Overview
The "Update Project" operation in the GateKit node allows users to modify the details and settings of an existing project within the GateKit platform. This includes updating the project's name, description, environment, and whether it is set as the default project. This operation is useful for managing project metadata and configuration dynamically without needing to recreate projects.
Typical use cases include:
- Renaming a project to reflect a new focus or branding.
- Updating the project description to provide more context or information.
- Changing the deployment environment (development, staging, production) to align with the current stage of the project lifecycle.
- Setting a specific project as the default for easier access or prioritization.
Example: A user might update a project's environment from "development" to "production" once the project is ready for live use.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Project name | The new name for the project. |
| Project description | A textual description providing details about the project. |
| Project environment | The environment setting for the project; options are "development", "staging", or "production". |
| Set as default project | Boolean flag indicating if this project should be set as the default project. |
| Project | The identifier of the project to update (required). |
Output
The output of this operation is the JSON response returned by the GateKit API after updating the project. It typically contains the updated project details including its name, description, environment, default status, and other metadata fields as maintained by the API.
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the GateKit API via an API key credential.
- The node must be configured with the appropriate API URL and authentication credentials.
- The project identifier must correspond to an existing project in the GateKit system.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Project Identifier: If the specified project ID does not exist, the API will return an error. Verify that the project ID is correct.
- Insufficient Permissions: Ensure the API key used has permissions to update projects.
- Invalid Environment Value: The environment property must be one of "development", "staging", or "production". Using any other value may cause errors.
- Empty Required Fields: Although most fields are optional except the project ID, ensure the project ID is provided.
- API Connectivity Issues: Network problems or incorrect API URL/credentials can cause failures.
Common error messages usually come directly from the API and indicate issues such as unauthorized access, resource not found, or validation errors on input parameters.
