Overview

This node integrates with the Actaport API, a cloud-based legal practice management software. Specifically, the "Aufgaben" (Tasks) resource with the "Create" operation allows users to create new tasks within Actaport. This is useful for automating task creation related to legal cases, deadlines, or internal workflows.

Typical scenarios include:

  • Automatically creating follow-up tasks when certain case events occur.
  • Assigning tasks to specific users or groups based on workflow triggers.
  • Adding detailed metadata such as due dates, priorities, and related documents to tasks programmatically.

Example: When a new legal case is added, this node can create a task for a responsible lawyer with a due date and attach relevant case documents.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Actaport API.
  • The base URL for the API must be configured in the node credentials.
  • The node sends HTTP POST requests to the /aufgaben endpoint of the Actaport API.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • Validation errors: Missing required fields like task title or invalid date formats may cause the API to reject the request. Verify all required properties are provided and correctly formatted.
  • API endpoint errors: Network issues or incorrect base URL configuration can prevent communication with the Actaport API.
  • User/Recipient IDs: Providing invalid or non-existent user IDs in recipients or reviewers will likely cause errors; verify these IDs exist in Actaport.
