Overview
This node integrates with the Apaleo API to manage financial folios related to hospitality operations. Specifically, the POST folio operation allows users to create a new folio by submitting its definition in JSON format. This is useful for automating billing and accounting workflows within hotel management systems, such as generating invoices or tracking charges associated with reservations.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically creating a folio when a guest checks in.
- Generating folios for group bookings or special offers.
- Integrating folio creation into broader booking or reservation automation workflows.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Folio Data | The complete definition of the folio in JSON format. This includes all necessary details to create the folio in the Apaleo system. |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the response from the Apaleo API after attempting to create the folio(s). Each item corresponds to one input item processed and contains the resulting folio data returned by the API.
If the node encounters errors and is set to continue on failure, the output will include error messages alongside empty JSON objects for failed items.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API authentication token credential for the Apaleo API.
- The node uses the base URL
https://api.apaleo.comand expects JSON content-type headers. - Proper permissions on the Apaleo account are needed to create folios via the API.
Troubleshooting
- Common issues:
- Invalid or incomplete JSON in the "Folio Data" property can cause API errors.
- Missing or expired API authentication token will result in authorization failures.
- Insufficient permissions on the Apaleo account may prevent folio creation.
- Error messages:
- Errors returned from the Apaleo API will be included in the node output if "Continue On Fail" is enabled.
- Typical errors include validation errors on the folio JSON structure or authentication errors.
- Resolution:
- Validate the JSON structure before sending.
- Ensure the API token is valid and has required scopes.
- Check user permissions in the Apaleo portal.
