What this node does
Lists your Nextcloud calendar events within a time range (read-only, via CalDAV). Default: the next 30 days from now.
Use Nextcloud Calendar as a clearly defined step in an anymize workflow.
- Processes one input.
- Provides one output for following steps.
- Runs as a regular step in the flow.
Set up the node
- 01Open a workflow and add Nextcloud Calendar from the node catalog.
- 02Select your nextcloud connection. You can create it directly in the workflow if needed.
- 03Complete the required fields and map values from previous steps.
- 04Run the node with a small test record and inspect its output.
- 05Connect the successful output and activate the workflow after an end-to-end test.
Operations and modes
Choose the required function in Action. The panel then shows the relevant settings.
- List events
Settings
| Field | Meaning | Area |
|---|---|---|
| Action | Choices: List events | Standard |
| From | When to start showing events. Empty = from now. | Standard |
| To | How far ahead to show events. Empty = 30 days after the start. | Standard |
| Maximum | Configure this value in the node panel. | Standard |
| Run once per item | Off (default): the node runs once for the whole input. On: if it receives several items (e.g. from Split Out), it runs once PER item, and {{ $json }} is that one item each time. This is how you work through a file list entry by entry. | Standard |
| If one item fails | "Skip" writes an `error` field for the failed item and keeps processing the rest, instead of losing the whole run to a single unreadable file. | Standard |
| Pause between items (milliseconds) | Wait before every run except the first. 1000 = 1 second per item. Useful when the other side would otherwise throttle you. Maximum 300000 (5 minutes). | Standard |
Inputs and outputs
| Input | Meaning | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | Receives the complete result from the previous step. | JSON |
| Output | Meaning | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | Makes the result available to the next step as JSON. | JSON |
This node can process lists item by item. Error handling and the delay between items are available in advanced settings.
Example and test run
Events over the next 30 days: begin with a small, recognizable record. Inspect the output and only map fields that are present there.
Test-run example
{}Access and security
This node uses a connected nextcloud account. Review the requested permissions and grant only the required access.
Store keys and credentials in the protected connection manager. Never paste them into normal workflow fields, test data or descriptions.
Troubleshooting
- No output: inspect the latest run and confirm that the previous node returned the expected fields.
- Empty variable: open the previous step output and use a field name from the real test data.
- Connection rejected: reconnect the service and grant the permissions required by this step.
- List processed once: enable per-item execution in advanced settings.
