Overview

This node integrates with the sevDesk API to manage various resources, including accounting contacts. Specifically, the Delete operation for the AccountingContact resource allows users to remove an existing accounting contact by its unique ID. This is useful in scenarios where outdated or incorrect contact information needs to be purged from the system to maintain data accuracy.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically deleting accounting contacts that are no longer relevant after a client relationship ends.
  • Cleaning up test or duplicate contacts during data maintenance workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID The unique identifier of the accounting contact to delete. This is a required string input.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects corresponding to each input item processed. For the Delete operation on AccountingContact, the output typically contains confirmation of deletion or any error messages if the operation failed.

  • json: Contains the response from the API after attempting to delete the specified accounting contact.
  • If an error occurs and "Continue On Fail" is enabled, the output will include an error field describing the issue for that particular item.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the sevDesk API via an API key credential.
  • The node expects the environment configuration to be validated before execution.
  • No additional external dependencies beyond the sevDesk API and proper authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent accounting contact ID will result in an error from the API.
    • Missing or incorrect API credentials will prevent successful communication with sevDesk.
    • Network connectivity problems can cause request failures.

  • Error messages:

    • Errors returned from the API will be included in the output under the error field if "Continue On Fail" is enabled.
    • Typical errors include "Not Found" if the ID does not exist, or "Unauthorized" if credentials are invalid.

  • Resolutions:

    • Verify the accounting contact ID is correct and exists in sevDesk.
    • Ensure the API key credential is properly configured and has necessary permissions.
    • Check network connectivity and retry if transient issues occur.
