KobanaInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the Kobana API to perform operations on customer data within the "V1 > Customers" resource. Specifically, the "Get" operation retrieves detailed information about a single customer by their unique ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch customer details for further processing, reporting, or integration with other systems.

Practical examples include:

• Retrieving customer profile information before updating records.
• Fetching customer data to display in dashboards or CRM systems.
• Using customer details to trigger workflows based on specific attributes.

Properties

Output

The output is a JSON object representing the customer data retrieved from the Kobana API. It contains all available fields related to the customer record identified by the provided ID.

The node does not output binary data for this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an active Kobana API credential configured in n8n with appropriate permissions.
• The node dynamically selects the API base URL depending on the environment (production or sandbox).
• Network access to the Kobana API endpoints is necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:

  • Invalid or missing customer ID will result in an error from the API.
  • Authentication failures if the API key or credentials are incorrect or expired.
  • Network connectivity problems can cause request timeouts or failures.

• Error messages and resolutions:

  • "404 Not Found": The specified customer ID does not exist. Verify the ID is correct.
  • "401 Unauthorized" or "403 Forbidden": Check that the API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions.
  • "Invalid JSON" errors when providing additional fields or body parameters usually indicate malformed JSON input; ensure proper formatting.
