Odoo Write

Description

The Odoo API Write module allows sending data to Odoo or Open Bravo endpoints via POST or PUT requests with basic authentication. It uses native HTTP requests (without axios) for greater control over the connection. It supports dynamic URL and body resolution, automatic normalization of payloads with numeric keys, and following links.href links to check the operation status. It is ideal for creating or updating records in Odoo, such as products, orders, customers, etc.

Configuration

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
credentials_id	credentials	Yes	Odoo / Open Bravo access credentials
url	text	Yes	Endpoint URL (supports {{variable}} variables)
method	select	No	Operation to perform: POST (Create), PUT (Update), DELETE (Delete). Default: POST

Credentials

The credential must contain the fields:

• username: Username for basic authentication
• password: Password for basic authentication

The module generates an Authorization: Basic <base64> header with these credentials.

Output

{
  "nextModule": "siguiente_modulo",
  "data": {
    "result": "respuesta del servidor",
    "statusInfo": {}
  },
  "_meta_": {
    "status": 200,
    "statusText": "OK"
  }
}

Usage Example

Basic case

{
  "credentials_id": "cred_odoo_01",
  "url": "https://mi-odoo.com/api/products",
  "method": "POST"
}

API Used

Any REST endpoint compatible with Odoo / Open Bravo. Requests are made with native Node.js HTTP/HTTPS.

Notes

• Supports dynamic {{variable}} variables in the URL
• The body is taken from the workflow’s input data; if resolveBody is active, config.body with dynamic variables is used
• Payloads with numeric keys (such as {"0": {...}}) are automatically normalized to arrays
• _meta_ fields are recursively removed from the payload before sending
• If the response contains links.href, the module makes a second GET request to obtain status information
• The default timeout is 30 seconds
• continueOnError: true allows the workflow to continue even if the request fails
