sevDeskInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the sevDesk API to retrieve information about parts, specifically allowing users to get the current stock level for a given part. It is useful in inventory management scenarios where you need to monitor or automate workflows based on stock availability. For example, you could use this node to trigger reorder processes when stock falls below a threshold or to update dashboards with real-time stock data.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing details about the current stock of the specified part. The exact structure depends on the sevDesk API response but typically includes fields such as the part's ID, name, and its current stock quantity. If the node supports binary data output, it would represent related files or attachments, but this node primarily deals with JSON data representing stock information.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to the sevDesk API.
• Users must provide valid API authentication credentials (an API key or token) configured within n8n.
• Network access to https://my.sevdesk.de/api/v1/ is necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Common Issues:

  • Invalid or missing Part ID: Ensure the Part ID is provided and corresponds to an existing part in sevDesk.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API credentials are correctly set up and have sufficient permissions.
  • Network issues: Confirm that your environment can reach the sevDesk API endpoint.

• Error Messages:

  • Unauthorized or 401 errors indicate invalid or expired API credentials.
  • 404 errors may mean the specified Part ID does not exist.
  • Timeout or network errors suggest connectivity problems.

Resolving these usually involves checking input values, refreshing credentials, and ensuring stable internet connectivity.
