Overview

This node integrates with the Halo PSA API to retrieve detailed information about a specific "Xtype" resource by its identifier. It is designed to fetch one particular Xtype record, optionally filtered or expanded with additional query parameters such as booking type, client ID, date ranges, and layout options.

Typical use cases include:

  • Retrieving detailed configuration or metadata about a specific Xtype entity in a PSA (Professional Services Automation) system.
  • Fetching data for reporting or synchronization purposes where only one Xtype record is needed.
  • Using optional filters to customize the returned data, such as including related details or limiting fields/layout information.

For example, you might use this node to get the full details of an Xtype identified by its ID, including related booking types and client-specific information, within a given date range.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique numeric identifier of the Xtype to retrieve.
Booking Type Optional filter specifying the booking type associated with the Xtype.
Client Id Optional filter specifying the client ID related to the Xtype.
End Date Optional end date string to limit the data retrieval up to this date.
Fieldsandlayoutonly Optional flag to request only fields and layout information without full details.
Includedetails Optional flag to include additional detailed information in the response.
Site Id Optional filter specifying the site ID related to the Xtype.
Start Date Optional start date string to limit the data retrieval from this date onward.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved Xtype object from the Halo PSA API. The structure corresponds to the API's response for a single Xtype resource, potentially including nested details depending on the query parameters used.

If binary data were involved (not applicable here), it would be included separately, but this operation focuses on JSON data output only.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Halo PSA API.
  • Needs proper configuration of the base URL, tenant identifier, client ID, and client secret for the Halo PSA service.
  • Uses HTTP GET requests with query parameters constructed from the input properties.

Troubleshooting

  • No credentials returned!: This error indicates missing or misconfigured API authentication credentials. Ensure that the API key and other required authentication details are correctly set up in n8n.
  • Resource or Operation not found: If the specified resource or operation does not exist, verify that the correct resource ("Xtype") and operation ("Get One Xtype") names are used.
  • Invalid or missing Id: Since the Id property is required, ensure it is provided and is a valid number.
  • API request failures: Network issues, incorrect base URL, or invalid authentication tokens can cause request errors. Check connectivity and credential validity.
  • JSON parsing errors: If additional JSON parameters are used, ensure they are well-formed JSON strings.
