PortaOne

Consume PortaOne API (v.1.0.24)

Overview

The PortaOne node for n8n enables users to interact with the PortaOne API, specifically to manage rate records. The Rate Management → Delete operation allows you to delete a specific rate record by its unique ID. This is useful in scenarios where outdated or incorrect rate entries need to be removed from your billing or telecom system.

Practical examples:

  • Removing obsolete rate plans from your telecom billing platform.
  • Automating cleanup of test or temporary rates after bulk import operations.
  • Integrating with other systems to ensure only valid rates remain active.

Properties

Name Meaning
Authentication The authentication method to use. Options: Token Authentication, Basic Authentication.
Rate ID The unique ID of the rate record (mandatory for update/delete operations).
Simplify Whether to simplify the output data.
SimplifyPath Path to the property that should be returned (used when simplifying output).

Output

  • The node outputs a json field containing the result of the delete operation.
  • If Simplify is enabled, the output will be reduced to the value at the specified SimplifyPath, if provided.
  • Otherwise, the full response from the PortaOne API regarding the deletion will be returned.
  • Binary data: This operation does not output binary data.

Dependencies

  • External Services: Requires access to the PortaOne API.
  • API Credentials:
    • For Token Authentication: portaOneTokenApi credentials.
    • For Basic Authentication: portaOneBasicApi credentials.
  • n8n Configuration: Ensure the appropriate credentials are set up in n8n under the node's credential options.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or Invalid Rate ID: If the Rate ID is missing or incorrect, the API may return an error indicating the record was not found or could not be deleted. Double-check the Rate ID value.
  • Authentication Errors: If credentials are missing or invalid, you may see errors related to authentication failure. Ensure the correct authentication method and credentials are selected and configured.
  • Insufficient Permissions: The user associated with the credentials must have permission to delete rate records in PortaOne.
  • SimplifyPath Issues: If an invalid path is provided in SimplifyPath, the output may be empty or throw an error. Verify the path matches the structure of the API response.
