Overview
The "WeeDB String Create" node allows you to create and store a new string entry in a WeeDB database. This node is useful when you need to persistently save simple string data within your n8n workflows, such as logging messages, storing user input, or saving temporary values for later retrieval.
Example scenarios:
- Saving form submissions or user feedback as strings.
- Logging workflow events or error messages.
- Storing configuration snippets or small text blobs for use in subsequent workflow steps.
Properties
| Display Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Data | String | String Data to save. |
- Data: The string value you want to store in the WeeDB database.
Output
The node outputs a JSON object with an item representing the newly created string entry in WeeDB. The structure of the output will look like:
[
{
"item": {
// Fields returned by WeeDB's create method, typically including at least:
// - id: Unique identifier of the stored string
// - data: The string value you saved
// - (other metadata fields if provided by WeeDB)
}
}
]
Dependencies
- WeeDB: Requires access to a WeeDB database instance.
- Credentials: You must configure a credential named
weeDBConnectionin n8n, which should include a validdatabaseId.
Troubleshooting
- Failed to initialize WeeDB:
If you see this error, it means the node could not connect to the specified WeeDB database. Double-check that yourweeDBConnectioncredentials are correctly set up and that thedatabaseIdis valid. - Missing required property 'Data':
Ensure you provide a value for the "Data" field before executing the node.
