Overview

This node operation creates a new label within a specified session. It is useful for organizing and categorizing items or data by assigning meaningful labels with customizable names and colors. For example, in a CRM system, you might create labels like 'Lead' or 'Customer' with specific colors to visually distinguish different types of contacts.

Use Case Examples

  1. Creating a label named 'Lead' with a red color to tag potential customers.
  2. Adding a label 'Urgent' with a specific color to prioritize tasks or messages.

Properties

Session The session name in which the label will be created.
Name The name of the label to be created.
Color Hex The color of the label specified in hexadecimal format.
Color The color of the label specified as a number (alternative to hex).
Request Options Additional request settings such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy, and timeout options.

Output

Dependencies

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the session name is valid and active; otherwise, label creation may fail.
