Ksaar

Consume Ksaar API

Overview

This node integrates with the Ksaar API to manage various resources such as users, applications, workflows, and records. Specifically, for the Records resource with the Get a Record operation, it retrieves detailed information about a single record identified by its unique Record ID.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Fetching specific record data from Ksaar for further processing or analysis.
  • Integrating Ksaar record data into automated workflows.
  • Retrieving record details to trigger conditional logic based on record content.

Practical example:

  • You have a workflow that triggers when a new record is created in Ksaar. Using this node's "Get a Record" operation, you can fetch the full details of that record by its ID to use in subsequent steps like sending notifications or updating other systems.

Properties

Name Meaning
Send Headers Whether to send custom HTTP headers with the API request (true/false).
Headers If "Send Headers" is true, specify one or more HTTP headers as key-value pairs.
Record ID The unique identifier of the record to retrieve. This is required for the "Get a Record" operation.

Output

The output contains a JSON array with the retrieved record's data as returned by the Ksaar API. The structure typically includes all fields and metadata associated with the record.

  • json: An object representing the record details, including field values and related metadata.
  • No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Ksaar API via an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials.
  • The node uses the base URL https://api.ksaar.co/v1 for API requests.
  • Optional: Custom HTTP headers can be sent if enabled.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Record ID: The operation requires a valid Record ID. Ensure the ID is correctly provided and matches the expected format.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API authentication token is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network issues: Check connectivity to the Ksaar API endpoint.
  • API rate limits: If many requests are made rapidly, the API might throttle requests; consider adding delays or handling retries.
  • Custom headers misconfiguration: If "Send Headers" is enabled but headers are incorrectly specified, the request may fail.
