Overview

This node interacts with the Pax8 Partner API to retrieve the subscription history for a specific subscription identified by its Subscription Id. It is useful in scenarios where users need to audit or review changes and events related to a particular subscription over time, such as tracking billing changes, status updates, or modifications made to the subscription.

Practical examples include:

  • Fetching the full change log of a subscription to troubleshoot billing discrepancies.
  • Auditing subscription lifecycle events for compliance or reporting purposes.
  • Integrating subscription history data into dashboards or CRM systems for enhanced customer insights.

Properties

Name Meaning
Subscription Id The unique identifier of the subscription whose history you want to retrieve. This must be provided as a string.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the subscription history details associated with the specified Subscription Id. This typically includes an array of historical records or events describing changes or actions performed on the subscription. Each record may contain timestamps, event types, user information, and other relevant metadata.

If the API supports binary data (e.g., attachments or documents related to subscription history), the node would handle it accordingly, but based on the provided code and context, the output is primarily JSON structured data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Pax8 Partner API.
  • Needs an API authentication token or key configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
  • The base URL for API requests is https://api.pax8.com/v1.
  • The node depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package for building request properties and handling OpenAPI specifications.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Subscription Id: If the Subscription Id is incorrect or does not exist, the API may return a 404 error or an empty result set. Verify the Subscription Id before running the node.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authorization failures. Ensure that the API key or token is correctly configured in n8n.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can lead to request timeouts or failures. Check network access to api.pax8.com.
  • API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might trigger rate limiting. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency if needed.
  • Unexpected Response Format: If the API changes its response structure, the node's output parsing might fail. Keep the integration updated with the latest API specs.
