LEDGERSInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the LEDGERS API to perform various operations related to financial and business data management. Specifically, for the Tax Operation (India) resource and the GST Search operation, it allows users to search or retrieve information related to GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) in India.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

• Validating GSTIN numbers during invoice processing.
• Fetching GST-related details for compliance and reporting.
• Automating tax return status checks or GST data lookups within workflows.

For example, a user can input a GSTIN to verify its validity or retrieve associated tax information directly from the LEDGERS platform, streamlining tax compliance processes.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the results of the GST search operation. The exact structure depends on the response from the LEDGERS API but generally includes details related to the GSTIN queried, such as registration status, taxpayer details, and other relevant GST information.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown in the provided code), it would typically represent documents or files related to the GST search, but no binary output is indicated here.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to the LEDGERS API service.
• Needs valid API credentials including an API key, email, password, and API URL configured in n8n credentials.
• The node performs authentication by logging into the LEDGERS API before making requests.
• Network access to the LEDGERS API endpoints is necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Authentication Failures: If the node throws errors about failed login or missing API tokens, verify that the API key, email, password, and API URL credentials are correctly set and valid.
• Invalid GSTIN Input: Ensure the GSTIN entered is correctly formatted and valid; otherwise, the API may return errors or empty results.
• API Response Issues: If the API returns unexpected data structures or errors, check the LEDGERS API status and ensure the account has appropriate permissions.
• Network Errors: Connectivity issues between n8n and the LEDGERS API can cause request failures; verify network settings and firewall rules.
