keyParameters: ['nodeType', 'query'],
example: 'search_node_properties({nodeType: "nodes-base.httpRequest", query: "auth"})',
performance: 'Fast - searches indexed properties',

'Returns property paths and descriptions',
'Much faster than get_node_info for finding specific fields'

description: `Searches for specific properties within a node's configuration schema. Essential for finding authentication fields, headers, body parameters, or any specific property without downloading the entire node schema (which can be 100KB+). Returns matching properties with their paths, types, and descriptions.`,
parameters: {
nodeType: {
type: 'string',

returns: `Object containing:
- nodeType: The searched node type
- query: Your search term
- matches: Array of matching properties with:
- name: Property identifier
- displayName: Human-readable name
- type: Property type (string, number, options, etc.)
- description: Property description
- path: Full path to property (for nested properties)
- required: Whether property is required
- default: Default value if any
- options: Available options for selection properties
- showWhen: Visibility conditions
- totalMatches: Number of matches found
- searchedIn: Total properties searched`,
examples: [
'search_node_properties({nodeType: "nodes-base.httpRequest", query: "auth"}) - Find authentication fields',
'search_node_properties({nodeType: "nodes-base.slack", query: "channel"}) - Find channel-related properties',
'search_node_properties({nodeType: "nodes-base.postgres", query: "query"}) - Find query fields',
'search_node_properties({nodeType: "nodes-base.webhook", query: "response"}) - Find response options'
],
useCases: [
'Finding authentication/credential fields quickly',
'Locating specific parameters without full node info',
'Discovering header or body configuration options',
'Finding nested properties in complex nodes',
'Checking if a node supports specific features (retry, pagination, etc.)'
],
performance: 'Very fast - searches pre-indexed property metadata',
bestPractices: [
'Use before get_node_info to find specific properties',
'Search for common terms: auth, header, body, credential',
'Check showWhen conditions to understand visibility',
'Use with get_property_dependencies for complete understanding',
'Limit results if you only need to check existence'
],
pitfalls: [
'Some properties may be hidden due to visibility conditions',
'Property names may differ from display names',
'Nested properties show full path (e.g., "options.retry.limit")',
'Search is case-sensitive for property names'
],
