Consume Summa API (v.0.1.7)

Actions182

Overview

This node, named "Summa," is designed to interact with the Summa API (version indicated dynamically). It supports multiple resources and operations, including a resource called "CRUD Operator" with an operation "Get Operator." The primary purpose of this node is to perform various API calls to retrieve or manipulate data related to telecommunications entities such as operators, subscriptions, SIM cards, and more.

For the specific CRUD Operator - Get Operator operation, the node fetches details about a particular operator by its name. This can be useful in scenarios where you need to retrieve operator metadata or configuration from the Summa system, for example:

  • Fetching operator details before performing further actions like updates or deletions.
  • Validating operator existence in workflows that manage telecom operator data.
  • Integrating operator information into broader automation pipelines involving telecom services.

Properties

Name Meaning
Name The unique name identifier of the operator to retrieve. This is a required string input specifying which operator's details to fetch.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the operator details retrieved from the Summa API. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes fields describing the operator's attributes such as identifiers, configurations, status, and other metadata.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown in the provided code), it would represent any binary content returned by the API, but for the "Get Operator" operation, the output is expected to be purely JSON.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Summa API.
  • Uses internal helper classes for HTTP requests (HttpClient), state management (State), and operation resolution/execution (ResOpResolver, ResOpExecutor).
  • The node depends on the external package @digital-boss/n8n-designpatterns for operation handling patterns.
  • The Summa API endpoint and version are implicitly configured via credentials and internal settings.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is correctly configured and valid. Authentication failures will prevent successful API calls.
  • Operator not found: If the specified operator name does not exist, the API may return an error or empty result. Verify the operator name spelling and existence.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems to the Summa API endpoint will cause request failures. Check network access and endpoint availability.
  • Invalid parameters: Missing or incorrect "Name" property will cause the node to fail validation or API call errors. Always provide a valid operator name.
