KobanaInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the Kobana API, providing quick access to various administrative and financial operations. Specifically, for the Admin > Users resource with the Get operation, it retrieves detailed information about a specific admin user by their unique ID.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

• Fetching user details for auditing or management purposes.
• Integrating user data retrieval into automated workflows.
• Synchronizing user information between Kobana and other systems.

Example use case: Automatically retrieve an admin user's profile when triggered by an event, then use that data to update records in another system or send notifications.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved admin user object from the Kobana API. The structure corresponds to the user details as returned by the API endpoint /admin_users/{id}.

• The output is a JSON array containing one or more objects (in this case, typically one object per input item).
• Each object includes all available fields describing the admin user, such as name, email, roles, status, and other metadata provided by the API.
• No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an active connection to the Kobana API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
• The node dynamically selects the API base URL depending on the environment (production or sandbox).
• Proper permissions are needed on the API key to access admin user data.

Troubleshooting

• Missing or invalid ID: The "ID" property is required. Omitting it or providing an incorrect ID will result in an error from the API indicating the resource was not found.
• Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
• Network issues: Connectivity problems to the Kobana API endpoints can cause request failures.
• API rate limits: Excessive requests may be throttled; handle such errors by retrying after some delay.
• JSON parsing errors: Input properties expecting JSON must be correctly formatted to avoid parsing exceptions.
