Straker Verify

Interact with Straker Verify API

Actions8

Overview

The node interacts with the Straker Verify API to manage translation projects and related resources. Specifically, the Project - Get operation retrieves detailed information about a single project by its ID. This is useful when you want to fetch the current status, metadata, or other details of a specific translation project managed in Straker Verify.

Common scenarios include:

  • Fetching project details to display or log them in a workflow.
  • Using project data to trigger conditional logic based on project status.
  • Integrating project information into reporting or dashboards.

Example: You have a project ID from a previous step and want to get all details about that project to decide whether to proceed with further processing or notify stakeholders.

Project ID The unique identifier of the project to retrieve.

Output

The output is a JSON object containing the full details of the requested project as returned by the Straker Verify API. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes fields such as project name, status, languages involved, deadlines, and other metadata.

No binary data is output for this operation.

Example output snippet (conceptual):

{
  "id": "12345",
  "name": "Website Localization",
  "status": "In Progress",
  "sourceLanguage": "en",
  "targetLanguages": ["fr", "de"],
  "deadline": "2024-07-01T00:00:00Z",
  ...
}

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Straker Verify API.
  • Needs an API key credential configured in n8n for authentication.
  • The base URL for the API can be customized via credentials; defaults to http://localhost:11001 if not set.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Project ID: Ensure the "Project ID" property is provided and correctly formatted.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network issues or incorrect base URL: Confirm the API endpoint is reachable and the base URL is correctly configured.
  • API errors: If the API returns an error (e.g., project not found), the node will throw an error with the HTTP status code. Check the project ID and API access rights.
