Consume Summa API (v.0.1.7)

Actions182

Overview

This node, named "Summa," integrates with the Summa API to perform various operations on different resources. Specifically, for the WLAN Subscription resource and the Set WLAN Profile operation, it allows users to update or assign a WLAN profile to a subscriber identified by their IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity). This is useful in scenarios where network administrators or service providers need to manage wireless access profiles dynamically, such as enabling or changing Wi-Fi access settings for mobile subscribers.

Practical examples include:

  • Assigning a new WLAN profile to a subscriber after a plan upgrade.
  • Changing the WLAN access parameters for troubleshooting or policy enforcement.
  • Automating WLAN profile updates based on subscriber status changes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Imsi The unique identifier of the subscriber's SIM card (International Mobile Subscriber Identity). Required to specify which subscriber's WLAN profile will be set.
Wlan Profile The WLAN profile name or identifier to assign to the subscriber. Represents the wireless network configuration to apply.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the Set WLAN Profile operation. This typically includes confirmation of the update, status messages, or any returned data from the Summa API indicating success or failure of the profile assignment.

If the operation supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent related files or configurations, but this node primarily deals with JSON responses.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Summa API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
  • Uses an HTTP client internally to communicate with the Summa backend services.
  • The node depends on the Summa API version specified in the node description (version referenced in code).
  • Proper credentials must be set up in n8n before execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing IMSI value: Ensure the IMSI is correctly provided and corresponds to an existing subscriber.
    • Incorrect WLAN profile name: Verify that the WLAN profile exists and is valid within the Summa system.
    • Authentication errors: Confirm that the API key credential is correctly configured and has necessary permissions.
    • Network connectivity problems: Check that n8n can reach the Summa API endpoint.
  • Error messages:

    • Authentication failures usually indicate invalid or expired API credentials.
    • Validation errors may occur if required properties are missing or malformed.
    • API response errors might include details about why the WLAN profile could not be set; review these messages for corrective actions.
