Interact with mittwald mStudio API

Actions409

Overview

This node interacts with the mittwald mStudio API to delete a specific Cronjob by its ID. It is useful in automation workflows where scheduled tasks (Cronjobs) need to be programmatically removed, for example, when cleaning up obsolete or redundant scheduled jobs or managing dynamic scheduling based on external conditions.

A practical example would be an automated system that creates and deletes Cronjobs based on user input or system state changes, ensuring that only relevant scheduled tasks remain active.

Properties

Name Meaning
Cronjob Id The unique identifier of the Cronjob to delete. This must be provided as a string.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the mittwald mStudio API after attempting to delete the specified Cronjob. Typically, this will include confirmation of deletion or error details if the operation failed.

No binary data output is expected from this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the mittwald mStudio API.
  • The node sends requests to the base URL: https://api.mittwald.de.
  • Proper configuration of the API authentication credentials within n8n is necessary for successful operation.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent Cronjob ID will result in an error response from the API.
    • Missing or incorrect API authentication credentials will cause authorization failures.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent communication with the mittwald API.
  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "Unauthorized" or similar: Check that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
    • "Cronjob not found": Verify that the Cronjob ID is correct and exists in the mittwald system.
    • Network errors: Ensure that your environment has internet access and can reach https://api.mittwald.de.
