GiteaInstall

Overview

This node operation retrieves a list of activity feeds related to a specific user from a Gitea instance. It is useful for monitoring or auditing user actions within a Gitea repository hosting environment. For example, you can use it to track what activities a particular user has performed on a given date or to paginate through their activity history.

Properties

Output

The output contains JSON data representing the user's activity feeds as returned by the Gitea API. Each item in the output corresponds to an individual activity event associated with the user, including details such as action type, timestamp, and related entities. There is no indication that binary data is returned by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires connection to a Gitea instance via its REST API.
• Needs an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
• The base URL for the Gitea API must be set in the node's credential configuration.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:
  • Invalid or missing API credentials will cause authentication failures.
  • Incorrect username or date format may result in empty or error responses.
  • Pagination parameters (page and limit) set to zero or negative values might not behave as expected; ensure they are positive integers.
• Error messages:
  • Authentication errors typically indicate invalid or expired API tokens; reconfigure credentials.
  • "User not found" errors suggest the username does not exist in the Gitea instance.
  • Rate limiting errors may occur if too many requests are made in a short time; implement retries or backoff.
