Interact with coach trigger action liveelopment server API

Overview

This node interacts with the CoachTrigger API to update a user's current KPI (Key Performance Indicator) value within a company context. It is useful for scenarios where you want to programmatically track and update performance metrics of users, such as sales targets, productivity measures, or other custom KPIs relevant to your organization.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically updating a salesperson's monthly sales figures after a transaction.
  • Adjusting an employee's performance score based on recent activities.
  • Feeding real-time KPI data into dashboards or reporting tools.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication Choose between "Company Api" or "System Api" authentication methods.
User ID The unique identifier of the user whose KPI value you want to update.
KPI ID The identifier of the specific KPI to update for the user.
KPI Value The new value to set for the specified KPI.
KPI Date (Optional) The date associated with the KPI value update, allowing historical tracking.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the CoachTrigger API after attempting to update the user's current KPI value. This typically includes confirmation of the update or details about the updated KPI record.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the CoachTrigger API.
  • Requires either a "Company Api" or "System Api" authentication credential configured in n8n.
  • Network connectivity to https://www.coachtriggerapp.com/crmApi/update-current-kpi-value endpoint (inferred from similar endpoints; actual URL used is https://www.coachtriggerapp.com/crmApi/get-current-kpi-value for getting KPI, but update uses a similar pattern).

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: Ensure that the correct API key or system key is provided and valid.
  • Missing required fields: The node requires User ID, KPI ID, and KPI Value. Omitting any will cause errors.
  • Invalid KPI ID or User ID: If these identifiers do not exist in the CoachTrigger system, the API may return errors or no updates will occur.
  • Date format issues: If providing KPI Date, ensure it matches the expected format by the API (usually ISO 8601).
  • API connectivity issues: Verify network access to the CoachTrigger API endpoints.
