Nodes

Codika Init

The Codika Init node initializes a workflow execution and establishes the connection with the Codika platform.

Trigger Modes:

| Mode | Description |
|——|————-|
| Passthrough | For HTTP/Webhook triggers – extracts execution metadata directly from the incoming payload |
| Create | For scheduled/service triggers – creates a new execution via the Codika API |

Parameters (Create Mode):

| Parameter | Description |
|———–|————-|
| Member Secret | Your Codika member authentication secret |
| Organization ID | Your Codika organization identifier |
| User ID | The user identifier for the execution |
| Process Instance ID | The process instance to associate with this execution |
| Workflow ID | The workflow template identifier |
| Trigger Type | Type of trigger (e.g., “schedule”, “gmail”, “webhook”) |

Output:

The node outputs execution metadata including:

• executionId – Unique identifier for this execution
• executionSecret – Secret token for authenticating callbacks
• callbackUrl – URL for submitting results
• errorCallbackUrl – URL for reporting errors

Codika Event

The Codika Event node reports workflow execution outcomes back to Codika.

Operations:

| Operation | Description |
|———–|————-|
| Submit Result | Report successful workflow completion with output data |
| Report Error | Report workflow failures with error details |

Submit Result Parameters:

| Parameter | Description |
|———–|————-|
| Result | JSON object containing the workflow output |
| Execution Time (ms) | Optional execution duration in milliseconds |

Report Error Parameters:

| Parameter | Description |
|———–|————-|
| Error Message | Description of what went wrong |
| Error Type | Category: nodefailure, validationerror, externalapierror, or timeout |
| Failed Node Name | Optional name of the node that failed |
| Last Executed Node | Optional name of the last successfully executed node |

Auto-Detection:

The Codika Event node automatically detects execution parameters from the Codika Init node in your workflow, so you don’t need to manually configure the execution ID and secret.

Usage

Basic Workflow Pattern

[Trigger] → [Codika Init] → [Your Logic] → [Codika Event: Submit Result]
                                      ↓
                              [Error Handler] → [Codika Event: Report Error]

Example: HTTP Trigger Workflow

1. Add a Webhook trigger node
2. Add Codika Init node (auto-detects HTTP payload)
3. Add your business logic nodes
4. Add Codika Event → Submit Result for success path
5. Add Codika Event → Report Error in error handling branch

Example: Scheduled Workflow

1. Add a Schedule trigger node
2. Add Codika Init node with your Codika credentials
3. Add your business logic nodes
4. Add Codika Event → Submit Result for success path
5. Add Codika Event → Report Error in error handling branch
