Overview

The Panel → Duplicate Card operation in this n8n node allows users to create a copy of an existing card within a panel, optionally moving it to a different step and archiving the original. This is useful for workflow automation scenarios where you need to replicate tasks, deals, or items—such as duplicating a sales opportunity to a new stage, or creating a template-based process for recurring activities.

Practical examples:

  • Automatically duplicate a task card to a new step when a certain condition is met.
  • Create a backup of a card before making significant changes.
  • Move a deal to another phase while keeping a record of the original.

Properties

Display Name Type Meaning
Card ID String The unique identifier of the card to be duplicated.
Step ID String The target step (stage) where the duplicated card will be placed.
Archive Original Card Boolean If enabled, the original card will be archived after duplication.
Fields MultiOptions Specifies which fields to include in the duplicated card. Options include All, Amount, Contacts, CustomFields, DueDate, MonetaryAmount, Notes, ResponsibleUser, Tags, Undefined.

Output

  • The output is a single item with a json field containing the result of the duplication operation.
  • The structure of the json object typically includes details about the newly created (duplicated) card, such as its ID, title, step, and any other included fields as specified by the "Fields" property.
  • No binary data is produced by this operation.

Example output:

{
  "id": "new_card_id",
  "title": "Duplicated Card Title",
  "stepId": "target_step_id",
  "archived": false,
  // ...other fields depending on selected options
}

Dependencies

  • External Service: Requires access to the WTS CRM API.
  • API Key: You must configure valid credentials (wtsApi) in n8n for authentication.
  • n8n Configuration: Ensure the node has access to the necessary credentials and that the base URL (https://api.wts.chat) is reachable from your n8n instance.

Troubleshooting

Common issues:

  • Missing Card ID: If the "Card ID" property is empty, the node will throw an error:
    "CardID is empty, please fill it in"
    • Resolution: Provide a valid Card ID.
  • Invalid Step ID: If the provided Step ID does not exist, the duplication may fail.
  • API Authentication Errors: If the API key is missing or invalid, authentication errors will occur.
  • Field Selection Issues: Selecting undefined or incompatible fields may result in incomplete duplication.

Error messages and resolutions:

  • "CardID is empty, please fill it in"
    → Make sure to specify the Card ID of the card you want to duplicate.
  • "Request failed with status code 401"
    → Check your API credentials.
  • "Step ID not found"
    → Verify that the Step ID exists in the target panel.
