Overview

This node operation, Post Create Integration Credential, is designed to create a new integration credential by sending a POST request to an external API. It is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically add credentials for integrations within a system that supports such operations via an API. For example, automating the onboarding of new users or services by creating their integration credentials without manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID The user identifier required as a header (X-USER-ID) in the API request.
Additional Body Fields Optional additional fields to include in the JSON body of the POST request.
- Data A JSON object string representing extra data to send in the request body under data.

Output

The node outputs the JSON response returned from the API after creating the integration credential. This typically includes details about the newly created credential such as its ID, status, and any metadata provided by the API.

If the API returns binary data (not indicated here), it would be included accordingly, but based on the properties and code, the output is expected to be JSON only.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key or authentication token configured in the node's credentials to authorize requests.
  • Depends on the external API endpoint specified in the node’s base URL configuration.
  • The node uses HTTP headers and JSON body payloads to communicate with the API.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID header: The API requires this header; ensure it is provided and correctly formatted.
  • Malformed JSON in Additional Body Fields: The data field expects valid JSON. Invalid JSON will cause parsing errors.
  • API Authentication Errors: Ensure the API key or authentication token is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or Endpoint Issues: Verify the base URL and network connectivity to the API server.
  • Unexpected API Responses: Check the API documentation for required fields and response formats if errors occur.

  • Refer to the external API documentation for "Create Integration Credential" endpoint for detailed request/response schema.
