Overview
This node integrates with the MeisterTask API to create new tasks within a specified project section. It is useful for automating task creation workflows, such as adding tasks from form submissions, issue trackers, or other systems directly into MeisterTask project boards. For example, when a new customer support ticket is received, this node can automatically create a corresponding task in the relevant project section for the team to address.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Section ID | The identifier of the project section where the new task will be created (required). |
| Name | The title or name of the new task (required). |
| Notes | Additional description or details about the task (optional). |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created task as returned by the MeisterTask API. This typically includes fields such as the task's unique ID, name, notes, status, creation timestamps, and any other metadata provided by the API. There is no binary output.
Dependencies
- Requires an API authentication token credential for accessing the MeisterTask API.
- The node sends requests to
https://www.meistertask.com/api. - Proper permissions on the MeisterTask account are necessary to create tasks in the specified project sections.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Section ID: If the provided Section ID does not exist or the user lacks access, the API will return an error. Verify the section ID and user permissions.
- Missing Required Fields: Omitting required properties like "Section ID" or "Name" will cause validation errors before the request is sent.
- Authentication Errors: Ensure the API key or token credential is valid and has sufficient scope to create tasks.
- API Rate Limits: Frequent calls may hit rate limits; handle such errors by implementing retries or backoff strategies.
