Overview

This node integrates with the SignifyCRM API to manage various CRM resources, including Tasks. Specifically, the Task - Get operation retrieves detailed information about a single task by its ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch and use specific task data within an automation workflow, such as displaying task details, updating related records, or triggering conditional logic based on task attributes.

Practical examples:

  • Fetching a task's status and due date to send reminders.
  • Retrieving task assignment details to notify the responsible user.
  • Accessing task metadata for reporting or analytics purposes.

Task ID The unique identifier of the task to retrieve

Output

The output JSON contains the detailed data of the requested task. It includes fields such as:

  • id: The task's unique identifier.
  • name: The name/title of the task.
  • status: Current status of the task.
  • date_start: Start date of the task.
  • date_due: Due date of the task.
  • priority: Priority level of the task.
  • assigned_user_id: Identifier of the user assigned to the task.
  • parent_type: Type of the related parent entity (if any).
  • parent_id: Identifier of the related parent entity (if any).

The structure corresponds to the CRM's internal representation of a task entry. No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the SignifyCRM API.
  • The node uses HTTP POST requests to the SignifyCRM endpoints /get_entry for fetching individual entries.
  • Proper configuration of the SignifyCRM API credentials in n8n is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Task ID will cause the API request to fail.
    • Authentication errors if the API key credential is not set up correctly.
    • Network connectivity problems may prevent reaching the SignifyCRM API.

  • Error messages:

    • "Task not found": Indicates the provided Task ID does not exist; verify the ID.
    • "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is valid and configured.
    • Timeout or connection errors: Ensure network access to the SignifyCRM API endpoint.

To resolve these, confirm the Task ID is correct, verify API credentials, and check network settings.
