Tallyfy

Interact with Tallyfy workflow automation platform

Overview

This node integrates with the Tallyfy workflow automation platform to create a bot comment on a specific task. A bot comment is a type of comment added programmatically without triggering notifications to users. This can be useful for automated updates, system messages, or internal notes that should not alert task participants.

Typical use cases include:

  • Automatically logging status updates or system-generated messages on tasks.
  • Adding informational comments from bots or integrations without disturbing users.
  • Recording audit trails or automated feedback within task discussions.

For example, when a task reaches a certain stage in an automated workflow, this node can add a bot comment summarizing the event without notifying assigned users.

Properties

Name Meaning
Task ID The unique identifier of the task to which the bot comment will be added.
Comment Content The content of the comment to add. Supports HTML formatting for rich text comments.

Output

The node outputs the response from the Tallyfy API as JSON. The output typically contains details about the created comment, such as its ID, content, creation timestamp, and related metadata.

The output structure is:

{
  "id": "string",
  "content": "string",
  "created_at": "string (timestamp)",
  "task_id": "string",
  ...
}

No binary data is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Tallyfy API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The node uses the base URL https://go.tallyfy.com/api or a custom base URL if specified in credentials.
  • Requires the organization ID to construct API endpoints.
  • The user must have appropriate permissions to add comments to tasks in the Tallyfy organization.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Task ID: If the provided Task ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API will return an error. Verify the Task ID is correct and accessible.
  • Authentication Errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Permission Denied: The authenticated user or API key must have rights to add comments to the specified task.
  • Empty Comment Content: The comment content is required; submitting empty content will cause an error.
  • API Rate Limits: Excessive requests may trigger rate limiting; implement retries or delays if needed.

If errors occur, check the error message returned by the API in the node output for guidance.
