Cativa

Consume Cativa API

Overview

This n8n node allows you to interact with the Cativa API, specifically to comment on a post. It is useful in scenarios where you want to automate engagement with posts—such as adding comments for moderation, feedback, or community interaction—directly from your workflows. For example, you could use this node to automatically comment on new posts that meet certain criteria, or to add standardized responses to user-generated content.

Properties

Name Meaning
Post ID The unique identifier of the post you want to comment on. This is required.
Content The text content of the comment you wish to add to the specified post.

Output

The node returns a JSON object (or array of objects) representing the result of the "Comment on Post" operation. The exact structure depends on the Cativa API's response, but typically includes information about the created comment, such as its ID, content, and associated post. If an error occurs and "Continue On Fail" is enabled, the output will include an error field with the error message.

Dependencies

  • External Service: Requires access to the Cativa API.
  • Credentials: You must configure the cativaApi credential in n8n for authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication Errors: If credentials are incorrect or missing, you may see errors like "Authentication failed" or similar messages. Ensure your cativaApi credentials are set up correctly in n8n.
  • Missing Required Fields: If "Post ID" or "Content" is not provided, the node may throw an error indicating missing parameters.
  • API Errors: If the Cativa API returns an error (e.g., invalid post ID), the error message will be included in the output if "Continue On Fail" is enabled, or the workflow will stop otherwise.
