OpenProject

Interact with OpenProject via API

Actions199

Overview

This node interacts with the OpenProject API to create a copy of an existing project. It is useful when you want to duplicate a project setup, including its configurations and settings, without manually recreating everything from scratch. For example, if you manage multiple similar projects or need to create a template project that can be cloned repeatedly, this operation automates that process.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The numeric ID of the project to copy

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created project copy. This typically includes details such as the new project's ID, name, status, and other metadata returned by the OpenProject API after successful creation. There is no indication that binary data is outputted by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
  • The node configuration must include the base URL of the OpenProject instance.
  • The node depends on the OpenProject REST API being accessible and properly configured to allow project duplication.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:
    • Invalid or missing project ID: Ensure the provided project ID exists in OpenProject.
    • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
    • Network or connectivity problems: Confirm that the OpenProject server URL is correct and reachable.
  • Error messages:
    • "Project not found" — Check that the project ID is correct.
    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed" — Recheck API credentials.
    • "Request timeout" or "Network error" — Verify network connectivity and server availability.
