Pulse Talent

Talent resource from Pulse API

Overview

This node interacts with the "Education" resource of a talent management API, specifically supporting the Update Education operation. It allows users to update an existing education record associated with a talent profile. This is useful in scenarios where educational details such as degree, institution, or dates need correction or updating after initial entry.

Practical examples include:

  • Correcting the name of the institution or degree for a talent's education history.
  • Updating the start or end dates if they were initially entered incorrectly.
  • Adding an end date when the education has been completed (previously left empty if ongoing).

Output

The node outputs a JSON object representing the updated education record. This typically includes all the updated fields such as talent ID, education ID, education name, institution, degree, start and end dates, and possibly metadata returned by the API (e.g., timestamps, status).

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Pulse API.
  • The node depends on the Pulse API service to perform updates on education records.
  • Proper configuration of the API credentials within n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Invalid or missing Talent ID or Education ID will cause the update to fail.
    • Incorrect date formats for start or end dates may result in API errors.
    • Network or authentication failures due to invalid API credentials.
  • Error Messages:

    • "The operation "updateEducation" is not supported for resource "education"!" — indicates a misconfiguration or unsupported operation selection.
    • API error messages related to invalid IDs or permissions should be checked against the API documentation.
  • Resolutions:

    • Verify that all required fields are correctly filled.
    • Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
    • Confirm date fields use the correct ISO 8601 format.
    • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability.
