Overview

This node integrates with the Tiny ERP system to manage products. Specifically, the Product - Create operation allows users to create new product entries in their Tiny ERP account by providing detailed product information.

Typical use cases include:

  • Automating product catalog creation from external data sources.
  • Bulk importing new products into Tiny ERP.
  • Integrating e-commerce platforms or inventory systems with Tiny ERP for seamless product management.

For example, a user can set up an automation that creates new products in Tiny ERP whenever a new item is added to their online store, ensuring consistent and up-to-date inventory records.

Properties

  Complementary Description Additional descriptive text about the product.

Output

The output JSON contains the full response from the Tiny ERP API after creating the product. This typically includes:

  • The newly created product's unique ID.
  • All product details as stored in Tiny ERP.
  • Status or confirmation of successful creation.

The output is paired with the input item index to maintain traceability in workflows.

No binary data is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Tiny ERP API.
  • Needs an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials (OAuth2-based).
  • Network access to Tiny ERP endpoints must be available.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Missing required fields in "Product Data" may cause API errors.
    • Invalid field formats (e.g., non-numeric origin) can lead to request failures.
    • Authentication errors if API credentials are invalid or expired.
    • Network connectivity problems preventing API calls.

  • Error Messages:

    • "The operation "create" is not supported!" — indicates a misconfiguration or unsupported operation selected.
    • "The resource "product" is not supported!" — indicates an incorrect resource selection.
    • API error messages returned from Tiny ERP will be passed through; check the message for details such as validation errors or permission issues.

  • Resolution Tips:

    • Verify all required product fields are correctly filled.
    • Ensure API credentials are valid and have necessary permissions.
    • Check network connectivity and firewall settings.
    • Use the node's "Continue On Fail" option to handle individual item errors gracefully.
