Overview

This node operation updates the description of an existing Project Backup in the Backup resource. It is useful when you want to modify or clarify the metadata associated with a specific project backup, for example, to provide more context or update notes about the backup's purpose or contents.

Practical examples include:

  • Changing the description after a backup has been created to reflect changes in the project.
  • Adding detailed information about what the backup contains or why it was made.
  • Correcting or updating typos or outdated descriptions.

Properties

Name Meaning
Project Backup Id The unique identifier of the Project Backup whose description you want to update.
Description The new description text for the Project Backup.

Output

The output JSON will typically contain the updated Project Backup object or confirmation details reflecting the change in description. This usually includes fields such as the Project Backup ID and the new description value.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authentication with the mittwald mStudio API.
  • The node uses the mittwald mStudio API endpoint at https://api.mittwald.de.
  • Proper configuration of the API credentials within n8n is necessary for successful requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Project Backup Id: If the provided Project Backup Id does not exist or is incorrect, the API may return an error indicating that the resource was not found. Verify the ID before retrying.
  • Authentication errors: Ensure that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
  • Empty or invalid description: Providing an empty string or invalid data type for the description might cause the API to reject the request. Make sure the description is a valid string.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems can cause timeouts or failed requests. Check network settings and API availability.
