Overview

This node interacts with the Autotask REST API to update an existing holiday record. It allows users to specify the ID of the holiday they want to update and map the fields they wish to change. This is useful for automating updates to holiday data in Autotask, such as changing holiday names, dates, or other attributes. For example, a user can update a holiday's date or description programmatically as part of a workflow that manages company schedules or time-off policies.

Properties

Name Meaning
Holiday ID The unique identifier of the holiday record to update. This is required to specify which holiday will be modified.
Fields A resource mapper input that defines which fields of the holiday record to update and their new values. It supports defining fields manually or using auto-mapping features to specify the update data.

Output

JSON

  • id - The unique identifier of the updated holiday record.
  • name - The name of the holiday after update.
  • date - The date of the holiday after update.
  • description - Additional description or details of the holiday after update.

Dependencies

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

Troubleshooting

  • If the Holiday ID is invalid or does not exist, the node will throw an error indicating the holiday could not be found. Verify the ID is correct.
  • If required fields for the update are missing or incorrectly mapped, the API may reject the request. Ensure all mandatory fields are provided and correctly formatted.
  • Authentication errors may occur if the API key credential is missing or invalid. Confirm the credential is set up properly in n8n.
  • Network or API downtime can cause request failures. Check connectivity and Autotask service status if errors persist.
