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 related to telecommunications data management. Specifically, for the resource Send Protocol and operation Send Cancel Location To Current MME Of IMSI, the node sends a cancellation request targeting the current Mobility Management Entity (MME) associated with a given IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity). This can be useful in scenarios such as terminating or updating subscriber sessions in mobile networks.

Practical examples include:

  • Cancelling a subscriber's location update in the network when they deregister or switch services.
  • Managing subscriber mobility by instructing the network to cancel the current MME association.
  • Network troubleshooting or subscriber session control via automated workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
Imsi The International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) of the subscriber to target.
Cancellation Type The type of cancellation to perform. Specific options are not listed but typically define the nature of the cancellation request.
Reattach Required Flag A boolean flag indicating whether the subscriber should be required to reattach after cancellation.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Summa API after attempting to send the cancel location request. This output typically includes status information about the success or failure of the operation, any error messages, and possibly details about the affected subscriber session.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Summa API.
  • Uses an HTTP client internally to communicate with the Summa backend service.
  • 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 will cause the operation to fail.
    • Incorrect cancellation type may result in API errors or unexpected behavior.
    • Network connectivity problems or invalid API credentials will prevent successful requests.
  • Error messages:
    • Authentication failures indicate issues with the provided API key credential; verify and update credentials.
    • Validation errors on input properties suggest missing or malformed parameters; ensure all required fields are correctly set.
    • API response errors should be checked against Summa API documentation for specific codes and remedies.
