Overview

This node interacts with the mittwald mStudio API to retrieve the base item associated with a specific Contract. It is useful when you need to fetch detailed information about the foundational element or resource that a given contract references. For example, in scenarios where contracts are linked to particular services, products, or resources, this node helps extract that underlying base item data for further processing or analysis.

Properties

Name Meaning

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the mittwald mStudio API.
  • The node uses the base URL https://api.mittwald.de and expects JSON responses.
  • Proper configuration of the API authentication credential within n8n is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Contract Id: If the provided Contract Id is incorrect or does not exist, the API may return an error or empty response. Verify the UUID format and existence.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the mittwald API endpoint can cause request failures. Check network access and proxy settings if applicable.
  • Unexpected Response Format: If the API changes its response schema, the node might not parse the output correctly. Confirm API version compatibility.
