Overview
This node is designed to interact with a system managing roles, specifically allowing the deletion of a role by its unique identifier. It is useful in scenarios where user roles need to be programmatically removed from a system, such as cleaning up unused roles or managing access control dynamically.
For example, an administrator could automate the removal of obsolete roles after a project ends, ensuring that permissions remain current and secure.
Properties
Name | Meaning |
---|---|
ID | The unique identifier (primary key) of the role to delete. This is required to specify which role should be removed. |
Output
The output JSON typically contains the result of the delete operation. This might include confirmation of successful deletion or details about the deleted role. Since the source code does not explicitly define the output structure, it can be assumed that the output will confirm whether the deletion was successful or provide error information if it failed.
No binary data output is indicated.
Dependencies
- Requires connection to the target system's API that manages roles.
- Needs an API authentication token or key configured in n8n to authorize the delete request.
- The node depends on internal methods and routing logic imported from bundled dependencies, which handle the actual API calls.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid ID: If the ID property is empty or incorrect, the node will likely fail to find the role to delete. Ensure the ID is correct and corresponds to an existing role.
- Authentication errors: Failure due to missing or invalid API credentials will prevent deletion. Verify that the API key or token is correctly set up in n8n.
- Role not found: Attempting to delete a non-existent role may return an error. Confirm the role ID exists before attempting deletion.
- Permission issues: The API user must have sufficient permissions to delete roles; otherwise, the operation will be denied.
Links and References
- Refer to the API documentation of the system managing roles for detailed information on role deletion endpoints.
- n8n documentation on setting up API credentials and using HTTP request nodes may be helpful for configuring this node.
