Interact with SugarCRM API

Actions40

Overview

This node integrates with the SugarCRM API to perform various operations on CRM resources, including Meters. Specifically, the Get Meter operation retrieves a single Meter record by its unique ID from SugarCRM.

Common scenarios for this node include:

  • Fetching detailed information about a specific Meter in your CRM system.
  • Integrating SugarCRM data into workflows that require Meter details for further processing or decision-making.
  • Automating reporting or synchronization tasks where Meter data is needed.

For example, you might use this node to retrieve a Meter's data when a related event occurs, such as updating a billing system or triggering alerts based on Meter readings stored in SugarCRM.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID The unique identifier of the Meter record to retrieve.
Send Query Parameters Whether to send additional query parameters with the request (true/false).
Specify Query Parameters How to specify query parameters if sending them: either "Using Fields Below" or "JSON".
Query Parameters A collection of key-value pairs specifying query parameters when "Using Fields Below" is selected.
Query Parameters (JSON) Query parameters specified as a JSON object when "JSON" option is selected.

Output

The output is a JSON object representing the retrieved Meter record from SugarCRM. It contains all fields returned by the SugarCRM API for that Meter, structured as key-value pairs.

If multiple records were requested (not applicable for the Get operation), the output would be an array of such objects.

No binary data is output by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires a configured API authentication credential for SugarCRM with appropriate permissions.
  • Needs network access to the SugarCRM instance's REST API endpoint.
  • The node uses OAuth2 password grant flow internally to obtain an access token before making API requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Error: No records found or unexpected API response structure
    This can occur if the provided Meter ID does not exist or the API response format has changed. Verify the ID and ensure the SugarCRM instance is accessible.

  • Authentication errors
    If the node fails to authenticate, check that the API credentials (client ID, client secret, username, password) are correct and have sufficient permissions.

  • Invalid JSON in query parameters
    When specifying query parameters as JSON, ensure the JSON syntax is valid to avoid parsing errors.

  • Network or API endpoint issues
    Confirm that the SugarCRM base URL is reachable and the API version (v11_11) is supported.
