Consume Prinrcart API

Actions80

Overview

This node integrates with the Printcart API to manage various resources related to print-on-demand services, including fonts. Specifically, the Update Font operation allows users to update an existing font's details such as its name, alias, URL, type, and subset. This is useful in scenarios where you need to maintain or modify font metadata used in your print designs or storefronts.

Practical examples:

  • Updating a font's URL after hosting it on a new CDN.
  • Changing the alias or subset of a font to better organize or categorize fonts in your system.
  • Correcting font metadata without needing to delete and recreate the font resource.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication Method of authentication; currently supports "API Token" for accessing the Printcart API.
Font ID The unique identifier of the font to update. Required to specify which font to modify.
Name The new name for the font.
Alias The new alias for the font, e.g., a friendly or alternative name.
Url The URL where the font file is hosted.
Type The type/category of the font (e.g., example or custom classification).
Subset The subset of characters included in the font (e.g., latin, cyrillic).

Output

The node outputs the JSON response from the Printcart API after performing the update operation. This typically includes the updated font object with all its properties reflecting the changes made.

Example output structure (simplified):

{
  "id": "fontId",
  "name": "Updated Font Name",
  "alias": "Updated Alias",
  "url": "https://example.com/updated-font-url",
  "type": "example",
  "subset": "latin"
}

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active API token credential for authenticating requests to the Printcart API.
  • The node makes HTTP requests to https://api.printcart.com/v1/fonts/{fontId} endpoint using PUT method.
  • Proper network connectivity to the Printcart API service is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Font ID: If the provided Font ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API will likely return a 404 error. Verify the Font ID before updating.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API token will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API token credential is correctly configured.
  • Validation Errors: Omitting required fields like Name, Alias, or Subset may result in validation errors from the API. Make sure all required properties are provided.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request timeouts or failures. Check your network and API availability.
  • API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might be throttled by the API. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency if needed.
