Overview
This node integrates with the OpenProject API to manage project-related resources. Specifically, for the Version - Update operation, it updates an existing version entity within OpenProject by modifying its name. This is useful in scenarios where you need to rename or correct the name of a version associated with a project.
Practical examples include:
- Renaming a software release version after a naming convention change.
- Correcting typos or updating version names to reflect new milestones.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Version ID | The unique identifier of the version to update. This is required to specify which version resource will be modified. |
| Name | The new name to assign to the version. This is a required field and represents the updated version name. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the updated version resource as returned by the OpenProject API. This typically includes fields such as the version's ID, updated name, and other metadata provided by the API response.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
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 specified in the credentials.
- Uses HTTP PATCH method to update the version resource.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Incorrect or missing Version ID will cause the API call to fail because the target resource cannot be identified.
- Invalid or expired API key will result in authentication errors.
- Insufficient permissions on the API key may prevent updating the version.
- Network connectivity issues to the OpenProject server.
Error messages:
OpenProject error response: <message>indicates an error message returned from the OpenProject API, often due to invalid input or permission issues.- Generic errors may indicate network problems or misconfiguration.
Resolutions:
- Verify that the Version ID is correct and exists in the OpenProject instance.
- Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
- Check network connectivity and the correctness of the base URL.
- Review the error message details for specific API validation errors.
