Overview
This node operation "Remove On Hold Section" for the "Card Tables" resource is designed to remove or clear the "On Hold" section from a specified card table column within a given bucket. This can be useful in project management workflows where tasks or cards are temporarily paused ("on hold") and later need to be resumed or removed from that state.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically clearing the "On Hold" section after a certain condition is met (e.g., task dependencies resolved).
- Cleaning up columns by removing paused tasks to focus on active work.
- Integrating with other automation to manage task states dynamically.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Bucket Id | The numeric identifier of the bucket containing the card table where the action applies. |
| Column Id | The numeric identifier of the specific column within the bucket from which to remove the "On Hold" section. |
Output
The output JSON will typically contain confirmation or status information about the removal operation. It may include details such as success status, identifiers of affected elements, or error messages if the operation failed.
If the node supports binary data output, it would generally relate to any files or attachments associated with the cards, but this operation primarily deals with JSON data representing card table structure changes.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Basecamp API service.
- The node depends on the Basecamp API endpoint related to card tables and buckets.
- Proper configuration of the Basecamp account ID and OAuth2 credentials within n8n is necessary.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Bucket Id or Column Id leading to failure in locating the target section.
- Insufficient permissions or expired API tokens causing authentication errors.
- Network connectivity problems preventing API calls.
Error messages:
- "Bucket not found" or "Column not found": Verify that the provided IDs are correct and exist in the Basecamp account.
- "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API credentials are valid and have not expired.
- "Request timeout" or "Network error": Ensure stable internet connection and Basecamp API availability.
Resolving these usually involves verifying input parameters, refreshing credentials, and checking network status.
