Overview

This node connects to the Nexoid API to manage records in a Nexoid database. Specifically, the 'Delete a record' operation allows users to delete a record of a specified type by its ID. This is useful for workflows that need to remove outdated or incorrect data from Nexoid, such as deleting a contact or invoice record based on its unique identifier.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a contact record by specifying the record type as 'contact' and providing the record ID to remove that contact from the database.
  2. Removing an invoice record by specifying the record type as 'invoice' and the corresponding record ID.

Properties

Name Meaning
Record type The type of record to delete, analogous to a table name in a database, e.g., 'contact' or 'invoice'. This is required to identify the category of the record.
Record ID The unique identifier of the record to delete. The ID may include a prefix (e.g., CON-123), but the prefix will be automatically stripped before the deletion request.

Output

JSON

  • * - The JSON response from the Nexoid API after deleting the record, containing details about the deletion result.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API service account with Nexoid, including credentials such as customer ID, username, and password for authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication failure due to invalid API user credentials will throw an error 'Failed to authenticate with Nexoid API. Please enter valid API user credentials'. Ensure correct credentials are provided.
  • If the record ID includes a prefix, it is automatically stripped; however, providing an incorrect or non-existent record ID will result in an error from the API.
  • Network or API errors during the delete request will propagate exceptions; verify network connectivity and API endpoint availability.
