Pulse Talent

Talent resource from Pulse API

Actions24

Overview

This node integrates with the Pulse API to manage talent-related data, specifically focusing on certifications in this context. The "Add Certification" operation allows users to create a new certification record associated with a specific talent. This is useful for HR systems, recruitment platforms, or talent management workflows where tracking professional certifications is essential.

Practical examples include:

  • Adding a newly obtained certification to a candidate's profile during onboarding.
  • Automatically updating talent records when certifications are verified or renewed.
  • Integrating certification data into broader talent analytics or compliance checks.

Properties

Name Meaning
Talent ID * The unique identifier of the talent to whom the certification will be linked.
Certification Name * The official name/title of the certification being added.
Organization * The issuing organization or authority that granted the certification.
Certificate URL * A URL linking to the certificate or proof of certification (e.g., verification page).
Obtention Date * The date when the certification was obtained, formatted as a date-time value.

(* indicates required fields)

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created certification record as returned by the Pulse API. This typically includes all details of the certification such as its ID, associated talent ID, name, issuing organization, URL, and obtention date.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Pulse API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The node depends on the Pulse API helper utilities bundled within the node's codebase to handle API requests.
  • Proper network access to the Pulse API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Missing or invalid Talent ID can cause the API to reject the request.
    • Incorrectly formatted dates for the obtention date may lead to validation errors.
    • Network connectivity issues or invalid API credentials will prevent successful communication with the Pulse API.

  • Error Messages:

    • "The operation "createCertification" is not supported for resource "certification"!"
      Indicates a mismatch in operation or resource parameters; ensure correct operation and resource names are selected.
    • API error messages related to authentication failures suggest checking the API key credential configuration.
    • Validation errors from the API about missing required fields indicate incomplete input properties.

To resolve these, verify all required fields are correctly filled, confirm API credentials are valid, and ensure the node's resource and operation settings match the intended action.
