JetNet Tool

Access JetNet aviation data for AI Agents

Overview

This node provides access to JetNet's comprehensive aviation industry data through various operations on different resources such as Aircraft, Company, Contact, and Market. Specifically, for the Aircraft resource with the Get List operation, it retrieves a list of aircraft from the JetNet database based on optional filtering criteria.

Typical use cases include:

  • Fetching an up-to-date list of aircraft for market analysis or inventory management.
  • Integrating aircraft data into aviation-related applications or AI agents.
  • Automating retrieval of aircraft specifications and related metadata for reporting or decision-making.

For example, a user might retrieve all aircraft matching certain make types or airframe types to analyze fleet composition or track new aircraft entries.

Properties

Name Meaning
Tool Description Choose how to set the tool description:
- Set Automatically: The description is set based on the selected resource and operation.
- Set Manually: Allows manual input of a custom description explaining what the tool does.
Description A text field to manually describe the tool’s purpose and capabilities. This helps language models better understand the tool when set manually. Default: "Access JetNet aviation industry data including aircraft specifications, company information, contact details, and market intelligence".

Output

The node outputs a JSON object with the following structure:

{
  "success": true,
  "resource": "aircraft",
  "operation": "getList",
  "data": [ /* array of aircraft objects as returned by JetNet API */ ],
  "timestamp": "ISO 8601 timestamp string"
}
  • success: Indicates whether the API call was successful.
  • resource: The resource queried ("aircraft").
  • operation: The operation performed ("getList").
  • data: Contains the list of aircraft records retrieved from JetNet. Each record includes detailed aircraft information as provided by the JetNet API.
  • timestamp: The time when the response was generated.

No binary data output is produced by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the JetNet API service.
  • Requires an API authentication token and security token credential configured in n8n (referred generically as "an API key credential").
  • The node makes HTTP requests to the JetNet API endpoints at https://customer.jetnetconnect.com.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Required Parameters: For some operations, specific IDs or parameters are mandatory. For example, the "Get" operation requires an aircraft ID. Omitting these will cause errors.
  • Authentication Errors: Ensure that the API credentials (security token and bearer token) are correctly configured and valid.
  • Unknown Resource or Operation: Selecting an unsupported resource or operation will throw an error indicating the unknown resource or operation.
  • Invalid Input Format: If input parameters are malformed or missing expected fields, the API request may fail.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the JetNet API endpoint can cause request failures.

Common error messages include:

  • "Aircraft ID is required for this operation" — Provide a valid aircraft ID.
  • "Registration number is required for this operation" — Provide a valid registration number.
  • "Unknown aircraft operation: <operation>" — Verify the operation name is correct.
  • "Unknown resource: <resource>" — Verify the resource name is correct.

Resolving these typically involves verifying input parameters, checking credentials, and ensuring network connectivity.
