Overview
This custom n8n node interacts with a service managing "Custom Variable Groups." Specifically, the "Get Group by ID" operation retrieves detailed information about a single variable group identified by its unique ID. It optionally includes related entities such as the organization, author, or last editor associated with the group.
This node is useful in automation workflows where you need to fetch metadata or configuration details of variable groups dynamically, for example:
- Retrieving a variable group's details before updating or using it in subsequent steps.
- Auditing or logging information about who created or last edited a variable group.
- Integrating variable group data into reports or dashboards.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Group ID | Unique identifier of the variable group to retrieve. |
| Include Relationships | Optional related entities to include in the response. Possible values: Organization, Author, Last Edited By. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the requested variable group. The structure includes the group's core properties and, if selected, additional related entities such as organization details, author information, and last editor data.
No binary data output is indicated.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key or authentication token configured in n8n to access the external service at
https://api.notificacoesinteligentes.com. - The node uses HTTP requests to communicate with this external API endpoint.
- Proper network connectivity and valid credentials are necessary for successful execution.
Troubleshooting
- Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Group ID will likely cause the request to fail or return no data.
- Authentication errors if the API key or token is not set up correctly.
- Network timeouts or connectivity problems when reaching the external API.
- Error messages:
- Errors related to HTTP status codes (e.g., 401 Unauthorized) indicate credential or permission issues.
- Timeout errors suggest network instability or slow API responses; increasing timeout settings may help.
- Resolutions:
- Verify that the Group ID is correct and exists in the system.
- Ensure API credentials are properly configured in n8n.
- Check network connectivity and retry after some time if the API is temporarily unavailable.
