Consume ScaleFluidly API

Actions224

Overview

This node integrates with the ScaleFluidly API, allowing users to perform various operations across multiple resources such as quotes, configuration, pricing, admin, and MCP. Specifically, for the Configure resource and the Search Product Categories operation, the node sends a custom JSON request body to the ScaleFluidly API endpoint responsible for searching product categories within the configuration domain.

Typical use cases include:

  • Searching and retrieving product category data from ScaleFluidly's configuration system.
  • Automating workflows that require dynamic access to product category information based on specific search criteria.
  • Integrating product category searches into larger sales or inventory management automation processes.

For example, a user might want to search product categories by certain attributes or filters defined in the JSON request body, then use the results to update a catalog or trigger further processing.

Properties

Name Meaning
Environment The target environment for the API call. Options: Dev (https://documentation-dev.scalefluidly.com), QA (https://documentation.scalefluidly.com), Local (http://localhost:8400). This determines which ScaleFluidly instance the node interacts with.
Request A JSON object representing the request body sent to the API for the "Search Product Categories" operation. This contains the search parameters and filters used to query product categories.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects corresponding to the response from the ScaleFluidly API for the search request. Each item in the output array represents the data returned by the API for one input item processed.

  • The json field contains the parsed JSON response from the API, typically including product category details matching the search criteria.
  • There is no explicit binary data output for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the ScaleFluidly API endpoints, which may be hosted on different environments (Dev, QA, Local).
  • Optionally uses an API authentication token if provided in the input headers; otherwise, it attempts to use configured credentials named generically as an API key credential.
  • No additional external dependencies beyond standard HTTP requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Bearer token not found error: If the first input item does not contain an authorization header with a bearer token, and no credentials are configured, the node will throw an error. Ensure that either the input includes a valid authorization token or the node is configured with appropriate API credentials.
  • Operation not found error: If the specified operation (intent) does not match any known URL mapping, the node will throw an error indicating the operation was not found. Verify that the operation name is correct and supported.
  • Invalid JSON in Request property: Since the request body is user-defined JSON, malformed JSON will cause the API call to fail. Validate the JSON syntax before running the node.
  • Environment URL issues: Selecting an incorrect or unreachable environment URL will result in connection errors. Confirm the environment setting matches the intended ScaleFluidly instance.
