Inoreader

Interact with the Inoreader API

Overview

This node integrates with the Inoreader API to manage articles and their organization via tags. Specifically, the "Create in Tag" operation allows users to create a new external article and save it directly under a specified tag in their Inoreader account. This is useful for automating content curation workflows, such as saving web articles or custom content into categorized tags for later reading or processing.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically saving blog posts or news articles fetched from other sources into a specific tag for topic-based organization.
  • Creating notes or summaries as articles and tagging them for project management or research purposes.
  • Integrating with other apps to archive URLs or content snippets into Inoreader under user-defined tags.

Properties

Name Meaning
Tag Name or ID Select the tag where the article will be saved. Choose from the list of existing tags or specify an ID using an expression.
Article URL The URL of the article to save. Required if neither Article Title nor Article Content is provided.
Article Title Optional title of the article. If left empty, Inoreader will attempt to fetch the title from the URL.
Article Content Optional content of the article. If left empty, Inoreader will try to fetch the content from the URL.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Inoreader API after attempting to save the article under the specified tag. This typically includes metadata about the newly created article, such as its ID, URL, title, and associated tags.

If the operation fails, the output JSON may contain an error message describing the issue.

The node does not output binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an OAuth2 API credential configured for Inoreader to authenticate requests.
  • Depends on the Inoreader API endpoints for managing articles and tags.
  • Network connectivity to Inoreader's API service is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Article Identification: If none of articleUrl, articleTitle, or articleContent are provided, the node throws an error because it cannot create an article without any content reference.
  • Invalid or Missing Tag: The tag ID must be valid and exist in the user's Inoreader account; otherwise, the API call will fail.
  • Authentication Errors: Ensure that the OAuth2 credentials are correctly set up and have the required permissions.
  • API Rate Limits or Downtime: Temporary failures might occur due to API limits or service issues; retrying later can help.
  • Error Messages: The node surfaces API error messages in the output JSON under an error field when continueOnFail is enabled.
