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.commust 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.
