Overview
This node interacts with the Roblox Cloud API to retrieve information about group roles within a specified Roblox group. Specifically, the "Get Group Roles" operation fetches the list of roles defined in a Roblox group identified by its Group ID.
This node is useful for scenarios where you need to programmatically access and manage Roblox group data, such as automating role audits, synchronizing group roles with other systems, or displaying group role information in dashboards or reports.
Example use cases:
- Fetching all roles of a Roblox group to display them on a website.
- Automating role-based permissions management by retrieving current roles before applying changes.
- Integrating Roblox group role data into external user management systems.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Group ID | The Roblox group ID to retrieve roles from. This is a required string input identifying the target group. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing the list of roles associated with the specified Roblox group. Each role typically includes details such as role name, rank, description, and permissions (depending on the API response structure).
If the node supports binary data output, it would generally relate to any media or files returned by the API, but based on the provided code and operation, the output is purely JSON structured data representing group roles.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the Roblox Cloud API.
- The base URL for API requests is
https://apis.roblox.com. - The node expects the API key to be provided via n8n credentials configuration.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid Group ID: Ensure that the Group ID property is provided and correctly formatted as a string representing a valid Roblox group.
- Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions to access group data.
- API rate limits or connectivity issues: Check network connectivity and Roblox API status if requests fail or time out.
- Unexpected API responses: Confirm that the Roblox group exists and that the API endpoint has not changed.
