Overview

This node integrates with the GrandCentral API to perform various automated actions on different resources such as contacts, deals, emails, organizations, and to-dos. Specifically, for the Organization resource with the Tag Organization operation, it adds a tag to a specified organization. This can be useful in scenarios where you want to categorize or label organizations automatically based on certain triggers or workflows.

For example, you might use this node to:

  • Automatically tag an organization as "VIP" when they reach a certain spending threshold.
  • Add a "Prospect" tag to new organizations imported into your CRM.
  • Tag all contacts within an organization for targeted marketing campaigns (if the option is enabled).

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication Method of authentication; currently supports "Access Token".
Organization The unique identifier or name of the organization to which the tag will be added.
Tag The tag string that will be added to the organization.
Tag All Contacts Boolean option indicating whether to apply the tag to all contacts within the organization.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the GrandCentral API after performing the tagging action. The output contains details about the success or failure of the operation and any relevant metadata returned by the API.

If the "Tag All Contacts" option is enabled, the output may also reflect tagging results for individual contacts within the organization.

No binary data output is produced by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the GrandCentral API.
  • The node makes HTTP POST requests to the /automations/action endpoint of the GrandCentral API.
  • Proper configuration of the API key credential in n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Invalid or missing API key: Ensure the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
    • Incorrect organization identifier: Verify that the organization ID or name provided exists in the system.
    • Network or API downtime: Check network connectivity and GrandCentral API status.

  • Error Messages:

    • Authentication errors typically indicate invalid or expired tokens; re-authenticate or update credentials.
    • Validation errors may occur if required parameters like "Organization" or "Tag" are missing or malformed.
    • API rate limits could cause request failures; consider implementing retries or backoff strategies.
