Overview
The node integrates with the Lexware API, enabling users to interact with various Lexware resources such as Articles, Contacts, Invoices, Quotations, and more. Specifically, for the "Quotations" resource with the "Get Many" operation, the node retrieves multiple quotation records from Lexware. This is useful for scenarios where you need to fetch a list of quotations for reporting, analysis, or further processing within an n8n workflow.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically retrieving all quotations created in a given period to generate summary reports.
- Fetching quotations to synchronize with another system or database.
- Using the quotations data to trigger follow-up actions like sending reminders or updating statuses.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Page | The page number of the quotations list to retrieve. Pagination allows fetching results in chunks if there are many quotations. Default is 0 (usually the first page). |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the quotations retrieved from Lexware. Each object corresponds to a single quotation record with its associated fields as provided by the Lexware API.
If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown here), it would typically represent attachments or files related to quotations, but this is not indicated in the provided code snippet.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Lexware API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The node depends on the Lexware API being accessible and properly authenticated.
- No additional external dependencies are indicated beyond the Lexware API.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Incorrect or missing API credentials will cause authentication failures.
- Requesting a page number that does not exist may return empty results.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent access to the Lexware API.
Error messages:
Unsupported resource: quotations— This would occur if the resource parameter is incorrectly set; ensure "quotations" is selected.- API errors returned from Lexware (e.g., rate limits, invalid parameters) should be checked in the node's execution logs.
Resolutions:
- Verify API credentials and permissions.
- Confirm the correct resource and operation are selected.
- Check network connectivity and Lexware API status.
