Overview

The "Update Account" operation within the Quote resource of the ScaleFluidly node allows users to update account information by sending a custom JSON request body to the ScaleFluidly API. This node acts as a flexible interface to interact with various ScaleFluidly API endpoints, including updating account details in a quote context.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Automating updates to account data related to quotes in a sales or CRM workflow.
  • Integrating ScaleFluidly's quote management capabilities into broader automation pipelines.
  • Customizing account information dynamically based on upstream workflow data.

For example, a user might use this node to update billing or contact information for an account associated with a quote after receiving new customer input.

Properties

Name Meaning
Environment The target environment for the API call. Options are:
- Dev (https://documentation-dev.scalefluidly.com)
- QA (https://documentation.scalefluidly.com)
- Local (http://localhost:8400)
Request A JSON object representing the request body sent to the API to update the account. This must be provided and should contain all necessary fields as per the ScaleFluidly API specification for updating accounts.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects corresponding to the responses from the ScaleFluidly API for each input item processed. Each output JSON object contains the API response data resulting from the update account request.

No binary data output is produced by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the ScaleFluidly API endpoint specified by the chosen environment.
  • Optionally uses an API authentication token if provided in the input data headers under authorization.
  • No explicit internal credential names are exposed; users must configure appropriate API authentication externally.
  • The node relies on n8n's HTTP request helper methods to perform authenticated requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Bearer token not found: If the first input item does not contain an authorization header with a bearer token, and no prior token was stored, the node will throw an error. Ensure that the input data includes valid authorization headers or that credentials are configured properly.
  • Operation not found: If the operation name does not map to a known API endpoint, the node throws an error indicating the operation is invalid. Verify the operation parameter matches supported operations.
  • Invalid JSON in Request: Providing malformed JSON in the Request property will cause the API call to fail. Validate JSON syntax before execution.
  • API Endpoint Unreachable: Selecting an incorrect environment URL or network issues may cause request failures. Confirm environment URLs and network connectivity.
