ScaleFluidlyInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the ScaleFluidly API to perform various operations related to quotes, configuration, pricing, and administrative tasks. Specifically for the Quote resource and the Get Activity Timeline operation, it retrieves the activity timeline associated with a quote, which typically includes historical actions, updates, or events related to that quote.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

• Tracking changes and activities on sales quotes to monitor progress or audit history.
• Integrating quote activity data into CRM or reporting workflows.
• Automating notifications or follow-ups based on quote activity events.

For example, a sales team could use this node to fetch all recent activities on a particular quote to display in their dashboard or trigger alerts when certain milestones are reached.

Properties

The Request property must be provided as a JSON object and contains the necessary parameters for the "Get Activity Timeline" operation (such as quote identifiers or filters). This input is required.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the response from the ScaleFluidly API for the requested operation. For the "Get Activity Timeline" operation, the output JSON will contain details about the timeline of activities related to the specified quote, such as timestamps, action types, user information, and descriptions of each event.

If the API returns binary data (not typical for this operation), it would be included accordingly, but primarily the output is structured JSON data describing quote activities.

Dependencies

• Requires access to the ScaleFluidly API endpoint corresponding to the selected environment (Dev, QA, or Local).
• Optionally uses an API authentication token if provided in the input data headers; otherwise, it attempts to use configured credentials.
• No explicit external libraries beyond n8n's standard HTTP request helpers are needed.

Troubleshooting

• Bearer token not found: If the first input item does not contain an authorization header with a bearer token and no credential is configured, the node will throw an error. Ensure that either the input data includes a valid authorization token or proper API credentials are set up in n8n.
• Operation not found: If the operation name does not map to a known API endpoint, an error will be thrown. Verify that the operation parameter matches one of the supported operations.
• Invalid request body: The request_info JSON must be correctly formatted and include all required fields for the API call. Malformed JSON or missing required parameters will cause API errors.
• Environment URL issues: Selecting the wrong environment or having network connectivity problems to the chosen API URL can result in request failures.
