Overview

This node integrates with the Actaport API, a cloud-based legal practice management software. Specifically, the "Rechnungen" (Invoices) resource with the "Get" operation allows users to retrieve detailed information about a specific invoice by its ID.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Automatically fetching invoice details for legal cases or clients within an automated workflow.
  • Integrating invoice data into other systems such as accounting, CRM, or document management.
  • Triggering follow-up actions based on invoice status or content.

For example, a law firm could use this node to pull invoice data from Actaport and then send payment reminders or update financial records automatically.

Properties

Name Meaning
Rechnung ID The unique identifier of the invoice to retrieve. This is a required string input.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the invoice details fetched from the Actaport API. The structure corresponds to the invoice object returned by the API endpoint /rechnungen/{rechnungId}.

  • The json output contains all available fields of the invoice, such as invoice number, date, amounts, client information, and status.
  • There is no indication that binary data is returned for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Actaport API.
  • The base URL for the API is configured via credentials and defaults to ${baseUrl}/v1.
  • The node sends HTTP GET requests to the endpoint /rechnungen/{rechnungId}.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Rechnung ID: If the invoice ID is not provided or incorrect, the API will likely return an error indicating the invoice was not found. Ensure the ID is correct and exists in Actaport.
  • Authentication errors: If the API key credential is missing or invalid, authentication will fail. Verify that the API key is correctly set up in n8n credentials.
  • Network or API errors: Temporary network issues or API downtime can cause request failures. Check connectivity and Actaport service status.
  • Permission issues: The API user must have sufficient permissions to access invoice data.
