Jiandaoyun

Overview

This node interacts with the Jiandaoyun API to manage data records within specified apps and entries. Specifically, the "Delete Many Data Record" operation under the "Data" resource allows users to delete multiple data records at once by providing a list of their IDs. This is useful for batch cleanup or removal of outdated or incorrect data in bulk.

Common scenarios include:

• Removing multiple form submissions or entries from an app simultaneously.
• Automating data maintenance tasks where many records need deletion based on certain criteria.
• Integrating with workflows that require bulk deletion after processing data elsewhere.

Example: Suppose you have an app collecting survey responses and want to delete all responses older than a certain date. You can gather those record IDs and use this node operation to delete them in one request.

Properties

Output

The output is a JSON array representing the response from the Jiandaoyun API after attempting to delete the specified data records. Each item corresponds to the result of the deletion request.

• The json field contains the API response data, which typically includes success confirmation or error details.
• No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to the Jiandaoyun API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
• The node uses the base URL provided by the credential to send authenticated HTTP POST requests.
• No additional external dependencies are required.

Troubleshooting

• Error: dataRecordIdsJson must be an array
  This occurs if the "Data Record ID List (JSON)" property is not a valid JSON array. Ensure the input is a properly formatted JSON array of strings or numbers representing record IDs.

• API Authentication Errors
  If authentication fails, verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions to delete data records.

• Maximum Records Limit
  The API limits batch deletions to 100 records per request. Attempting to delete more may cause errors. Split large lists into batches of 100 or fewer.

• Invalid App ID or Entry ID
  Ensure the provided App ID and Entry ID correspond to existing resources in your Jiandaoyun account.

• Network or API Errors
  Check network connectivity and Jiandaoyun service status if requests fail unexpectedly.
