Overview
The "Get Thread" operation of the OpenAI Analytics node retrieves detailed information about a specific conversation thread by its ID. This operation is useful when you want to fetch the current state or metadata of an existing thread within the OpenAI Analytics environment.
Typical use cases include:
- Monitoring or auditing ongoing conversations.
- Fetching thread details for display or further processing in workflows.
- Integrating thread data into dashboards or reports.
For example, after creating and running a thread, you might want to retrieve its details to check its status or content before proceeding with other actions.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Authentication | Choose which API credentials to use: - OpenAI Analytics API - OpenAI API |
| Thread ID | The unique identifier of the thread to retrieve. |
Details on provided properties:
- Authentication: Selects whether to use dedicated OpenAI Analytics API credentials or existing OpenAI API credentials for authentication.
- Thread ID: A required string input specifying the ID of the thread you want to get.
Output
The output JSON contains the detailed information of the requested thread. This typically includes metadata such as thread ID, messages, status, timestamps, and any associated assistant or user data.
If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown for this operation), it would represent file attachments or related binary content linked to the thread.
Dependencies
- Requires valid API credentials for either the OpenAI Analytics API or the OpenAI API.
- The node internally uses the official OpenAI SDK client initialized with the selected credentials.
- No additional external dependencies are needed beyond the configured API keys.
Troubleshooting
- Error loading credentials: Occurs if the node cannot access the specified API credentials. Ensure that the correct credentials are configured in n8n and selected properly in the node.
- Unsupported resource error: If the resource parameter is not set to "thread", the node will throw an error. Make sure the resource is correctly set.
- Invalid Thread ID: Providing an incorrect or non-existent thread ID will likely result in an API error. Verify the thread ID before execution.
- API rate limits or network issues: Standard API errors may occur due to rate limiting or connectivity problems. Retry or check your API usage quotas.
