Overview
This node interacts with the OpenProject API to manage various resources, including versions. Specifically, for the Version - Delete operation, it deletes a version resource identified by its unique Version ID. This is useful in project management workflows where obsolete or incorrect version entries need to be removed from OpenProject.
Practical examples:
- Automatically cleaning up outdated software version records after a release cycle.
- Removing mistakenly created version entries during project setup automation.

Output
The node outputs a JSON object representing the response from the OpenProject API after attempting to delete the specified version. Typically, this will be an empty object or confirmation message indicating successful deletion. No binary data output is involved.
Example output JSON structure:
{}
or possibly some confirmation details depending on the API response.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the OpenProject API.
- Needs an API key credential configured in n8n for authentication.
- The base URL of the OpenProject instance must be provided in the credentials.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Version ID parameter will cause the request to fail.
- Incorrect API key or base URL configuration will result in authentication errors.
- Attempting to delete a non-existent version may return an error from the API.
Error messages:
OpenProject error response: <message>indicates an error returned by the OpenProject API, such as "Version not found" or "Unauthorized".- Network or connectivity errors will throw generic error messages related to HTTP requests.
Resolutions:
- Verify that the Version ID is correct and exists in the OpenProject system.
- Ensure the API key and base URL are correctly set in the node credentials.
- Check network connectivity to the OpenProject server.
