Consume Autotask REST API

Actions389

Overview

This node integrates with the Autotask REST API to manage Contract Exclusion Billing Codes. Specifically, the 'Create' operation allows users to add new contract exclusion billing codes by mapping input fields to the API's expected data structure. This is useful for automating contract management workflows where certain billing codes need to be excluded from contracts, ensuring accurate billing and contract compliance.

Properties

Name Meaning
Fields Defines the mapping of input data fields to the contract exclusion billing code properties for creation. Users specify which fields to include and how they map to the API's contract exclusion billing code attributes.

Output

JSON

  • id - The unique identifier of the created contract exclusion billing code.
  • name - The name of the contract exclusion billing code.
  • description - A description of the contract exclusion billing code.
  • active - Indicates whether the contract exclusion billing code is active.
  • createdDate - Timestamp when the contract exclusion billing code was created.

Dependencies

  • Requires an Autotask API key credential for authentication to access the Autotask REST API.

Troubleshooting

  • Error: 'Resource contractExclusionBillingCode is not supported' - Ensure the resource name is correctly set to 'contractExclusionBillingCode'.
  • Error: Missing required fields in the 'Fields' mapping - Verify that all mandatory fields for creating a contract exclusion billing code are mapped.
  • Authentication errors - Confirm that the Autotask API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions.
  • API rate limits - If requests fail due to rate limiting, consider adding delays or checking Autotask API usage limits.
