Interact with OpenProject via API

Actions199

Overview

This node integrates with the OpenProject API to perform operations related to project management. Specifically, the "Open Project Storage" operation under the "File Links" resource allows users to access or open a particular project storage by its identifier. This can be useful in scenarios where you want to programmatically retrieve or manipulate files stored within a specific project in OpenProject.

Practical examples include:

  • Automating retrieval of project files for backup or processing.
  • Integrating OpenProject file storage with other systems like document management or cloud storage.
  • Triggering workflows based on file changes or availability within a project.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique numeric identifier of the project storage to open. This is required to specify which project storage the operation targets.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the details or contents of the opened project storage. The exact structure depends on the OpenProject API response but typically includes metadata about the storage and possibly links or references to files contained within it.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown here), it would represent actual file contents retrieved from the project storage.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
  • The base URL for the OpenProject instance must be configured in the credentials.
  • The node uses the OpenProject REST API as defined in the bundled OpenAPI specification (openapi.json).

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid or missing project storage ID: Ensure the "Id" property is set correctly and corresponds to an existing project storage.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to access project storage.
  • Network or connectivity issues: Confirm that the OpenProject instance URL is reachable from n8n.
  • Unexpected API responses: Check if the OpenProject API version matches the one expected by the node; mismatches might cause errors.
