node execution stops with the error.

  • Resolutions:

    • Ensure all required properties are provided and valid.
    • Verify API credentials and refresh if necessary.
    • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability.
