Overview

This node provides access to detailed aviation data from the JetNet database, specifically for the Aircraft resource and its various operations. The "Get APU" operation retrieves information about an aircraft's Auxiliary Power Unit (APU), which is a critical component providing energy for functions other than propulsion.

Typical use cases include:

  • Aviation industry analytics where detailed aircraft component data is needed.
  • Maintenance planning or verification by accessing APU specifications and status.
  • Integrating aircraft technical data into AI agents or workflows that require up-to-date aircraft system details.

For example, a user can input an aircraft ID to fetch the corresponding APU information, enabling automated reporting or decision-making processes related to aircraft power systems.

Properties

Name Meaning
Tool Description Choose how to set the tool description:
- Set Automatically: Description is auto-generated based on resource and operation.
- Set Manually: User provides a custom description explaining what the tool does.
Description When "Set Manually" is selected, this string describes the tool’s purpose to improve LLM results. Default explains access to JetNet aviation data including aircraft specs, company info, contacts, and market intelligence.

Output

The node outputs a JSON string with the following structure:

{
  "success": true,
  "resource": "aircraft",
  "operation": "getAPU",
  "data": { /* APU information object returned from JetNet API */ },
  "timestamp": "ISO 8601 timestamp"
}
  • success: Boolean indicating if the API call was successful.
  • resource: The resource queried ("aircraft").
  • operation: The operation performed ("getAPU").
  • data: Contains the detailed APU information retrieved from JetNet for the specified aircraft.
  • timestamp: The time when the response was generated.

If an error occurs, the output JSON will have "success": false and an "error" field describing the issue.

The node does not output binary data; all responses are JSON-formatted text.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the JetNet service.
  • The node makes HTTP requests to the JetNet API endpoint at https://customer.jetnetconnect.com.
  • Proper configuration of the API authentication token and bearer token in n8n credentials is necessary.
  • Network connectivity to JetNet API endpoints must be available.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Aircraft ID: The "Get APU" operation requires an aircraft ID. If omitted, the node throws an error: "Aircraft ID is required for this operation". Ensure you provide a valid aircraft identifier.
  • Invalid Registration Number: For operations requiring registration numbers, invalid or missing values cause errors.
  • Authentication Errors: If API credentials are incorrect or expired, requests will fail. Verify API keys and tokens.
  • Unknown Operation or Resource: Selecting unsupported operations or resources leads to errors like "Unknown aircraft operation" or "Unknown resource".
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the JetNet API endpoint will result in request failures.
  • Malformed Input: Input parameters should be correctly formatted JSON or strings parsable to JSON. Improper formatting may cause parsing errors.

To resolve errors:

  • Double-check input parameters for required fields.
  • Confirm API credentials are valid and properly configured.
  • Review network access and firewall settings.
  • Consult JetNet API documentation for correct usage patterns.
