Overview
This node interacts with the Inoreader API to manage and retrieve articles within a user's Inoreader account. Specifically, the "Get Many From Folder" operation fetches multiple articles from a specified folder. This is useful for workflows that need to process or analyze batches of articles grouped in folders, such as content curation, automated tagging, or exporting articles for further processing.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically retrieving the latest 50 articles from a specific folder to summarize or send via email.
- Integrating with other tools to archive or analyze articles stored in a particular folder.
- Filtering articles by folder before applying additional automation steps like tagging or marking as read.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Folder Name or ID | Select the folder to get articles from. Choose from the list of available folders or specify an ID using an expression. |
| Limit | Maximum number of articles to return from the selected folder. Must be at least 1. Defaults to 50. |
Output
The output consists of multiple items, each representing an article retrieved from the specified folder. Each item contains a json field with the article's data as returned by the Inoreader API. The structure includes metadata such as article ID, title, author, content snippet, publication date, and other relevant fields provided by Inoreader.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an authenticated connection to the Inoreader API using OAuth2 credentials.
- The node uses HTTP requests to interact with Inoreader endpoints.
- Proper configuration of the OAuth2 credential in n8n is necessary to authorize API calls.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Folder ID: If the folder ID is not provided or invalid, the node will throw an error indicating no stream ID was resolved. Ensure the folder is selected or the correct ID is passed.
- API Authentication Errors: If authentication fails, verify that the OAuth2 credentials are correctly set up and have the required permissions.
- Limit Parameter Issues: Setting the limit below 1 may cause errors; ensure it is a positive integer.
- Empty Results: If the folder has no articles or the user lacks access, the output may be empty. Confirm the folder contents and permissions.
- Rate Limits: Excessive requests might trigger API rate limits; consider adding delays or reducing request frequency.
