WaAPIInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the WaAPI API to retrieve label information based on a specified instance ID. It is useful when you need to fetch details about a particular label from the WaAPI service, for example, to display label metadata or use label data in subsequent workflow steps.

A practical scenario would be automating the retrieval of label details for a given resource identified by its ID, enabling workflows that depend on dynamic label information.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the details of the requested label fetched from the WaAPI API. The structure corresponds to the label's properties as defined by the external API, typically including fields such as label name, description, and other metadata.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the WaAPI API.
• The node makes HTTP requests to https://waapi.app/api/v1.
• Proper configuration of the API authentication credential within n8n is necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:

  • Invalid or missing API key credential will cause authentication failures.
  • Providing an incorrect or non-existent instance ID may result in errors or empty responses.
  • Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.

• Error messages:

  • Authentication errors typically indicate invalid credentials; verify and update the API key.
  • "Not Found" or similar errors suggest the provided instance ID does not exist; confirm the ID value.
  • Timeout or connection errors require checking network access and API availability.
