KobanaInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the Kobana API to manage DARF payment batches within a financial or payment processing workflow. Specifically, the Payment > DARF Batches resource with the Create operation allows users to create new DARF payment batches by sending a JSON request body describing the batch details.

Typical use cases include automating the creation of DARF (Documento de Arrecadação de Receitas Federais) payment batches for tax payments or other federal revenue collections in Brazil. This node is beneficial when you want to programmatically generate and submit DARF batch payments as part of an automated financial process or integration.

Example scenario: A company uses n8n to automate its tax payment workflows. When certain conditions are met, this node creates a DARF batch with all required payment information, submitting it directly to the Kobana API without manual intervention.

Properties

• Additional Fields: Allows adding arbitrary JSON fields to extend or customize the request beyond the standard properties.
• Request Body: The core data defining the DARF batch, such as payment details, amounts, dates, and other relevant batch metadata.

Output

The node outputs the JSON response returned by the Kobana API after creating the DARF batch. This typically includes details about the newly created batch, such as its ID, status, creation timestamp, and any other metadata provided by the API.

If the API supports binary data output for this operation (not indicated here), the node would handle it accordingly, but based on the static analysis, the output is purely JSON.

Dependencies

• Requires an active Kobana API credential configured in n8n, which provides authentication tokens or API keys necessary to access the Kobana endpoints.
• The node dynamically selects the API base URL depending on the environment (production or sandbox).
• No additional external dependencies are indicated.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid JSON in Request Body or Additional Fields: Since the node parses these inputs as JSON, malformed JSON will cause errors. Ensure that the JSON syntax is correct.
• Authentication Errors: If the Kobana API credentials are missing, invalid, or expired, the node will fail to authenticate. Verify the API key/token configuration.
• API Endpoint Errors: If required fields are missing or incorrect in the request body, the Kobana API may return validation errors. Review the API documentation for required fields.
• Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the Kobana API endpoint can cause timeouts or failures.
• Continue On Fail Behavior: If enabled, the node will continue processing subsequent items even if one fails, returning error details in the output JSON.
