Clash of Clans

Comprehensive Clash of Clans API integration with advanced features

Overview

This node integrates with the Clash of Clans API to retrieve detailed information about various game entities such as players, clans, wars, leagues, and locations. Specifically, the "Get Clan Capital Info" operation fetches comprehensive data about a clan's capital, which is a feature in Clash of Clans representing the clan's shared base in the Clan Capital mode.

Use cases for this node include:

  • Monitoring your clan’s capital progress and status.
  • Displaying clan capital details in dashboards or reports.
  • Automating clan management tasks based on capital info.
  • Integrating Clash of Clans data into community websites or apps.

For example, a clan leader could use this node to automatically pull the current state of their clan capital to track upgrades or raid statuses.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API authentication token credential for the Clash of Clans API.
  • The node makes HTTP requests to the official Clash of Clans API endpoint: https://api.clashofclans.com/v1.
  • Proper configuration of the API key credential in n8n is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Clan Tag: If the clan tag does not start with # or is incorrect, the API will return an error. Ensure the clan tag is valid and properly formatted.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API tokens will cause authorization failures. Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up.
  • API Rate Limits: Frequent requests may hit rate limits imposed by the Clash of Clans API. Implement delays or error handling to manage this.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures. Check network access and proxy settings if applicable.
  • Unsupported Operation Error: If the operation parameter is changed incorrectly, the node throws an error indicating unsupported operation.
