Nextcloud Tables

Verwalten Sie Ihre Nextcloud Tables - Tabellen, Zeilen und Daten

Overview

This node integrates with Nextcloud Tables, allowing users to manage tables and their data within Nextcloud directly from n8n workflows. Specifically, the "Tabelle Löschen" (Delete Table) operation enables users to delete an existing table by specifying its ID or selecting it from a list.

Common scenarios for this node include:

  • Automating cleanup of outdated or temporary tables in Nextcloud.
  • Managing table lifecycle as part of larger data processing workflows.
  • Integrating Nextcloud Tables management into broader automation pipelines.

For example, a user might set up a workflow that deletes tables older than a certain date or removes test tables after automated data imports.

Properties

Name Meaning
Tabelle Select a table from a searchable list or specify its numeric ID to identify which table to delete.

The "Tabelle" property supports two input modes:

  • List: Search and select from existing tables.
  • ID: Manually enter the numeric ID of the table to delete (must be a number).

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will confirm successful deletion or provide error details if the operation failed.

If the operation fails and "Continue On Fail" is enabled, the output JSON will contain an error field with the error message.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Nextcloud Tables API.
  • The node depends on Nextcloud Tables being accessible via the configured API endpoint.
  • No additional external services are required beyond Nextcloud itself.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Table ID: If the provided table ID does not exist or is invalid, the node will throw an error. Ensure the ID is correct and corresponds to an existing table.
  • Permission Issues: Deleting a table requires appropriate permissions in Nextcloud. Insufficient permissions will cause errors.
  • Network/Authentication Errors: Connectivity issues or invalid API credentials will prevent the operation from succeeding.
  • Error Messages: Errors are logged with context about resource and operation. Common messages include unknown resource errors (if misconfigured), permission denied, or not found errors.

To resolve errors:

  • Verify the table ID or selection.
  • Check API credentials and permissions.
  • Confirm network connectivity to Nextcloud.
