Overview
This node integrates with the LearningSuite API to retrieve information about course modules. Specifically, the "Get Course Modules" operation fetches all modules associated with a specified course by its name or ID. This is useful in educational platforms or learning management systems where you want to automate workflows involving course content, such as syncing course structures, generating reports, or triggering actions based on module data.
Practical examples:
- Automatically retrieving all modules of a course to display them in a custom dashboard.
- Syncing course module data with another system for analytics or content management.
- Triggering notifications or follow-up tasks when new modules are added to a course.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Course Name or ID | The identifier of the course whose modules you want to retrieve. You can select from a list loaded dynamically or specify an ID using an expression. |
Output
The node outputs a JSON array where each item represents a course module retrieved from the LearningSuite API. Each module object typically contains details such as module ID, title, description, and other metadata related to the course structure.
If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent files or media associated with modules, but this operation primarily returns structured JSON data about modules.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the LearningSuite API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The base URL for the API must be set in the credentials.
- The node depends on internal handlers mapped to resource-operation pairs to perform API calls.
Troubleshooting
- No handler error: If you see an error like
No handler for resource "course" and operation "getModules", ensure that the resource and operation names are correctly set and supported by the node version. - Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to access course data.
- Empty results: Confirm that the provided course ID exists and that the course has modules assigned.
- Expression errors: When using expressions to specify the course ID, ensure the expression syntax is correct and resolves to a valid value.
