Talent resource from Pulse API

Overview

The "Cancel Quizz Session" operation in the Talent Quizz Sessions resource allows users to cancel an ongoing or scheduled quiz session within the Pulse Talent platform. This is useful when a quiz session needs to be invalidated or stopped before completion, for example, if the candidate withdraws, scheduling conflicts arise, or errors are detected in the quiz setup.

Practical scenarios include:

  • Canceling a quiz session assigned to a candidate who is no longer participating.
  • Stopping a quiz session due to technical issues or changes in recruitment plans.
  • Managing quiz sessions dynamically as part of automated talent acquisition workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
Session ID * The unique identifier of the quiz session to be canceled. This is required to specify which session should be canceled.

Output

The node outputs a JSON object representing the result of the cancellation request. Typically, this will include confirmation details such as the session ID and status indicating that the session has been successfully canceled. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally confirms the cancellation action.

No binary data output is involved in 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 to perform authenticated requests.
  • Proper permissions on the Pulse API side to manage quiz sessions are necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent Session ID will likely cause an error.
    • Network or authentication failures with the Pulse API can prevent successful cancellation.
    • Attempting to cancel a session that is already completed or canceled may return an error or no-op response.

  • Error Messages:

    • "The operation "cancelQuizzSession" is not supported for resource "quizzSessions"!" — indicates a misconfiguration or typo in operation/resource selection.
    • Errors returned from the Pulse API typically include messages about invalid session IDs or permission issues.

  • Resolutions:

    • Verify the Session ID is correct and corresponds to an active session.
    • Ensure the API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions.
    • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability.
    • Use the node's "Continue On Fail" option to handle errors gracefully in workflows.
