KobanaInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the Kobana API to manage customers and other related resources. Specifically, for the V1 > Customers resource and the Create operation, it allows you to create a new customer record in the Kobana system by sending a JSON request body with the customer's details.

Typical use cases include automating customer onboarding processes, syncing customer data from other systems into Kobana, or programmatically adding new customers as part of a larger workflow.

For example, you might use this node to:

• Create a new customer profile when a user signs up on your platform.
• Import customer data from a CRM or database into Kobana.
• Automate customer creation triggered by external events.

Properties

Note: The "Additional Fields" property is optional and can be used to pass any extra parameters supported by the API that are not explicitly defined in the main request body.

Output

The node outputs the JSON response returned by the Kobana API after creating the customer. This typically includes the newly created customer's details such as their ID, name, contact information, and any other metadata provided by the API.

The output is structured as an array of JSON objects, each representing the result of the create operation for each input item processed.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an active Kobana API credential configured in n8n with appropriate permissions to create customers.
• The node dynamically selects the API base URL depending on the environment (production or sandbox).
• The request is made via HTTP POST to the /v1/customers endpoint of the Kobana API.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid JSON in Request Body: If the JSON provided in the "Request Body" field is malformed, the node will throw a parsing error. Ensure the JSON syntax is correct.
• API Authentication Errors: If the API credentials are missing, invalid, or lack sufficient permissions, the node will fail with an authentication error. Verify the API key/token and its permissions.
• Missing Required Fields: The API may reject requests missing mandatory customer fields. Check the Kobana API documentation for required fields when creating a customer.
• Network Issues: Connectivity problems or incorrect environment selection (sandbox vs production) can cause request failures. Confirm network access and environment settings.
• Continue On Fail: If enabled, the node will continue processing subsequent items even if one fails, returning error details in the output.
