Overview

This node operation updates the description of an existing Project Backup in the Backup resource. It is useful when you want to modify or clarify the metadata associated with a specific project backup, for example, to provide more meaningful context or notes about the backup's purpose or contents.

Practical examples include:

  • Updating the description after a backup has been verified or tested.
  • Adding additional details to distinguish between multiple backups.
  • Correcting or enhancing the description for better documentation.

Properties

Name Meaning
Project Backup Id The unique identifier of the Project Backup whose description you want to update.
Description The new description text for the Project Backup.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the updated Project Backup object. This typically includes the updated description along with other metadata fields related to the Project Backup. No binary data output is involved.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authentication with the mittwald mStudio API.
  • The node communicates with the mittwald API endpoint at https://api.mittwald.de.
  • Proper configuration of the API credentials within n8n is necessary for successful requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Project Backup Id: If the provided ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API will likely return an error indicating that the resource was not found. Verify the ID before running the node.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up and valid.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can prevent the node from reaching the API endpoint. Check network settings and firewall rules.
  • Empty Description: Providing an empty description might be rejected by the API or result in undesired state; ensure the description field contains meaningful text.
