Wechat Work Node

Overview

This node interacts with a WeChat Work (企业微信) API to manage organizational departments. Specifically, the "获取子部门ID列表" operation under the "部门管理" resource retrieves the list of sub-department IDs recursively for a given department. If no department ID is provided, it fetches the entire organizational structure.

This node is useful in scenarios where you need to:

  • Obtain hierarchical department data from WeChat Work.
  • Automate workflows based on department structures.
  • Integrate WeChat Work's organizational data into other systems or reports.

For example, you might use this node to get all sub-departments under a sales department to send targeted notifications or generate department-specific analytics.

Properties

Name Meaning
部门ID The ID of the department to retrieve sub-departments for. If left empty, fetches the full organization structure recursively.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the list of sub-department IDs corresponding to the specified department. The output is structured as an array of JSON objects, each representing a sub-department ID.

If binary data were involved, it would be summarized here, but this node only outputs JSON data related to department IDs.

Dependencies

  • Requires valid credentials for WeChat Work API access, including an API key or token with permissions to read organizational data.
  • The node depends on the WeChat Work API endpoint to fetch tokens and department information.
  • Proper configuration of the API base URL, corporate ID, and secret is necessary within the node credentials.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or expired API credentials will cause authentication failures.
    • Providing an incorrect or non-existent department ID may result in empty results or errors.
    • Network connectivity issues can prevent successful API calls.
  • Error messages:

    • "未实现方法: 部门管理.获取子部门ID列表" indicates that the requested operation is not implemented; ensure the node version supports this operation.
    • Authentication errors typically mention token retrieval failure; verify API credentials.
    • If the node throws errors about missing parameters, check that the department ID property is correctly set or left empty intentionally.
  • Resolutions:

    • Double-check and update API credentials.
    • Validate department IDs before running the node.
    • Ensure network access to WeChat Work API endpoints.
