Overview
The custom n8n node for "Sales Order" allows users to interact with the Unleashed inventory management API specifically to retrieve sales order details. This node is beneficial in scenarios where businesses need to automate the retrieval of sales order information, such as integrating sales data into reporting tools or synchronizing order details with other systems. For example, a user might use this node to fetch specific sales orders based on their IDs and then process that data for analytics or customer service purposes.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Sales Order ID | The ID of the sales order (required) used to identify which sales order to retrieve. |
Output
The output of the execute() method will be structured as an array of objects, where each object contains a json field. This field will hold the details of the retrieved sales order(s). If the node can output binary data, it would typically represent files or attachments related to the sales order, but in this case, the focus is on JSON output.
Dependencies
- An API key credential is required to authenticate with the Unleashed API.
- The node relies on the Unleashed inventory management API for fetching sales order data.
Troubleshooting
- Common Issues: Users may encounter issues if the provided Sales Order ID does not exist or is incorrect, leading to errors when attempting to retrieve data.
- Error Messages:
- "Sales Order not found": This indicates that the specified Sales Order ID does not match any existing records. To resolve this, verify the ID being used.
- "Authentication failed": This suggests that the API key credential is missing or incorrect. Ensure that the correct API key is configured in the n8n credentials.
