Consume Summa API (v.0.1.7)

Actions182

Overview

This node, named "Summa," is designed to interact with the Summa API (version indicated in the code). Specifically, for the Send Protocol resource and the Send RTR For IMPU operation, it sends a Request To Reject (RTR) message related to an IMS Public User Identity (IMPU). This can be useful in telecom or network management scenarios where signaling or protocol messages need to be sent to manage user identities or sessions.

Practical examples include:

  • Sending a rejection message for a specific public user identity in a mobile network.
  • Managing subscriber sessions by sending protocol-level commands.
  • Automating network operations that require signaling control over user identities.

Properties

Name Meaning
Public User Identity The public identifier of the user (IMPU) for whom the RTR message will be sent.
Private User Identity The private identifier associated with the user, used internally for authentication or routing.
Reason The reason for sending the RTR message; explains why the request to reject is issued.
Message The actual message content or description accompanying the RTR request.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Summa API after attempting to send the RTR message. This typically includes status information about the success or failure of the operation, any returned metadata, or error details if applicable.

If the node supports binary data output, it would represent protocol-level responses or raw message payloads, but this is not explicitly shown in the provided code snippet.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Summa API.
  • Uses an HTTP client internally to communicate with the Summa backend service.
  • Depends on the @digital-boss/n8n-designpatterns package for resource-operation resolution and execution patterns.
  • The node expects proper configuration of the Summa API credentials within n8n.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing API credentials will cause authentication failures.
    • Incorrect or malformed input properties (e.g., invalid user identities or empty required fields) may result in API errors.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent successful communication with the Summa API.
  • Error messages:

    • Authentication errors typically indicate invalid or expired API keys; verify and update credentials.
    • Validation errors from the API suggest incorrect input values; ensure all required fields are correctly filled.
    • Timeout or connection errors imply network issues; check internet access and API endpoint availability.
