Summary

Searches OpenProject work packages across all projects, optionally using full-text search, and returns matching tasks as n8n items. Set a result limit or return all matches, and optionally sort the results.

Inputs

  • Project (required) — The UI requires selecting a project, but the search implementation does not read this parameter: it searches the /work_packages endpoint across projects.
  • Return All — When enabled, fetches results in pages of 100 until all are collected. Defaults to false.
  • Limit — Maximum results when Return All is off; defaults to 50.
  • Sort By — Optional sort column: assignee, author, createdAt, dueDate, id, priority, startDate, status, subject, type, or updatedAt. Default keeps OpenProject's ordering.
  • Sort Order — Ascending or descending order when a Sort By column is selected; defaults to ascending.
  • Search Text — Optional full-text query across task subject, description, and comments. Leave empty to omit the search filter.

Output shape

A list of n8n items, one per returned task.

Each item contains the parsed task fields: id, subject, description, project, type, priority, status, author, createdAt, updatedAt, and parentTask when present. Results are paginated internally; when Return All is off, the list is capped by Limit.
