Overview
This node integrates with Nextcloud Deck, a project management tool that uses boards, stacks, cards, and comments to organize tasks. Specifically, the "Board Aktualisieren" (Update Board) operation allows users to update properties of an existing board within Nextcloud Deck.
Typical use cases include:
- Renaming a board to reflect updated project names or phases.
- Changing the color of a board for better visual organization or priority marking.
- Automating board updates as part of workflow automation, e.g., updating board titles based on external triggers or data changes.
Example: Automatically rename a board when a related project name changes in another system, keeping your task boards synchronized.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Board | Select a board from a searchable list or specify its numeric ID directly to identify which board to update. |
| Titel | (Optional) The new title/name for the board. Can be set via expression or AI-assisted input. |
| Farbe | (Optional) The new color for the board, specified as a hex code without the "#" prefix (e.g., "0066CC"). Can be set via expression or AI-assisted input. |
Output
The node outputs JSON objects representing the updated board data returned from Nextcloud Deck after the update operation. This typically includes the board's current state such as its ID, title, color, and other metadata reflecting the applied changes.
No binary data output is involved.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Nextcloud Deck API.
- The node expects the Nextcloud Deck instance URL and authentication details configured in n8n credentials.
- Network access to the Nextcloud Deck server is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Board ID: If the board ID is not numeric or does not exist, the node will throw an error. Ensure the board ID is correct and accessible.
- Authentication Errors: Failure to authenticate with the Nextcloud Deck API will prevent operations. Verify API credentials and permissions.
- Invalid Color Code: The color must be a valid hex code without "#". Invalid formats may cause errors or be ignored.
- Empty Title or Color: Both fields are optional; if left empty, those properties will not be updated.
- API Rate Limits or Server Issues: Network or server-side problems can cause failures. Check connectivity and Nextcloud Deck server status.
