Overview
The node interacts with the Prompticus API to retrieve a single prompt by its unique identifier (GUID). It is useful when you need to fetch detailed information about a specific prompt stored in the Prompticus system. This can be beneficial in scenarios such as dynamically loading prompt templates for further processing, previewing prompt content before use, or integrating prompt data into workflows.
For example, you might use this node to:
- Retrieve a prompt template by GUID and then replace variables within it for personalized content generation.
- Fetch prompt details to display or log them in your automation.
- Use the prompt data as input for subsequent nodes that perform text generation or analysis.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| GUID | The unique identifier of the prompt to retrieve. |
| Variables | Key-value pairs to replace variables within the prompt dynamically. Each variable has: |
| - Name: The variable name to replace in the prompt. | |
| - Value: The value to substitute for the variable name. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved prompt object from the Prompticus API. This typically includes all prompt details such as its content, metadata, and any other associated fields returned by the API.
If the prompt contains dynamic variables, these will be replaced according to the provided key-value pairs before output.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API access token credential for the Prompticus service.
- The node communicates with the Prompticus API endpoint at
https://api.promptic.us/v1. - Proper configuration of the API authentication token in n8n credentials is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid GUID error: Ensure the GUID provided is correct and exists in the Prompticus system.
- Authentication errors: Verify that the API access token is valid and has not expired.
- Variable replacement issues: Confirm that variable names match those expected in the prompt and that values are correctly provided.
- Network or API downtime: Check connectivity and Prompticus service status if requests fail unexpectedly.
