OpenProjectInstall

Overview

This node operation allows users to create a non-working day entry within a work schedule in OpenProject. It is useful for marking specific dates as holidays, company-wide off days, or any other type of non-working day that affects project scheduling and resource planning. For example, a project manager can use this node to add public holidays or special leave days so that task deadlines and resource allocations automatically account for these non-working periods.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the created non-working day resource as returned by the OpenProject API. This includes details such as the assigned ID, date, name, and type of the non-working day. There is no binary output.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the OpenProject API.
• Needs the base URL of the OpenProject instance configured in the node credentials.
• Depends on the OpenProject REST API being accessible and properly configured to accept work schedule modifications.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:
  • Invalid or missing API credentials will cause authentication errors.
  • Incorrect date format may lead to validation errors from the API.
  • Network connectivity problems can prevent the node from reaching the OpenProject server.
• Error messages:
  • Authentication failures usually indicate invalid or expired API tokens; recheck and update credentials.
  • Validation errors often specify which property is incorrect; ensure the date is in ISO format and required fields are filled.
  • HTTP errors like 404 or 500 suggest endpoint misconfiguration or server issues; verify the base URL and API availability.
