Overview
This node operation "Create Many View Sorts" allows users to create multiple view sort configurations in a system that supports nested related objects. It is useful when you want to define how data should be sorted and presented in views, especially when dealing with complex data structures involving related entities.
Typical use cases include:
- Bulk creation of sorting rules for data views in dashboards or reports.
- Automating the setup of sorting preferences for user interfaces that display hierarchical or relational data.
- Managing sorting metadata programmatically for systems that support nested object relationships.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Depth | Determines the level of nested related objects to include in the response: - 0: Only the primary object's information. - 1: Primary object plus its directly related objects (no further nesting). - 2: Primary object, its directly related objects, and their related objects. |
| Body | JSON object representing the view sorts to create. This contains the details of the view sort(s), such as field metadata IDs and other relevant configuration. The input must be valid JSON describing the view sorts. |
Output
The output will contain a JSON structure representing the created view sorts, including any nested related objects according to the specified depth. This typically includes identifiers, metadata, and configuration details of each created view sort.
If binary data were involved (not indicated here), it would represent files or attachments related to the view sorts, but this node focuses on JSON data only.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential to authenticate requests to the external service providing the view sort functionality.
- The node uses a base URL configured via credentials to connect to the target API.
- The request expects JSON content type and returns JSON responses.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid JSON in Body: If the JSON provided in the "Body" property is malformed, the node will fail. Ensure the JSON syntax is correct before execution.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Verify that the API key or token is correctly set up in the node credentials.
- Depth Parameter Misuse: Setting an unsupported depth value may result in incomplete or unexpected data. Use only 0, 1, or 2 as defined.
- API Endpoint Issues: Network errors or incorrect base URL configuration can prevent successful API calls. Confirm the endpoint URL and network connectivity.
