Overview
The Ninox node for n8n allows you to interact with the Ninox database platform. Specifically, the Default Resource with the Delete Operation enables users to delete a specific record from a table within a Ninox database. This is useful in scenarios where you need to automate data cleanup, remove outdated or incorrect entries, or manage records as part of a larger workflow.
Practical Example:
Suppose you have an automated process that flags certain records for deletion based on business rules. You can use this node to automatically remove those records from your Ninox database without manual intervention.
Properties

"success": true
}
- No additional data about the deleted record is returned.
Dependencies
- External Service: Requires access to the Ninox API.
- API Credentials: You must configure valid Ninox API credentials (
ninoxApi) in n8n. - n8n Configuration: Ensure the Ninox node is properly installed and credentials are set up in your n8n instance.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Invalid IDs: If any of the Team, Database, Table, or Record IDs are incorrect or missing, the operation will fail.
- Missing Credentials: If Ninox API credentials are not configured, the node will throw an authentication error.
- Record Not Found: Attempting to delete a non-existent record will result in an error from the Ninox API.
Error Messages & Resolutions:
- "404 Not Found": The specified record does not exist. Double-check the Record ID.
- "401 Unauthorized": API credentials are missing or invalid. Reconfigure your Ninox credentials in n8n.
- "400 Bad Request": One or more required parameters are missing or malformed. Ensure all fields are filled correctly.
