Overview
The "Game Boost" node integrates with the Game Boost API to retrieve and manipulate game-related data. Specifically, for the "Get Game Schema" operation, it fetches the schema or structure of a specified game from the platform. This is useful for users who want to understand the data model of a particular game, enabling them to tailor further automation or data processing workflows accordingly.
Common scenarios include:
- Fetching metadata about a game to dynamically generate forms or UI elements.
- Validating input data against the game's schema before performing operations like account creation or updates.
- Integrating game-specific data into broader automation pipelines.
Example: A user wants to automate player account management but first needs to know the exact fields and data types required by a specific game. Using this node's "Get Game Schema" operation, they can retrieve that information programmatically.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Game Name or ID | The identifier or name of the game on the platform whose schema you want to retrieve. Choose from a list loaded dynamically or specify an ID using an expression. |
Note: There is also a hidden notice property providing links to official and unofficial Discord servers for community support and discussions.
Output
The output contains JSON data representing the schema of the selected game. This typically includes details such as field names, types, constraints, and other metadata describing the game's data structure.
If the operation returns multiple items, each item will have a json property containing the schema information.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Game Boost API.
- The node depends on internal methods to load options dynamically (e.g., game slugs) from the API.
- No additional external services beyond the Game Boost API are required.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing API credentials will prevent successful API calls.
- Specifying a game name or ID that does not exist or is misspelled may result in empty or error responses.
- Network connectivity problems can cause timeouts or failures when calling the Game Boost API.
Error messages:
- Authentication errors typically indicate invalid or expired API keys; reconfigure the credential.
- "Game not found" or similar errors suggest verifying the game identifier.
- Unexpected response formats might require checking for API changes or node version updates.
