Nextcloud DeckInstall

Overview

This node integrates with Nextcloud Deck, a project management tool that organizes tasks into boards, stacks, cards, and more. Specifically, the "Stack" resource with the operation "Alle Stacks Abrufen" (Retrieve All Stacks) allows users to fetch all stacks associated with a particular board in Nextcloud Deck.

Common scenarios for this node include:

• Automating retrieval of task stacks from a specific board to synchronize with other tools.
• Generating reports or dashboards based on the current stacks within a board.
• Triggering workflows based on the stacks present in a board.

For example, a user might select a board by its ID and retrieve all stacks to analyze their statuses or to create backup snapshots.

Properties

The "Board" property supports two modes:

• List: Search and select from available boards.
• ID: Manually enter the board's numeric ID (validated to accept only numbers).

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects, each representing data returned by the handler for the requested resource-operation combination. For the "Stack" resource with the "Alle Stacks Abrufen" operation, the output JSON contains details about the stacks belonging to the specified board.

The exact structure of each stack object depends on the Nextcloud Deck API response but typically includes stack identifiers, names, positions, and related metadata.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Nextcloud Deck API.
• The node expects the Nextcloud Deck instance to be accessible via configured credentials.
• No additional external dependencies are indicated beyond the API authentication.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid Board ID: If the board ID entered is not numeric or does not exist, the node may throw an error. Ensure the board ID is correct and exists in your Nextcloud Deck instance.
• Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up.
• Unknown Resource Error: If the resource parameter is set incorrectly, the node throws an "Unbekannte Ressource" (Unknown Resource) error.
• Continue On Fail: If enabled, errors during execution will be captured in the output JSON under an error field instead of stopping the workflow.
