Consume Summa API (v.0.1.7)

Actions182

Overview

The node named "Summa" is designed to interact with the Summa API, specifically supporting various telecommunication-related resources and operations. For the HLR Subscription resource with the Clear All GMLC Number operation, this node clears all GMLC (Gateway Mobile Location Center) numbers associated with a given IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity). This operation is useful in scenarios where location services need to be reset or cleared for a subscriber, such as troubleshooting location update issues or resetting subscriber data in mobile network management.

Practical example: A telecom operator might use this node to clear outdated or incorrect GMLC numbers linked to a subscriber's IMSI to ensure accurate location tracking and service delivery.

Properties

Name Meaning
Imsi The International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) of the subscriber whose GMLC numbers will be cleared. This is a required string input.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the Clear All GMLC Number operation. This typically includes confirmation of the action performed or any relevant status messages returned by the Summa API. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally confirms that the GMLC numbers have been cleared for the specified IMSI.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Summa API.
  • Uses an HTTP client internally to send requests to the Summa backend.
  • The node depends on the Summa API being accessible and properly configured with valid credentials.
  • No additional environment variables are explicitly required beyond the API authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Invalid or missing IMSI value: Ensure the IMSI property is correctly provided and formatted.
    • Authentication failures: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
    • Network connectivity problems: Confirm that the Summa API endpoint is reachable from the n8n instance.
    • API errors related to subscriber not found or invalid state: Check that the IMSI exists and is active in the system.
  • Error Messages:

    • Authentication errors usually indicate invalid credentials; reconfigure the API key.
    • Validation errors on IMSI input suggest missing or malformed IMSI values.
    • API response errors should be reviewed in the node execution logs for specific details.
