Overview

The "Update Experience" operation in the Pulse Talent node allows users to modify an existing experience entry associated with a specific talent. This is useful for keeping professional profiles up-to-date by editing details such as the organization, position, dates, and summary of a work experience.

Common scenarios include:

  • Correcting or updating job titles or organizations on a talent's profile.
  • Adding missing end dates or marking experiences as ongoing.
  • Refining summaries to better reflect responsibilities or achievements.

For example, if a talent has changed their job title or wants to update the description of a past role, this operation enables those changes to be reflected accurately in the system.

Properties

Talent ID * The unique identifier of the talent whose experience entry you want to update.

Output

The node outputs a JSON object representing the updated experience entry. This typically includes all the fields provided in the input along with any additional metadata returned by the API, such as timestamps or unique identifiers confirming the update.

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 perform authenticated requests.
  • Proper permissions on the API key are necessary to update experience entries.

Troubleshooting

  • Error: "The operation 'updateExperience' is not supported for resource 'experience'!"
    This indicates a mismatch between the selected resource and operation. Ensure that the resource is set to "Experience" and the operation to "Update Experience".

  • Missing required fields error
    Make sure all required properties (Talent ID, Experience ID, Organization, Position, Start Date) are provided and correctly formatted.

  • Authentication errors
    Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to update experience data.

  • Invalid date formats
    Confirm that the Start Date and End Date (if provided) are in a valid datetime format accepted by the API.
