Overview
This node integrates with the Actaport API, a cloud-based legal practice management software. Specifically, the "Aufgaben" (Tasks) resource with the "Update" operation allows users to update existing tasks in Actaport by specifying the task ID and various optional fields to modify.
Typical use cases include:
- Updating task details such as title, description, due date, status, priority, and recipients.
- Modifying associated case information or linked documents.
- Adjusting task visibility by adding users for notification ("Zur Kenntnis") or review ("Zur Prüfung").
- Managing notes related to the task.
For example, a legal office could automate updating task statuses or details when certain events occur in their workflow, ensuring task data stays current without manual entry.

Dependencies

- The base URL for the API must be configured in the credentials.
- The node uses HTTP PUT requests to update tasks via the Actaport REST API.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid Aufgabe ID: The update operation requires a valid task ID. Ensure the ID is correct and exists in Actaport.
- Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
- Invalid field values: Some fields like dates or enumerations (status, priority) must conform to expected formats or allowed values. Check the Actaport API documentation for valid inputs.
- Network issues: Ensure connectivity to the Actaport API endpoint and that the base URL is correctly configured.
- API rate limits or server errors: If the API returns errors, check for rate limiting or temporary service issues.
