Actions2
- Payment Actions
- Fake Actions
Overview
The node "Ranking Partner Action" integrates with the RankingPartner API and supports multiple resources and operations. For the specified Resource "Fake" and Operation "Fake Update" (internally named send_group_msg), the node sends a fake update message to a selected group. This can be useful for testing workflows, simulating notifications, or sending placeholder messages within an automation.
Practical examples:
- Sending a test message to a group chat before deploying a real notification system.
- Simulating updates in a development environment without affecting live data.
- Automating periodic dummy messages for monitoring or alerting purposes.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Group Name or ID | Select a target group from a dynamically loaded list or specify its ID via expression. |
| Fake | A multiline string input representing the fake message content to send as the update. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data returned by the API request after sending the fake update message. The output is structured as an array of JSON objects, each corresponding to an input item processed. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally contains confirmation or status details about the sent message.
No binary data output is indicated.
Dependencies
- Requires connection to the RankingPartner API using an API key or authentication token configured in n8n credentials.
- Uses dynamic option loading methods (
getGroupList) to populate the "Group Name or ID" property. - No other external dependencies are evident.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing API credentials will cause authentication failures.
- Specifying an invalid group ID or name may result in errors or no message delivery.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API requests.
Error messages:
- Authentication errors typically indicate misconfigured or expired API keys; verify and update credentials.
- "Group not found" or similar errors suggest the group identifier is incorrect; ensure the group exists and the ID/name is accurate.
- Timeout or network errors require checking internet connectivity and API endpoint availability.
