Overview

This node integrates with the Actaport API, a cloud-based legal practice management software. Specifically, the "Widervorlagen" resource with the "Create" operation allows users to create new reminders (follow-up templates) associated with legal cases.

Use cases include automating the creation of reminders for case follow-ups, deadlines, or important notes that need attention on specific dates. For example, a law firm can use this node to programmatically set reminders for client meetings, document submissions, or court dates linked to particular cases.

Properties

Name Meaning
Laufende Nummer Running number of the case (unique identifier within the case system).
Bezugsjahr Reference year of the case (e.g., 2025).
Grund Reason for the reminder (text describing why the reminder is created).
Vorlagedatum Reminder date (date and time when the reminder should trigger or be noted).
Anmerkung Remark (additional notes or comments about the reminder).

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created reminder object as returned by the Actaport API. This typically includes details such as the reminder's ID, associated case identifiers, reason, reminder date, remarks, and status.

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 structured as /akten/{laufendeNummer}/{bezugsJahr}/wiedervorlagen with the reminder details in the request body.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Required Fields: Ensure that "Laufende Nummer" and "Bezugsjahr" are provided and valid, as they identify the case to which the reminder belongs.
  • Invalid Date Format: The "Vorlagedatum" must be a valid ISO 8601 datetime string; otherwise, the API may reject the request.
  • Authentication Errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • API Endpoint Errors: If the case identified by "Laufende Nummer" and "Bezugsjahr" does not exist, the API will likely return an error indicating the case was not found.
  • Network Issues: Check connectivity to the Actaport API base URL.
