Overview
This node integrates with the Printcart API to manage projects and other related resources. Specifically, for the Update Project operation, it allows users to update an existing project's details such as its name, status, and note. This is useful in scenarios where project information needs to be modified after creation, for example updating the project status from "processing" to "accepted" or changing the project description.
Practical examples include:
- Updating a project’s status to reflect progress in a workflow.
- Changing the project name or adding notes to provide additional context.
- Automating project updates based on external triggers or data changes.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Authentication | Method of authentication; currently supports only "API Token". |
| Project ID | The unique identifier of the project to update (required). |
| Note | A textual note or comment associated with the project (required when creating/updating). |
| Name | The name of the project (required when creating/updating). |
| Status | The current status of the project. Options: Processing, Accepted, Trashed, Reviewing. |
Output
The node outputs a JSON array containing the response from the Printcart API for the update project request. The JSON structure corresponds to the updated project object returned by the API, typically including fields like project ID, name, status, note, timestamps, and other metadata.
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API token credential for authenticating requests to the Printcart API.
- The node makes HTTP requests to
https://api.printcart.com/v1/projects/{projectId}using PUT method to update project details. - Proper configuration of the API token credential within n8n is necessary.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Project ID will cause the API to reject the request.
- Incorrect or expired API token will result in authentication errors.
- Providing invalid status values outside the allowed options may cause validation errors.
- Network connectivity issues can prevent successful API calls.
Error messages and resolutions:
- 401 Unauthorized: Check that the API token credential is correctly set and valid.
- 404 Not Found: Verify that the provided Project ID exists.
- 400 Bad Request: Ensure all required fields (name, note, status) are provided and valid.
- 500 Internal Server Error: Retry later or contact Printcart support if persistent.
