SummaInstall

Overview

The node named "Summa" is designed to interact with the Summa API, specifically supporting various telecom-related operations. For the Subscriber resource and the Get Subscriber Info operation, it retrieves detailed information about a subscriber based on provided identifiers. This node is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch subscriber data such as account details, subscription status, or operator-specific information from the Summa platform.

Practical examples include:

• Validating subscriber identity before processing service requests.
• Fetching subscriber details for customer support or billing purposes.
• Integrating subscriber info into automated workflows for telecom management.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the subscriber information retrieved from the Summa API. The structure typically includes fields related to the subscriber's profile, subscription details, and operator-specific attributes. The exact schema depends on the API response but generally provides comprehensive subscriber data.

There is no indication that this node outputs binary data.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential to authenticate with the Summa API.
• Uses an HTTP client internally to make REST calls to the Summa backend.
• Depends on the n8n environment having the appropriate credentials configured for the Summa API.

Troubleshooting

• Missing or invalid credentials: Ensure the API key credential for Summa API is correctly set up and tested.
• Required parameters not provided: Both "External Id" and "Operator Name" must be supplied; missing these will cause errors.
• API connectivity issues: Network problems or incorrect endpoint configurations can lead to request failures.
• Unexpected API responses: If the subscriber does not exist or the operator name is incorrect, the API may return errors or empty results.

To resolve these:

• Verify credentials and test connection using the built-in credential test method.
• Double-check input parameter values for correctness.
• Confirm network access to the Summa API endpoints.
