Overview
This node manages companies within the TANSS API, allowing users to create, retrieve, update, delete companies, and fetch employees of a company. It is useful in scenarios where you need to automate company data management or integrate company-related workflows with the TANSS system. For example, you can automatically add new companies from a CRM, update company details based on external data, remove obsolete companies, or list employees for reporting purposes.
The specific operation "Unternehmen löschen" (Delete Company) deletes a company by its ID from the TANSS system.

Dependencies
- Requires an active TANSS API credential with a valid base URL and API token.
- The node uses HTTP requests to communicate with the TANSS backend API.
- The user must configure the TANSS API credentials in n8n before using this node.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Credentials: If no API credentials are found, the node throws an error "Keine Anmeldedaten gefunden!" Ensure that the TANSS API credentials are properly set up in n8n.
- Invalid Company ID: Providing an invalid or non-existent company ID may cause the API to return an error. Verify the company ID before attempting deletion.
- Empty Fields Error: Although not applicable for delete operation, other operations require fields; ensure required fields are provided.
- API Errors: Any HTTP or API errors during the request will be caught and reported with messages like "Fehler beim Ausführen von deleteCompany:
". Check network connectivity and API token validity. - Unrecognized Operation: If an unsupported operation is selected, the node will throw an error indicating the operation is not recognized.
