Overview
This node integrates with the SEO Content Machine API to manage and interact with "Task" resources. Specifically, for the Data operation on a Task, it retrieves detailed data associated with a specified task. This is useful when you want to programmatically access the results or metadata of a content generation or SEO-related task managed by the SEO Content Machine.
Common scenarios include:
- Fetching generated content or analysis results from a previously created SEO task.
- Automating workflows that depend on task data output for further processing or reporting.
- Integrating SEO Content Machine task data into other systems or dashboards.
Example: After starting a content generation task in SEO Content Machine, use this node's Data operation to retrieve the generated content data for review or publication.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Task | The specific SEO Content Machine task to operate on. You can select a task from a searchable list or specify its ID directly. |
The "Task" property supports two modes:
- From List: Search and select an existing task by name or other attributes.
- By ID: Provide the unique identifier of the task manually (must match the pattern
[a-zA-Z0-9\-_]{2,}).
Output
The node outputs a JSON object under the json field containing the data retrieved from the SEO Content Machine API for the specified task. This typically includes all relevant details and results related to the task's data endpoint.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the SEO Content Machine API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The node uses authenticated HTTP requests to communicate with the SEO Content Machine service.
- Proper API credentials must be set up in n8n under the node's credential settings.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Task ID: If the provided task ID does not match the expected format or does not exist, the API will likely return an error. Ensure the task ID is correct and accessible.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has necessary permissions.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems between n8n and the SEO Content Machine API endpoint can cause request failures. Check network access and API availability.
- Malformed JSON in Update Operations: Although not applicable to the Data operation, other operations requiring JSON input may fail if the JSON is invalid. Use proper JSON formatting.
If the node is set to continue on failure, errors will be included in the output for each failed item; otherwise, execution will stop at the first error.
