Interact with Kobana API - Quick access to common operations

Actions215

Overview

This node provides integration with the Kobana API, enabling users to perform various operations on payment utilities and other financial resources. Specifically, for the Payment > Utilities resource with the Get operation, it retrieves detailed information about a specific utility payment by its unique ID.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Fetching details of a particular utility payment to verify status or amounts.
  • Integrating utility payment data into workflows for reporting or further processing.
  • Automating retrieval of payment information as part of larger financial automation pipelines.

For example, a user might use this node to get the status and details of a utility bill payment made through Kobana, then trigger notifications or update records in their accounting system based on the retrieved data.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID The unique identifier of the utility payment resource to retrieve. This is required for the Get operation.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the utility payment resource fetched from the Kobana API. The structure corresponds to the API's response for a utility payment, typically including fields such as payment ID, amount, status, due date, payer information, and other relevant metadata.

No binary data output is indicated for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active Kobana API credential configured in n8n, which includes necessary authentication tokens or API keys.
  • The node dynamically selects the API base URL depending on the environment (production or sandbox).
  • Network access to the Kobana API endpoints is required.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid ID: The "ID" property is mandatory for the Get operation. Omitting it or providing an incorrect ID will result in an error from the API indicating that the resource was not found.
  • Authentication errors: Ensure that the Kobana API credentials are correctly set up and valid. Authentication failures will prevent successful API calls.
  • API endpoint issues: If the API base URL or version changes, the node may fail. Verify that the environment setting matches your intended usage (sandbox vs production).
  • JSON parsing errors: Input properties expecting JSON (not applicable here for Get) must be well-formed; otherwise, the node will throw parsing errors.
