Job → Batch Exists

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation checks the existence of multiple jobs in the InNotes CRM system by their external IDs in batches. It is useful for scenarios where you need to verify which jobs from a list already exist in the system, such as during data synchronization or validation processes. For example, you can input a comma-separated list of external job IDs, and the node will return a list indicating whether each job exists.

Use Case Examples

  1. Check if a list of job external IDs exist in the CRM before creating new entries to avoid duplicates.
  2. Validate job records in bulk during data import workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
External IDs Comma-separated list of external job IDs to check for existence.
Batch Size Number of items to process in each batch to avoid rate limiting.
Timeout Between Batches (ms) Delay in milliseconds between processing batches to avoid rate limiting.

Output

JSON

  • ext_id - The external ID of the job checked.
  • exists - Boolean indicating whether the job with the given external ID exists.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for InNotes CRM API authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • If no valid IDs are provided, the node returns an error indicating this issue.
  • API request failures during batch checks may throw errors unless 'Continue On Fail' is enabled, in which case non-checked IDs are marked as not existing.
  • Ensure the external IDs are correctly formatted and trimmed to avoid false negatives.
