Get Game Schema

AI-generated

Overview

The "Game Boost" node integrates with the Game Boost API to retrieve and manipulate game-related data. Specifically, for the "Get Game Schema" operation, it fetches the schema or structure of a specified game from the platform. This is useful for users who want to understand the data model of a particular game, enabling them to tailor further automation or data processing workflows accordingly.

Common scenarios include:

  • Fetching metadata about a game to dynamically build forms or interfaces.
  • Validating input data against the game's schema before sending updates.
  • Integrating game data into dashboards or reports by understanding its structure.

Example: A user wants to automate account creation or status updates for a specific game but first needs to know the required fields and their types. Using this node's "Get Game Schema" operation, they can retrieve that information programmatically.

Properties

Name Meaning
Game Name or ID The identifier or name of the game on the platform whose schema you want to retrieve. Choose from a list loaded dynamically or specify an ID using an expression.

Note: There is also a hidden notice property providing links to official and unofficial Discord servers for community support and discussions.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the schema of the selected game. This JSON typically includes details such as field names, types, constraints, and other metadata describing the game's data structure.

If multiple items are returned, the output is an array of objects each containing a json property with the schema data.

No binary data output is indicated in the source code.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Game Boost API.
  • Uses internal methods to load options dynamically (e.g., game slugs) from the API.
  • No additional external dependencies beyond the Game Boost API and n8n's credential system.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing API credentials will prevent successful API calls.
    • Selecting a game name or ID that does not exist or is unavailable may result in empty or error responses.
    • Network connectivity problems can cause timeouts or failures when calling the Game Boost API.

  • Error messages:

    • Authentication errors typically indicate invalid or expired API keys; reconfigure credentials.
    • "Game not found" or similar errors suggest the provided game identifier is incorrect; verify the selection or expression.
    • Unexpected response formats might occur if the API changes; ensure the node and API versions are compatible.
