SummaInstall

Overview

This node, named "Summa," integrates with the Summa API to perform various operations related to telecommunications data. Specifically, for the IMS Subscription resource and the "Get IMS Volatile Data" operation, it retrieves volatile (temporary or dynamic) data associated with an IMS subscription identified by a private user identity.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

• Fetching real-time or temporary IMS subscription details for troubleshooting or monitoring.
• Integrating IMS volatile data into workflows that require up-to-date subscriber information.
• Automating data retrieval from the Summa API for telecom service management.

Example use case: A telecom operator wants to automatically retrieve volatile IMS subscription data for a given subscriber during a support call to quickly diagnose issues.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the volatile IMS subscription information retrieved from the Summa API. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally includes dynamic attributes related to the IMS subscription state.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown in the provided code), it would typically represent any non-JSON data returned by the API, such as files or encoded payloads. However, based on the static analysis, the primary output is JSON-formatted subscription data.

Dependencies

• Requires access to the Summa API via an authenticated HTTP client.
• Needs an API key credential configured in n8n for authentication with the Summa API.
• Uses internal helper classes for request handling, state management, and operation resolution.
• No additional external services beyond the Summa API are indicated.

Troubleshooting

• Missing or invalid Private User Identity: Since this property is required, ensure it is correctly set; otherwise, the API call will fail or return no data.
• Authentication errors: If the API key credential is missing, invalid, or expired, the node will not authenticate successfully. Verify the credential configuration.
• API connectivity issues: Network problems or incorrect API endpoint configurations can cause request failures.
• Unexpected API responses: Changes in the Summa API or malformed requests might lead to errors or empty results. Check the API documentation and ensure parameters are correct.
