Overview

This node integrates with the Actaport API, a cloud-based legal practice management software. Specifically, for the Notizen (Notes) resource and the Create operation, it allows users to create new notes associated with a legal case identified by its running number and reference year.

Typical use cases include:

  • Adding detailed notes or comments to a specific legal case within Actaport.
  • Documenting case progress, observations, or important information related to a case.
  • Automating note creation as part of a larger workflow in legal practice management.

For example, a user can automate the creation of an "Aktennotiz" (case note) with a title and description linked to a particular case number and year, helping maintain organized case documentation.

Properties

Name Meaning
Laufende Nummer Running number of the case to which the note will be attached.
Bezugsjahr Reference year of the case to which the note belongs.
Titel Title of the note being created.
Beschreibung Description or content of the note.
Notiz Typ Type of the note. Currently supports only one option: "Aktennotiz" (case note).

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created note as returned by the Actaport API. This typically includes details such as the note's ID, title, description, type, and metadata confirming successful creation.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Actaport API.
  • The base URL for the Actaport API must be configured in the node credentials.
  • The node sends HTTP POST requests to the endpoint /akten/{laufendeNummer}/{bezugsJahr}/notizen to create notes.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Required Fields: Ensure that Laufende Nummer, Bezugsjahr, Titel, and Beschreibung are provided; otherwise, the API will reject the request.
  • Authentication Errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • Invalid Case Reference: If the specified case (laufendeNummer and bezugsJahr) does not exist, the API may return an error indicating the case was not found.
  • API Endpoint Issues: Confirm the base URL is correct and reachable from your environment.
  • Note Type Limitations: Only the "Aktennotiz" type is supported currently; using other types may cause errors.
