Pulse Talent

Talent resource from Pulse API

Overview

This node interacts with the Pulse API to manage Talent-related resources, specifically here focusing on the Skill resource's Delete Skill operation. It allows users to delete a specific skill from the Pulse system by providing the unique identifier of that skill.

Common scenarios for this node include:

  • Removing outdated or incorrect skills from a talent profile.
  • Automating cleanup of skills in bulk workflows.
  • Integrating with HR or talent management systems to keep skill data synchronized and up-to-date.

For example, if you have a list of skills that are no longer relevant for certain talents, you can use this node to delete those skills programmatically by specifying their IDs.

Properties

Name Meaning
Skill ID * The unique identifier of the skill to delete. This is a required string input.

Output

The output of this node is a JSON object representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will confirm whether the deletion was successful or provide details about the deleted skill. The exact structure depends on the Pulse API response but generally includes status information.

No binary data output is produced by 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 network access to the Pulse API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Error: "The operation 'deleteSkill' is not supported for resource 'skill'!"
    This error indicates a mismatch between the selected resource and operation. Ensure that the resource is set to "Skill" and the operation to "Delete Skill".

  • Error related to missing or invalid Skill ID
    Make sure the "Skill ID" property is provided and correctly references an existing skill in the Pulse system.

  • API authentication errors
    Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions to delete skills.

  • Network or timeout issues
    Check your network connectivity and Pulse API service status.
