OpenProject

Interact with OpenProject via API

Actions199

Overview

This node interacts with the OpenProject API to retrieve detailed information about a specific project. The "View Project" operation under the "Projects" resource allows users to fetch data for a single project by its unique identifier. This is useful in scenarios where you want to integrate project details into your workflows, such as displaying project status, metadata, or syncing project information with other systems.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically fetching project details when a new task is created.
  • Integrating project data into reporting dashboards.
  • Triggering notifications based on project attributes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique numeric identifier of the project to view. This is required to specify which project’s details should be retrieved.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the full details of the specified project as returned by the OpenProject API. This typically includes fields such as project name, description, status, start and end dates, and other metadata associated with the project.

If the API supports it, the output may also contain nested objects or arrays describing related entities like members, tasks, or custom fields.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
  • The base URL for the OpenProject instance must be configured in the node credentials.
  • The node depends on the OpenProject REST API being accessible and properly configured to allow read access to projects.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing project ID will result in errors or empty responses.
    • Incorrect API credentials or insufficient permissions can cause authentication failures.
    • Network connectivity problems or incorrect base URL configuration will prevent successful API calls.
  • Error messages:

    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
    • "Not Found" or "Project does not exist": Verify the project ID is correct and the project exists in OpenProject.
    • "Network Error" or timeout: Confirm network access to the OpenProject server and that the base URL is correctly set.
