Summary

Create a project category in Tyme by posting a ProjectCategory entity with a name and optional color and custom ID.

Inputs

  • Name (required) — Name of the project category.
  • Additional Fields — Optional collection. Color is an integer such as 0xFF9900, which is 16750848 in decimal. ID is a custom ID for the category. It is auto-generated if omitted and can't be changed after creation.

Output shape

One item per input item. Its json is the response from Tyme's update_entity endpoint, which is the created category.

The exact response fields aren't defined in the node source. If Continue On Fail is enabled, a failed item returns json {error: message} instead of stopping the workflow. Date conversion runs on additional fields but doesn't apply to the fields this operation offers.

Examples

Example 1: Create a category named 'Clients' with an auto-generated ID.

Resource: Project Category; Operation: Create; Name: Clients.

Example 2: Create a category with a fixed ID and an orange color so later workflows can reference it.

Name: Internal; Additional Fields: ID = internal-cat, Color = 16750848.
