Pulse Talent

Talent resource from Pulse API

Overview

This node interacts with the "Skill" resource of the Pulse API, specifically supporting operations to manage skills associated with talents. The "Delete Skill" operation allows users to remove a skill from the system by specifying its unique identifier. This is useful in scenarios where a skill is no longer relevant or was added erroneously and needs to be cleaned up.

Practical examples include:

  • Removing outdated or deprecated skills from a talent's profile.
  • Cleaning up test or placeholder skills created during data entry.
  • Automating skill management workflows where skills are dynamically added and removed based on external criteria.

Properties

Name Meaning
Skill ID * The unique identifier of the skill to delete

Output

The output of the "Delete Skill" operation is a JSON object representing the result of the deletion request. Typically, this will confirm whether the skill was successfully deleted or provide details if the deletion failed. The exact structure depends on the Pulse API response but generally includes status information and possibly the ID of the deleted skill.

No binary data output is expected for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Pulse API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The node depends on the Pulse API helper utilities bundled within the node's codebase to perform authenticated requests.
  • Proper network access to the Pulse API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent Skill ID will likely result in an error indicating that the skill could not be found.
    • Missing or incorrect API credentials will cause authentication failures.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent the node from reaching the Pulse API.
  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "The operation "deleteSkill" is not supported for resource "skill"!" — This indicates a misconfiguration; ensure the operation and resource parameters are correctly set.
    • Errors related to missing Skill ID parameter — Make sure the Skill ID is provided and is valid.
    • Authentication errors — Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
