Overview

This node allows users to delete a specific news item from the OpenProject system by its unique identifier. It is useful in scenarios where outdated or incorrect news entries need to be removed from the project management environment to keep information current and relevant.

For example, if a news announcement was posted by mistake or is no longer applicable, this node can be used to programmatically remove it without manual intervention in the OpenProject interface.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique numeric identifier of the news item to delete

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will include confirmation that the news item was successfully deleted or an error message if the deletion failed.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
  • The node depends on the OpenProject REST API endpoint configured via credentials, including the base URL.
  • Proper permissions are needed on the OpenProject side to delete news items.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent news ID will cause the deletion to fail.
    • Insufficient permissions or invalid API credentials will result in authorization errors.
    • Network connectivity problems may prevent the node from reaching the OpenProject API.
  • Error messages:

    • "Not Found" or similar indicates the specified news ID does not exist.
    • "Unauthorized" or "Forbidden" suggests issues with API authentication or user permissions.
  • Resolutions:

    • Verify the news ID is correct and exists in the OpenProject instance.
    • Check that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient rights.
    • Ensure network access to the OpenProject server is available.
