Overview

This node allows you to interact with the Kobana API, specifically to create new events under the "V1 > Events" resource. The "Create" operation sends a JSON request body to the Kobana API to create an event record.

Typical use cases include automating event creation workflows such as logging system events, tracking user actions, or integrating external event data into Kobana for further processing or reporting.

For example, you might use this node to automatically create an event in Kobana whenever a new customer signs up on your platform, passing relevant event details in the JSON body.

Properties

Name Meaning
Request Body The JSON object representing the event data to be sent in the request body. This is required and should contain all necessary fields for the event creation.
Additional Fields A collection allowing you to add extra JSON fields to the request. This can be used to extend or customize the event data beyond the standard properties.

Output

The node outputs the JSON response returned by the Kobana API after creating the event. This typically includes the newly created event's details such as its ID, timestamps, and any other metadata provided by the API.

If the API returns binary data (not typical for event creation), it would be included accordingly, but for this operation, the output is expected to be purely JSON.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Kobana API.
  • The node dynamically selects the API base URL depending on the environment (production or sandbox).
  • No additional external dependencies are needed beyond the Kobana API access.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid JSON in Request Body: If the JSON provided in the "Request Body" or "Additional Fields" is malformed, the node will throw a parsing error. Ensure that the JSON syntax is correct.
  • Authentication Errors: If the API key credential is missing or invalid, the node will fail to authenticate. Verify that the API key is correctly configured in n8n credentials.
  • 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 event fields.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the Kobana API endpoints (production or sandbox) will cause request failures. Check network settings and endpoint availability.
