Overview

This n8n custom node interacts with the Glassix API, specifically for the "Custom" resource and the "Dropdown" operation. The node is designed to allow users to fetch or manipulate dropdown-related data within the Glassix platform, likely for use in dynamic form fields or UI elements that require selectable options.

Common scenarios:

  • Populating dropdown menus in workflows based on dynamic data from Glassix.
  • Integrating Glassix custom field options into automated processes.
  • Enabling language-specific or key-specific dropdowns by providing additional parameters.

Practical example:
A user wants to present a list of available languages or keys from Glassix as a dropdown in an n8n workflow, possibly to drive further automation steps based on the user's selection.

Properties

Name Type Meaning
Additional Fields Collection Optional extra parameters for the dropdown operation. Includes "Key" (string) and "Language" (string). Used to filter or customize the dropdown results.

Output

The node outputs a json field containing the result of the dropdown operation from the Glassix API. The exact structure depends on the API response, but typically it will be an array or object representing the dropdown options (e.g., list of keys, languages, or other selectable values).

Note: If the node can output binary data, it would represent file attachments or similar content, but for this operation, only JSON output is expected.

Dependencies

  • External Service: Requires access to the Glassix API.
  • API Key/Credentials: Needs valid Glassix API credentials configured in n8n under the name glassixApi.
  • n8n Configuration: Ensure the Glassix node is installed and credentials are set up in your n8n instance.

Troubleshooting

Common issues:

  • Invalid Credentials: If the provided Glassix API credentials are incorrect or expired, authentication errors will occur. Make sure to update credentials in n8n.
  • Missing Required Fields: If required parameters for the dropdown operation are not provided, the node may throw parameter validation errors.
  • API Errors: If the Glassix API is unreachable or returns an error (e.g., due to network issues or invalid parameters), the node will fail with the corresponding error message.

Error messages and resolutions:

  • "Authentication failed": Check and update your Glassix API credentials in n8n.
  • "Missing required parameter": Review the node configuration and ensure all necessary fields are filled.
  • "Request failed with status code XXX": Inspect the error details; it may indicate a problem with the API endpoint, parameters, or service availability.
