Vikunja

Get data from Vikunja's API

Overview

This node integrates with the Vikunja API to manage project views within a project management context. Specifically, the "Delete a Project View" operation allows users to remove a particular view from a specified project. This is useful for cleaning up or reorganizing project views that are no longer needed or relevant.

Practical scenarios include:

  • Removing outdated or redundant project views to maintain clarity.
  • Automating cleanup of project views as part of a larger workflow.
  • Managing project views dynamically based on project lifecycle events.

Properties

Name Meaning
Project Title or ID The target project where the view exists. Can be selected from a searchable list or specified by its ID.
Project View ID The specific project view to delete. Can be selected from a searchable list of views within the chosen project or specified by its ID.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the deletion operation. Typically, this will confirm whether the project view was successfully deleted. There is no indication of binary data output for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Vikunja API.
  • Needs the base URL of the Vikunja instance configured in the credentials.
  • Uses the /projects/{projectId}/views endpoint to search and delete project views.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent project ID or project view ID will cause errors.
    • Insufficient permissions or incorrect API credentials may lead to authorization failures.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent communication with the Vikunja API.
  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "Project not found" — Verify the project ID or select the correct project from the list.
    • "Project view not found" — Ensure the project view ID is correct and belongs to the specified project.
    • "Unauthorized" — Check that the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
    • Timeout or network errors — Confirm network access to the Vikunja server and retry.
