Pulse Talent

Talent resource from Pulse API

Overview

The "Update Quizz Session" operation within the "Talent Quizz Sessions" resource allows users to modify existing quiz sessions in the Pulse Talent system. This node is useful for scenarios where you need to update details of a quiz session such as its name or expiration date after it has been created.

Practical examples include:

  • Renaming a quiz session to better reflect its purpose.
  • Extending or shortening the expiration date of a quiz session to control how long candidates have access.
  • Adjusting session details dynamically based on workflow conditions or external triggers.

This operation helps maintain accurate and up-to-date quiz session information, ensuring that talent assessments are managed effectively.

Properties

Name Meaning
Session ID * The unique identifier of the quiz session to update. Required to specify which session to modify.
Name The new name for the quiz session. Useful for renaming or clarifying the session's purpose.
Expires At The new expiration date and time for the session. Controls when the session will no longer be accessible.

Output

The output JSON contains the updated quiz session data returned from the Pulse API after the update operation completes successfully. This typically includes fields such as the session ID, name, expiration date, status, and other metadata reflecting the current state of the quiz session.

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 update quiz sessions are necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent Session ID will result in errors indicating the session could not be found.
    • Missing required properties like Session ID will cause validation errors before the request is sent.
    • Expiration dates set in the past may be rejected by the API or cause unexpected behavior.
  • Error messages:

    • "The operation "updateQuizzSession" is not supported for resource "quizzSessions"!" — indicates a misconfiguration or typo in the operation or resource selection.
    • API errors related to authentication failures suggest checking the API key credential setup.
    • Validation errors from the API about field formats (e.g., invalid date format) require correcting input values.

To resolve these issues, verify all required inputs, ensure the API credentials are valid, and confirm that the session ID exists and is correct.
