Interact with Runn.io API

Overview

This node integrates with a service to manage client data, specifically allowing the creation of new clients. It is useful in scenarios where you want to automate adding client information into your system from workflows, such as onboarding new customers or syncing client databases.

For example, you can use this node to automatically create a client record when a new lead is captured via a form or CRM, ensuring your client list stays up-to-date without manual entry.

Properties

Name Meaning
Name The name of the client to be created.
Website The website URL of the client (optional).
Options Additional optional settings for client creation (currently no specific options defined).

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the result of the client creation operation. Each object contains the details of the newly created client as returned by the external API.

If an error occurs and the node is configured to continue on failure, the output will contain an object with an error field describing the issue.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the external API service managing clients.
  • Needs an API authentication token or key configured in n8n to authorize requests.
  • The node depends on internal helper modules that handle API communication and operations for clients.

Troubleshooting

  • Unsupported resource error: If the resource parameter is set incorrectly, the node throws an error indicating the resource is unsupported. Ensure "Clients" is selected as the resource.
  • API errors: Errors from the external API (e.g., invalid credentials, network issues) will cause the node to fail unless "Continue On Fail" is enabled.
  • Missing required fields: The "Name" property is mandatory; omitting it will likely cause the API call to fail.
  • To resolve errors, verify API credentials, ensure required properties are provided, and check network connectivity.

Links and References

  • Refer to the external API documentation for client management to understand supported fields and options.
  • n8n documentation on how to configure API credentials and use custom nodes.
