Lineup Marker → Create a Marker

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation creates a new Lineup Marker in the Basecamp system. It is useful for users who want to add markers with specific names and dates to organize or highlight important points in their project timelines or schedules. For example, a project manager might use this to mark key milestones or deadlines within a project.

Use Case Examples

  1. Creating a marker named 'Project Kickoff' for the date '2024-07-01' to indicate the start of a project phase.
  2. Adding a marker named 'Review Deadline' for the date '2024-08-15' to remind the team of an important review date.

Properties

Name Meaning
Name The name of the marker to be created.
Date The date for the marker in ISO8601 format (without time part).
Return Full Response Whether to return the full API response including status code, headers, and body instead of only the response body.
Request Options Additional request options such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy settings, and timeout configuration.

Output

JSON

  • id - The unique identifier of the created lineup marker.
  • name - The name of the created lineup marker.
  • date - The date associated with the created lineup marker.
  • created_at - Timestamp when the marker was created.
  • updated_at - Timestamp when the marker was last updated.

Dependencies

  • Basecamp API access with OAuth2 credentials

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the 'Name' and 'Date' fields are provided and correctly formatted; missing or invalid inputs will cause errors.
  • If the API returns authentication errors, verify that the OAuth2 credentials are correctly configured and have the necessary permissions.
  • Network issues or incorrect proxy settings can cause request failures; check proxy configuration and network connectivity.
  • If SSL certificate validation fails and 'Ignore SSL Issues' is not enabled, the request will be blocked; enable this option only if you trust the endpoint.
