Overview
This node interacts with the AvantGuard Pax8 Partner API to retrieve detailed usage summaries for subscriptions. Specifically, the "Find Subscription Usage Summary" operation fetches a particular usage summary by its unique identifier. This is useful in scenarios where users need to monitor or audit subscription usage data, such as tracking consumption metrics, billing details, or compliance reports.
Practical examples include:
- Fetching usage data for a specific subscription to generate custom reports.
- Integrating subscription usage information into dashboards or analytics tools.
- Automating alerts based on usage thresholds or anomalies.

Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the subscription usage summary corresponding to the provided Usage Summary Id. This JSON typically includes detailed fields about the usage metrics, time periods, and related subscription information as defined by the AvantGuard Pax8 Partner API schema.
If the API supports binary data (not evident from the code), it would be summarized here; however, this node primarily returns structured JSON data.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard Pax8 Partner API.
- The node makes HTTP requests to the base URL
https://api.pax8.com/v1. - Proper configuration of the API authentication credentials within n8n is necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Usage Summary Id: If the provided ID does not exist or is malformed, the API may return an error indicating the resource was not found. Verify the ID correctness.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key is correctly configured.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls. Check network access and proxy settings if applicable.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might lead to rate limiting errors. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency.
