Question regarding n8n API

djangelic · October 26, 2021, 8:49pm

I know the workflow API is not technically supported, but I wanted to know if there was any way to limit the workflows returned by tag by editing the Query Parameters. Is this possible?

Not at the moment. If experimenting in a fork, you can add the take arg to findQuery to limit results.

            				const findQuery: FindManyOptions<WorkflowEntity> = {
            					select: ['id', 'name', 'active', 'createdAt', 'updatedAt'],
            					relations: ['tags'],
            				};

# Find Options

-   [Basic options](#basic-options)
-   [Advanced options](#advanced-options)

## Basic options

All repository and manager ` .find*` methods accept special options you can use to query data you need without using `QueryBuilder`:

-   `select` - indicates which properties of the main object must be selected

```typescript
userRepository.find({
    select: {
        firstName: true,
        lastName: true,
    },
})
```

Interesting! I’m on the latest version, not a fork but glad to know there is support. For now I’ll iterate and No Op the Workflows that don’t match the Tag I want.
