Describe the problem/error/question
I’m building a Custom Node that includes the key requestDefaults
, as detailed here in the official docs containing an object with a baseURL, header, and other properties.
I want to then retrieve this key value inside the execute
function, so that I can use this data when making a HTTP request. What is the doing this?
The this.getNode()
method exists, but doesn’t allow me to access this key value.
Currently, I am creating a new instance of the node inside the execute function, and then extracting the description.requestDefaults object, but this doesn’t seem like a logical solution. Surely there is a direct way of accessing this value?
