n8n-nodes-rentman

Community node for n8n that integrates with the Rentman API — the rental management software for AV, event, and crewing companies.

Disclaimer: This is an independent community integration and is not officially affiliated with or endorsed by Rentman.

Versioning

This package uses the scheme YY.Major.Minor-RentmanAPIVersion, inspired by calendar versioning:

| Segment | Meaning | Example | |---|---|---| | YY | Year of release | 26 = 2026 | | Major | Breaking changes | 1 | | Minor | New features / fixes | 1 | | RentmanAPIVersion | Rentman OpenAPI spec version this node targets | 1.8.1 |

Example: 26.1.1-1.8.1 — released in 2026, first major version, first minor update, built against Rentman API v1.8.1.

When Rentman releases a new API version, the RentmanAPIVersion segment is bumped. When the node itself gains new features or fixes without an API change, only YY.Major.Minor changes.

Features

All Get Collection operations support:

| Feature | Details | |---|---| | Return All | Automatically follows next_page_url cursor pagination | | Limit | 1–1,500 items per page (default: 50) | | Offset | Skip N results for offset-based pagination | | Sort | +field ascending / -field descending (e.g. +name, -modified) | | Filters | Per-resource filters: name, code, status, date ranges, path references | | Date filters | Modified After/Before, Created After using Rentman's relational operators | | Incremental sync | ID Greater Than filter for efficient delta syncs | | Field selection | Fields filter to request only specific fields (reduces payload) |

Expanding linked items

All read operations (Get, Get Collection, and read sub-resource operations) expose an Expand field. By default a field that references another resource returns a path string (e.g. "/equipment/12"); pass one or more field names to Expand to inline the full linked object instead. Accepts a comma-separated list and supports dot notation for nested expansion up to 3 levels.

Expand: equipment,equipment.creator

Only item/link fields can be expanded. Requires Rentman API v1.13.0 or newer.

API Limits

| Limit | Value | |---|---| | Requests per day | 50,000 | | Requests per second | 10 | | Max concurrent requests | 20 | | Max items per page | 1,500 |
