Overview
This node, named "ByronLogin," is designed to perform a login operation against the Ordenapp authentication API. It sends user credentials (email and password) via a POST request to the specified login endpoint. This node is useful in workflows where authenticating a user and obtaining access to protected resources or services is required before proceeding with further actions.
Practical examples include:
- Automating login to Ordenapp as part of a larger workflow that interacts with user-specific data.
- Integrating Ordenapp authentication into custom automation pipelines.
- Using the node to obtain session tokens or cookies for subsequent authenticated requests.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| The user's email address used for login. | |
| Password | The user's password used for login. |
Both properties are hidden fields and are sent in the body of the POST request to authenticate the user.
Output
The node outputs the JSON response received from the login API endpoint. This typically includes authentication tokens, user information, or error messages related to the login attempt.
No binary data output is indicated by the source code.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Ordenapp authentication API at
https://api.develop.byroncode.com/api/auth/login. - Needs valid user credentials (email and password) to successfully authenticate.
- No additional external dependencies or environment variables are specified.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Credentials: If the email or password is incorrect, the API will likely return an authentication error. Verify the credentials are correct.
- Network Issues: Failure to reach the API endpoint may cause errors. Ensure network connectivity and that the API URL is accessible.
- API Changes: If the API endpoint or expected request format changes, the node may fail. Confirm the API documentation matches the node's request structure.
- Empty Credentials: Since the email and password fields are hidden and default to empty strings, ensure these are properly set in the workflow to avoid sending empty login data.
