Overview
The node "Listmonk" allows interaction with a listmonk instance, which is an open-source self-hosted newsletter and mailing list manager. Specifically, the "Get Media by ID" operation under the "Media" resource retrieves detailed information about a media object stored in listmonk by its unique identifier.
This operation is useful when you need to fetch metadata or details of a specific media item, such as images or files previously uploaded to listmonk, for use in campaigns or templates. For example, you might want to retrieve the URL or properties of an image to embed it in an email campaign dynamically.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| ID | The unique identifier of the media object to retrieve. This is a required string input that specifies which media item to fetch from listmonk. |
Output
The output of this operation will be a JSON object representing the media item identified by the provided ID. This typically includes fields such as the media's URL, filename, size, type, and any other metadata stored in listmonk for that media object.
If the media includes binary data (e.g., the actual file content), it may be accessible via a URL or reference rather than embedded directly in the output.
Dependencies
- Requires connection to a listmonk instance.
- Requires credentials for authentication: a domain URL, username, and password for the listmonk API.
- The node uses HTTP Basic Authentication to communicate with the listmonk API endpoint.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid ID or Media Not Found: If the provided ID does not correspond to any media object, the API will likely return a 404 error. Verify the ID is correct and that the media exists.
- Authentication Errors: Incorrect credentials or domain URL will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API credentials are valid and the domain URL is correctly configured without trailing slashes.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the listmonk server will prevent fetching media. Check network access and firewall settings.
- API Changes: If the listmonk API version changes, some fields or endpoints might differ. Confirm compatibility with your listmonk version.
