Overview

This node integrates with the Actaport API, a cloud-based legal practice management software. Specifically, the "Widervorlagen" resource with the "Update" operation allows users to update an existing reminder (Wiedervorlage) associated with a legal case.

Typical use cases include:

  • Modifying the details of a reminder for a case, such as changing the reason for the reminder, updating the reminder date, or adding remarks.
  • Keeping reminders up-to-date in automated workflows that manage legal case follow-ups and deadlines.

For example, a law firm could automate updating reminders when new information about a case arises, ensuring all team members have the latest reminder details without manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
Laufende Nummer Running number of the case; identifies the specific case to which the reminder belongs.
Bezugsjahr Reference year of the case; used together with the running number to identify the case.
Wiedervorlage ID The unique identifier of the reminder to be updated.
Grund Reason for the reminder; describes why the reminder exists or what it concerns.
Vorlagedatum Reminder date; the date on which the reminder is set or scheduled.
Anmerkung Remark; additional notes or comments related to the reminder.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the updated reminder object as returned by the Actaport API. This typically includes the updated fields such as reason, reminder date, remarks, and identifiers confirming the successful update.

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 PUT requests to the Actaport API endpoint corresponding to the specified case and reminder IDs.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Incorrect or missing case identifiers (laufendeNummer and bezugsJahr) will cause the API to fail locating the case.
    • Providing an invalid or non-existent wiedervorlageId will result in errors indicating the reminder was not found.
    • Missing required authentication credentials will prevent any API communication.
  • Error messages:

    • 404 Not Found: Usually means the case or reminder ID does not exist. Verify the IDs are correct.
    • 401 Unauthorized: Indicates missing or invalid API credentials. Check the API key configuration.
    • 400 Bad Request: May occur if required fields are missing or contain invalid data formats (e.g., invalid date format for wvVorlagedatum). Ensure all required fields are correctly filled.
