Overview
This node integrates with Medullar, an AI-powered discovery and insight platform, to manage and interact with "Spaces" — collaborative digital environments for organizing information. Specifically, the Add Space Record operation allows users to add new records (pieces of content) into a selected Space.
Typical use cases include:
- Adding textual notes or insights directly into a Space.
- Linking URLs as references or resources within a Space.
- Uploading images or files to enrich the Space's content repository.
For example, a user might automate adding meeting notes (text) or relevant web links (URL) into a project Space after each meeting, helping keep all related information centralized and accessible.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Space Name or ID | Select one of your existing Spaces by name or ID where the record will be added. |
| Source Type | The type of content being added. Options: URL, Text, Image, File. |
| Content | The actual text content of the record. Required if Source Type is Text. |
| URL | The URL to add as a record. Required if Source Type is URL. |
Output
The node outputs a JSON array where each item corresponds to the result of adding a record to the specified Space. Each output item contains the response data from the Medullar API about the newly created record, typically including identifiers and metadata confirming successful addition.
If the record involves binary data (e.g., image or file), the node handles uploading that content accordingly, but the output primarily focuses on JSON metadata describing the added record.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Medullar platform.
- The node depends on Medullar's REST API endpoints to perform operations such as adding records.
- The method
getUserSpacesis used to dynamically load available Spaces for selection. - Proper configuration of the API credential in n8n is necessary for successful requests.
Troubleshooting
- Missing required fields: If you select
Textas the source type but leave the Content field empty, the operation will fail. Similarly, selectingURLrequires a valid URL input. - Invalid Space ID: Providing an incorrect or unauthorized Space ID will cause API errors.
- API authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
- Network issues: Connectivity problems can lead to request timeouts or failures.
- Error messages: The node may throw errors like
Ask Space failedor generic API errors; these usually indicate issues with parameters or API access and should be resolved by verifying inputs and credentials.
Using the node’s "Continue On Fail" option can help handle errors gracefully during batch executions.
