Overview
This node interacts with the OpenProject API to perform various operations on different resources, including versions. Specifically, the "Version" resource with the "Get" operation retrieves detailed information about a specific version by its ID. This is useful when you want to fetch metadata or details about a particular version within an OpenProject instance.
Common scenarios include:
- Retrieving version details to display in reports or dashboards.
- Validating version existence before associating it with other entities like work packages.
- Automating workflows that depend on version-specific data.
Example: You have a version ID and want to get its name, status, or related project information to use in subsequent workflow steps.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Version ID | The unique identifier of the version to retrieve. This is required for the "get", "delete", and "update" operations on the Version resource. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved version object from the OpenProject API. The structure corresponds to the version resource's fields as returned by the API, typically including properties such as:
id: The version's unique identifier.name: The name of the version.- Other metadata fields related to the version (e.g., status, project association).
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to an OpenProject instance via its REST API.
- Needs an API key credential configured in n8n for authentication.
- The base URL of the OpenProject API and the API key must be provided in the node credentials.
Troubleshooting
Error: "The resource 'version' is not supported!"
This indicates an unsupported resource was selected; ensure "Version" is chosen correctly.Error: "OpenProject error response: ..."
This usually means the API responded with an error message, possibly due to an invalid version ID or insufficient permissions. Verify the version ID exists and the API key has appropriate access rights.Network or Authentication Errors
Check that the base URL and API key are correct and that the OpenProject server is reachable.Missing Required Parameter "Version ID"
Ensure the "Version ID" property is set and not empty for the "get" operation.
