Interact with Kobana API - Quick access to common operations

Actions215

Overview

This node integrates with the Kobana API to manage financial account balances. Specifically, the Financial > Balances resource with the Get operation allows users to retrieve detailed information about a specific account balance by its unique ID.

Typical use cases include:

  • Fetching the current balance details of a financial account for reporting or reconciliation.
  • Integrating balance data into workflows that require up-to-date financial status.
  • Automating financial monitoring and alerting based on balance thresholds.

For example, a user might configure this node to get the balance of a particular account before initiating a payment or transfer, ensuring sufficient funds are available.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID The unique identifier of the financial balance resource to retrieve. This is required to specify which balance record to fetch.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the financial balance details retrieved from the Kobana API. The structure typically includes fields such as balance amount, currency, account identifiers, timestamps, and other metadata related to the balance.

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 environment URL based on the credential's environment setting (production or sandbox).
  • No additional external dependencies beyond the Kobana API and proper authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing ID property will cause the request to fail.
    • Incorrect or expired API credentials will result in authentication errors.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.
  • Error messages:

    • "Resource not found": The specified ID does not exist; verify the ID value.
    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
    • "Request timeout" or "Network error": Ensure network access to the Kobana API endpoints.

To resolve these, confirm the correctness of the input ID, validate API credentials, and check network connectivity.
