OpenProjectInstall

Overview

This node operation lists all attachments associated with a specific post in the OpenProject system. It is useful when you want to retrieve and display or process files and documents linked to a particular post, such as comments, updates, or discussions within a project management context.

Practical examples include:

• Fetching all files attached to a project update to archive or analyze them.
• Displaying attachments related to a post in a custom dashboard.
• Automating backup of post attachments for compliance or record-keeping.

Properties

Output

The output contains a JSON array of attachment objects related to the specified post. Each object typically includes metadata about an attachment such as filename, file size, content type, URL or download link, and possibly other descriptive fields depending on the API response.

If the node supports binary data output, it would represent the actual file contents of the attachments; however, based on the provided code snippet, only JSON metadata output is indicated.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
• Needs the base URL of the OpenProject instance configured in the node credentials.
• Depends on the OpenProject REST API being accessible and the user having permission to read post attachments.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid Post ID: If the provided post ID does not exist or is incorrect, the node may return an error or empty results. Verify the post ID before running.
• Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key and URL are correctly set.
• Permission Denied: The authenticated user must have rights to view the post and its attachments; otherwise, access errors will occur.
• Network Issues: Connectivity problems with the OpenProject server can lead to timeouts or failed requests.
