Overview
This node integrates with the Vista Social platform to create a new Note resource. It allows users to add notes with specific details such as title, description, date, visibility, and color. This is useful for automating note-taking or content management workflows where notes need to be programmatically created and organized within Vista Social.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically creating meeting notes from calendar events.
- Adding reminders or annotations linked to social media campaigns.
- Logging important updates or ideas during project management.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Title | The title of the note being created. |
| Note | The main content or description text of the note. |
| Date | The date associated with the note (e.g., creation or relevant event date). |
| Visibility | The visibility setting of the note; can be either "Public" or "Private". |
| Color | The color label assigned to the note, chosen from a predefined list of color names. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created note object as returned by the Vista Social API. This typically includes all properties sent in the request along with any additional metadata generated by the service, such as unique identifiers or timestamps.
If the node supports binary data output, it would represent attachments or media related to the note, but based on the provided information, this node focuses on JSON data only.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Vista Social API.
- Needs an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
- The base URL for API requests is
https://vistasocial.com/api/integration. - Proper permissions on the API key to create notes are necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has permission to create notes.
- Validation errors: Required fields like Title, Note, and Date must be provided; missing these will cause errors.
- Invalid option values: For Visibility and Color, only the specified options are accepted; using unsupported values will result in request failures.
- Network issues: Verify network connectivity to the Vista Social API endpoint.
