Consume ScaleFluidly API

Overview

This node integrates with the ScaleFluidly API, specifically supporting various administrative, quoting, configuration, pricing, and MCP-related operations. For the Admin resource with the Get Category Products operation, it allows users to retrieve products associated with a specific category from the ScaleFluidly system.

Typical use cases include:

  • Fetching product lists for a given category to display or process within workflows.
  • Automating inventory or catalog synchronization tasks.
  • Integrating category-product data into other business systems or dashboards.

For example, a user might configure this node to pull all products under a "Winter Collection" category from their ScaleFluidly environment (Dev, QA, or Local) to update an e-commerce platform or generate reports.

Properties

Name Meaning
Environment The target ScaleFluidly environment to connect to. Options: Dev, QA, Local (with respective URLs).
Request JSON object containing the request body parameters required by the API for the selected operation. For "Get Category Products", this would typically specify the category identifier or related filters.

Note: The "Request" property is a flexible JSON input that must be structured according to the API's expectations for the "get_category_products" operation.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the response from the ScaleFluidly API for the requested operation. For "Get Category Products," the output JSON will contain details about the products in the specified category, such as product IDs, names, descriptions, prices, and other relevant attributes as returned by the API.

If the API supports binary data for any operation, the node can handle it, but for this operation, the output is purely JSON.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the ScaleFluidly API endpoint corresponding to the chosen environment (Dev, QA, or Local).
  • Optionally uses an API authentication token if provided in the input data headers; otherwise, it attempts to use configured credentials named generically as an API key credential.
  • No additional external dependencies beyond standard HTTP request capabilities provided by n8n.

Troubleshooting

  • Bearer token not found: If the first input item does not contain an authorization header with a bearer token and no credential is configured, the node will throw an error. Ensure that either the input includes a valid authorization token or proper API credentials are set up in n8n.
  • Operation not found: If the specified operation (intent) does not match any known API endpoint mapping, the node will error out. Verify the operation name matches one of the supported actions.
  • Invalid request body: Since the "Request" property expects a JSON object tailored to the API, malformed or incomplete JSON may cause API errors. Validate the JSON structure against ScaleFluidly API documentation.
  • Environment URL issues: Selecting an incorrect environment or having network connectivity problems to the specified URL will result in request failures.
