N8N Tools - Pipefy Database

Manage Pipefy database tables and records with advanced data operations

Overview

This node enables managing tables within the Pipefy database system, specifically allowing operations such as creating, updating, retrieving, and deleting tables. The "Delete" operation for the "Table" resource removes a specified table by its ID.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include automating database management tasks in Pipefy workflows, such as cleaning up unused tables, or integrating Pipefy table management into broader automation pipelines.

For example, you might use this node to automatically delete a project tracking table once the project is completed, ensuring your Pipefy workspace stays organized without manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
Table ID ID of the table to be deleted

Output

The output JSON contains:

  • success: A boolean indicating whether the deletion was successful.
  • tableId: The ID of the table that was requested to be deleted.
  • message: A string message confirming success ("Table deleted successfully") or failure ("Failed to delete table").

Example output JSON:

{
  "success": true,
  "tableId": "12345",
  "message": "Table deleted successfully"
}

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Pipefy API.
  • Requires a Pipefy-specific API authentication token.
  • The node uses GraphQL queries and mutations to interact with the Pipefy database backend.
  • No additional external dependencies beyond these credentials and network access to Pipefy's API.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Table ID: The node requires a valid Table ID to perform deletion. If omitted or incorrect, it will throw an error indicating the missing required field.
  • API authentication errors: Ensure that the provided API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions to delete tables.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems to the Pipefy API endpoint can cause failures; verify network access.
  • Deletion failure message: If the deletion fails (e.g., due to permissions or non-existent table), the output message will indicate failure. Check the Table ID and user permissions.
