Interact with OpenProject via API

Actions199

Overview

This node interacts with the OpenProject API to retrieve details about a specific Time Entry Activity. It is useful when you need to fetch information about a particular time tracking activity recorded in OpenProject, such as for reporting, auditing, or integration purposes.

A practical example would be automating the retrieval of time entry activities by their ID to display detailed information in a dashboard or to synchronize time tracking data with another system.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique identifier of the Time Entry Activity to retrieve. This is a required numeric value specifying which activity's details to fetch.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the details of the requested Time Entry Activity. This typically includes fields such as the activity's ID, name, description, and any other metadata provided by the OpenProject API related to that time entry activity.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
  • The node expects the base URL of the OpenProject instance to be configured in the credentials.
  • The node uses standard HTTP headers to request and accept JSON responses from the API.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing API credentials will cause authentication failures.
    • Providing an invalid or non-existent Time Entry Activity ID will result in errors or empty responses.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.
  • Error messages:

    • Authentication errors typically indicate incorrect or expired API keys; verify and update credentials.
    • "Not Found" errors suggest the specified Time Entry Activity ID does not exist; confirm the ID is correct.
    • Timeout or connection errors may require checking network settings or API availability.
