Overview
This node retrieves information about a specific folder by its unique identifier. It is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch details of a particular folder within a system that organizes data or files into folders. For example, you might use this node to get metadata or properties of a folder before performing further operations like moving files, updating folder settings, or auditing folder contents.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Id | ID of the requested folder (number) |
The "Id" property is required and specifies the unique numeric identifier of the folder you want to retrieve.
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the folder's details corresponding to the provided folder ID. The exact structure depends on the external API's response but typically includes folder metadata such as name, creation date, owner, permissions, and other relevant attributes.
If the node supports binary data output, it would represent any associated binary content related to the folder, but based on the provided code and properties, the primary output is JSON with folder information.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key or authentication token configured in the node credentials to access the external service.
- Depends on an external API endpoint that provides folder information by ID.
- The base URL for the API is set via credentials and used as the request base URL.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Folder ID: If the provided folder ID does not exist or is incorrect, the node may return an error or empty response. Verify the folder ID before running the node.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key or token is correctly configured.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the external API can cause timeouts or errors. Check network access and API availability.
- Unexpected Response Structure: If the API changes its response format, the node output may not match expectations. Review API documentation for updates.
Links and References
- Refer to the external API documentation for detailed information on folder resource endpoints and response formats.
- Consult n8n documentation on how to configure API credentials and handle HTTP requests within custom nodes.
