Interact with mittwald mStudio API

Actions100

Overview

This node operation retrieves details of a specific SSH SFTP user by their unique identifier. It is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch and display information about an existing SSH user, for example, to verify user details, audit access, or integrate with other systems that require user metadata.

Practical examples include:

  • Fetching SSH user details before performing updates or deletions.
  • Displaying user information in a dashboard or report.
  • Integrating with automation workflows that depend on user-specific data.

Properties

Name Meaning
Ssh User Id The unique identifier of the SSH user to retrieve. This is required to specify which user's details should be fetched.

Output

The output will contain a JSON object representing the SSH user details retrieved from the API. This typically includes fields such as user ID, username, permissions, creation date, and other relevant metadata about the SSH user.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

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

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid SSH User Id: Ensure the "Ssh User Id" property is provided and correctly references an existing user.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or API errors: Check connectivity to the mittwald API endpoint and confirm the service status.
  • Unexpected response structure: If the API changes, the node might not parse the response correctly; updating the node or checking API documentation may help.
