Zep v3

Interact with Zep Cloud v3 API

Overview

The "Get Graph" operation of the Zep node allows users to retrieve detailed information about a specific knowledge graph stored in the Zep Cloud v3 API. This operation is useful when you want to fetch metadata and current state of a graph, such as its name, description, fact rating instructions, and other properties.

Typical use cases include:

  • Inspecting an existing graph before performing updates or analyses.
  • Retrieving graph details for display or reporting purposes.
  • Integrating graph data retrieval into automated workflows that depend on graph metadata.

For example, a user might want to get the details of a customer interaction graph to verify its configuration or to pull its description for documentation.

Properties

Name Meaning
Graph ID The unique identifier of the graph to retrieve. This is required to specify which graph to get.

Output

The output of the "Get Graph" operation is a JSON object representing the graph's details as returned by the Zep Cloud API. It typically includes fields such as:

  • graph_id: Unique identifier of the graph.
  • name: The name of the graph.
  • description: A textual description of the graph.
  • fact_rating_instruction: Optional instructions related to fact rating within the graph.
  • Other metadata fields relevant to the graph's configuration and status.

The output is structured as a JSON array with one item per input item processed, each containing the graph information.

No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Zep Cloud v3 API.
  • Requires an API key credential configured in n8n for authentication with the Zep API.
  • Network access to https://api.getzep.com must be available.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Graph ID: If the Graph ID parameter is empty or incorrect, the API call will fail. Ensure the Graph ID is correctly specified.
  • Authentication errors: If the API key credential is missing or invalid, requests will be rejected. Verify the API key setup in n8n credentials.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems to the Zep API endpoint can cause failures. Check network access and proxy settings if applicable.
  • API rate limits: Excessive requests may trigger rate limiting by the Zep API. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency if needed.

Common error messages:

  • "Unknown graph operation: get": Indicates the operation name was not recognized; ensure "get" is selected as the operation.
  • HTTP 404 Not Found: The specified Graph ID does not exist.
  • HTTP 401 Unauthorized: Authentication failed due to invalid or missing API key.
