Overview

This node operation allows you to retrieve the list of budgets associated with a specific project in OpenProject. It is useful when you want to monitor or analyze the financial planning and budget allocations for a given project directly within your n8n workflow. For example, you might use this node to fetch budget data to generate reports, trigger alerts if budgets exceed certain thresholds, or integrate budget information into other systems.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique identifier (ID) of the project whose budgets you want to view. This is a required numeric field.

Output

The output will contain JSON data representing the budgets of the specified project. Each item in the output corresponds to a budget entry related to that project, typically including details such as budget amounts, time periods, and possibly status or other metadata depending on the OpenProject API response.

If the node supports binary data output, it would generally be used for file attachments or reports, but based on the provided code and operation, the output here is purely JSON data about budgets.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
  • The node uses the OpenProject REST API endpoint configured via credentials, specifically targeting the base URL of the OpenProject instance.
  • No additional external dependencies are indicated beyond the OpenProject API access.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing project ID: Ensure the "Id" property is set correctly and corresponds to an existing project.
    • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to access project budgets.
    • Network or connectivity problems: Confirm that the OpenProject instance URL is reachable from the n8n environment.

  • Error messages:

    • Unauthorized or 401 errors usually indicate invalid or expired API credentials.
    • 404 errors may mean the project ID does not exist or budgets are not available for the specified project.
    • Timeout or network errors suggest connectivity issues or misconfigured base URL.

Resolving these typically involves checking credentials, verifying project IDs, and ensuring network access.
