Overview

This node interacts with the Tallyfy workflow automation platform, specifically focusing on managing process instances. The "Update" operation for the "Process" resource allows users to modify properties of an existing process instance within their organization on Tallyfy.

Typical use cases include:

  • Updating metadata or custom fields of a running process.
  • Adjusting process details dynamically based on external triggers or data changes.
  • Automating updates to processes as part of larger workflow orchestrations.

For example, you might update a process's status, tags, or other custom attributes after receiving new information from another system integrated via n8n.

Properties

Name Meaning
Process ID The unique identifier of the process instance to update (required).
Additional Fields A collection of optional fields that can be updated on the process. These fields are not explicitly listed here but can include any updatable process attributes supported by Tallyfy's API.

Note: The "Additional Fields" property is a flexible collection allowing users to specify various process attributes to update.

Output

The node outputs the JSON response returned by the Tallyfy API after updating the process. This typically includes the updated process object with its current state and properties.

The output structure is:

{
  "json": {
    // Updated process data as returned by Tallyfy API
  }
}

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Tallyfy API using an API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The node uses the organization's base URL and organization ID from the credentials.
  • Proper permissions on the Tallyfy account to update process instances are necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Process ID: If the provided Process ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API will return an error. Verify the ID before running the node.
  • Insufficient Permissions: Ensure the API key has rights to update processes in the specified organization.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems with the Tallyfy API endpoint may cause request failures.
  • Invalid Field Values: Providing unsupported or incorrectly formatted additional fields may result in API errors. Validate field names and types according to Tallyfy's API documentation.

If the node throws an error, check the error message for details and confirm all required parameters are correctly set.
