Overview
This node interacts with the LearningSuite API to retrieve data related to courses and their associated entities. Specifically, the "Get Course Submissions" operation fetches submissions for a given course. This is useful in educational or training platforms where you want to automate the retrieval of student submissions for assignments, quizzes, or other coursework.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically fetching all submissions for a course to process grades or feedback.
- Integrating course submission data into reporting dashboards.
- Triggering workflows based on new submissions detected in a course.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Course Name or ID | The identifier of the course for which to get submissions. Choose from a list loaded dynamically or specify an ID using an expression. |
Output
The node outputs a JSON array where each item represents a submission related to the specified course. Each submission object typically contains details such as submission metadata, user information, timestamps, and possibly the content or status of the submission.
If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown in the provided code), it would represent any files or attachments submitted by users within the course submissions.
Dependencies
- Requires 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 relies on internal handlers mapped to resource-operation pairs to perform API calls.
Troubleshooting
- No handler for resource and operation: If you see an error like
No handler for resource "course" and operation "getSubmissions", it means the node does not have implemented logic for that combination. Verify that the operation name is correct and supported. - API authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
- Empty or missing submissions: Confirm that the course ID is valid and that there are submissions available for that course.
- Continue on Fail behavior: If enabled, the node will continue processing other items even if one fails, returning error messages alongside input data for failed items.
