Overview

This node integrates with the Printcart API, enabling users to manage various resources such as accounts, stores, products, fonts, designs, and more. Specifically, for the Font resource and the Count Font operation, it retrieves the total count of font entries available in the Printcart system.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Automating inventory or asset management workflows by fetching counts of fonts.
  • Integrating font data into broader design or product pipelines.
  • Monitoring and reporting on font usage or availability within Printcart.

For example, a user might use this node to get the current number of fonts before deciding to add new ones or clean up unused fonts.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication Method of authentication; only option is "API Token"

Note: The node also requires selecting the Resource (here fixed as "Font") and Operation (here "Count Font"), but these are not exposed as input properties in your provided JSON snippet since you specified them explicitly.

Output

The output is a JSON array containing the response from the Printcart API for the font count request. The structure typically includes a numeric count representing how many fonts exist in the system.

Example output JSON structure:

[
  {
    "count": 123
  }
]

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API token credential for authenticating requests to the Printcart API.
  • The node makes HTTP GET requests to the endpoint:
    https://<sid>:<secret>@api.printcart.com/v1/fonts/count
    where <sid> and <secret> come from the authenticated credentials.
  • The node depends on n8n's HTTP request helper methods to perform authenticated API calls.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: If the API token or credentials are invalid or missing, the node will fail to authenticate. Ensure that a valid API token credential is configured in n8n.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems to api.printcart.com can cause request failures. Verify network access and firewall settings.
  • API rate limits: Excessive requests may be throttled by the Printcart API. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency if needed.
  • Unexpected response format: If the API changes its response schema, the node might not parse the count correctly. Check the API documentation for updates.
