Overview

This node interacts with the Bitrix24 platform, specifically providing operations on various resources including the Disk resource. The "Get File Info" operation retrieves metadata and details about a specific file stored in Bitrix24's disk storage by its file ID.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Automating workflows that require checking file properties before processing or moving files.
  • Integrating Bitrix24 file management into broader automation pipelines.
  • Fetching file metadata to display or log information without downloading the entire file.

Practical example:

  • A workflow that triggers when a new file is uploaded to Bitrix24, then uses this node to get detailed info about the file (such as size, creation date, owner) to decide further actions like sharing or archiving.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication Method of authenticating with Bitrix24: OAuth2 (recommended), Webhook (simpler but less secure), or API Key authentication.
File ID The unique identifier of the file in Bitrix24 Disk for which information is requested.
Options Additional optional parameters:
- Filter JSON object specifying filter criteria to narrow down results (if applicable).
- Order JSON object defining sort order for returned data (if applicable).
- Start Number indicating the start position for pagination of results (default 0).

Output

The node outputs an array of items, each containing a json property with the file information retrieved from Bitrix24. This typically includes metadata fields such as file name, size, type, creation/modification dates, owner, and other relevant attributes depending on Bitrix24's API response.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown in the provided code snippet for this operation), it would represent the actual file content or related binary attachments.

Dependencies

  • Requires connection to Bitrix24 via one of the supported authentication methods: OAuth2, Webhook URL, or API Key.
  • Needs appropriate credentials configured in n8n for the chosen authentication method.
  • Relies on Bitrix24 API endpoints to fetch file information.
  • Uses internal helper functions and resource handlers bundled within the node implementation to make API calls.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing File ID: Ensure the File ID parameter is correctly set and corresponds to an existing file.
    • Authentication errors: Verify that the selected authentication method is properly configured and valid.
    • API rate limits or connectivity problems: Check network access and Bitrix24 API usage limits.

  • Error messages:

    • Errors thrown during execution will include the error message from Bitrix24 API or internal processing.
    • If "Continue On Fail" is enabled, errors are returned as part of the output JSON with an error field describing the issue.

  • Resolution tips:

    • Double-check input parameters for correctness.
    • Confirm credentials and permissions in Bitrix24.
    • Review Bitrix24 API documentation for any changes or limitations.
