Pipefy

Interact with Pipefy GraphQL API

Overview

This node integrates with the Pipefy GraphQL API to perform various operations on Pipefy resources. Specifically, for the User resource and the Get Current operation, it retrieves information about the currently authenticated user. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch details about the user who is making the API request, such as their ID, name, email, or other profile information.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically personalizing workflows based on the current user's identity.
  • Logging or auditing actions performed by the user.
  • Fetching user-specific settings or permissions before proceeding with further automation steps.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication Method of authenticating with Pipefy API. Options:
- Service Account
- Personal Access Token

Output

The node outputs a JSON array containing the data returned from the Pipefy API about the current user. The structure typically includes user profile fields such as user ID, name, email, and possibly other metadata related to the user account.

If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would be summarized accordingly, but this node primarily returns JSON data representing user information.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Pipefy GraphQL API.
  • Requires either a service account credential or a personal access token credential for authentication.
  • No additional external dependencies beyond the Pipefy API and n8n's credential management.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: Ensure that the provided API key or token is valid and has sufficient permissions to access user data.
  • API rate limits: If requests fail due to rate limiting, consider adding delays or upgrading your Pipefy plan.
  • Empty or unexpected responses: Verify that the credentials correspond to an active user and that the Pipefy API is reachable.
  • Network issues: Confirm network connectivity and that no firewall rules block access to the Pipefy API endpoint.
