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 multiple resources related to financial and administrative management. Specifically, for the V1 > User Info resource with the Get operation, it retrieves detailed information about a user by their unique ID.

Typical use cases include:

  • Fetching user profile details for display or processing within an automation workflow.
  • Integrating user data retrieval into customer support or account management processes.
  • Automating user-related reporting or synchronization tasks.

For example, you might use this node to get a user's information after they submit a form, then update your CRM or trigger notifications based on that data.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID The unique identifier of the user whose information you want to retrieve. This is a required string input.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the user information retrieved from the Kobana API. The structure of the JSON corresponds directly to the user resource schema provided by Kobana, typically including fields such as user ID, name, email, roles, status, and other relevant metadata.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

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 configured Kobana API credentials.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid or missing ID: If the ID property is empty or incorrect, the API will likely return an error indicating the resource was not found. Ensure the ID is valid and correctly formatted.
  • Authentication errors: If the API key credential is invalid or expired, requests will fail with authentication errors. Verify that the API key is correctly set up in n8n credentials.
  • API rate limits or downtime: Temporary failures may occur due to API rate limiting or service outages. Implement retry logic or check the Kobana status page if persistent issues arise.
  • JSON parsing errors: When providing JSON inputs for other operations, ensure the JSON is well-formed to avoid parsing exceptions.
