Overview

This node operation deletes a specific budget in the FireFly III system using the Budgets API. It requires the user to provide the ID of the budget they want to delete. This operation is useful for managing budgets by removing those that are no longer needed or relevant.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a budget that is outdated or no longer applicable to free up resources and keep the budget list clean.
  2. Automating budget management workflows where budgets are programmatically removed based on certain conditions.

Properties

X-Trace-ID A unique UUID identifier for the request, used for debugging and tracing.

Output

JSON

  • success - Indicates if the budget was successfully deleted (true/false).
  • id - The ID of the deleted budget.

Dependencies

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the provided Budget ID is correct and exists in the FireFly III system to avoid 'not found' errors.
  • Check that the API credentials are valid and have the necessary permissions to delete budgets.
  • If the API returns an error, verify the X-Trace-ID for debugging and tracing the request in the FireFly III logs.
