Overview
This node interacts with the Livo API to manage product data within an e-commerce context. Specifically, the "Get Product Detail" operation retrieves detailed information about a single product by its unique identifier. This is useful when you need to fetch comprehensive product details such as name, SKU, price, category, and description for display, processing, or integration purposes.
Common scenarios:
- Fetching product details to display on a website or app.
- Retrieving product information before updating or deleting it.
- Integrating product data into other systems like inventory management or reporting tools.
Example:
You want to get full details of a product with ID "12345" to show on a product page or to verify its current pricing and stock keeping unit (SKU).

- Authentication Errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
- Network Issues: Check connectivity to the Livo API endpoint and SSL certificate validation settings.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might be throttled; handle errors accordingly.
- Error Messages: The node returns error messages from the API in the output JSON under an
