Actions409

Overview

This node updates personalized settings for a user in the mittwald mStudio API. It is useful when you want to programmatically modify user-specific configuration or preferences stored on the mittwald platform. For example, you might update notification preferences, dashboard layouts, or other customizable options tied to a user account.

Typical use cases include:

  • Automating user profile customization after onboarding.
  • Syncing user preferences from an external system.
  • Adjusting settings based on user activity or roles dynamically.

Properties

Name Meaning
User Id The identifier of the user whose settings are being updated. Can be "self" or a user ID.
Settings String A JSON string representing the personalized settings to apply to the user.

The Settings String property expects a JSON-encoded string that contains the settings data structure. This string is sent as the body of the request to update the user's personalized settings.

Output

The node outputs the response from the mittwald mStudio API after updating the user's settings. The output is structured as JSON and typically includes confirmation of the update or the updated user settings object.

If the API supports it, binary data is not expected in this operation since it deals with JSON-based user settings.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the mittwald mStudio API.
  • The node uses the base URL https://api.mittwald.de.
  • The node depends on the @devlikeapro/n8n-openapi-node package for OpenAPI integration.
  • Proper network access to the mittwald API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid User Id: If the user ID does not exist or is invalid, the API may return an error. Verify the user ID or use "self" to refer to the authenticated user.
  • Malformed Settings String: The settings string must be valid JSON. Errors can occur if the string is malformed or missing required fields.
  • Authentication Errors: Ensure the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the mittwald API endpoint will cause failures; check firewall and proxy settings.
  • API Rate Limits: Frequent updates may hit rate limits imposed by the API.
