Overview

This node allows you to create a new representative associated with an account in the Straddle system. It is useful for scenarios where you need to programmatically add representatives who act on behalf of accounts, such as onboarding new users or managing authorized personnel within your financial or business platform.

Practical examples include:

  • Adding a new company representative during client onboarding.
  • Automating the creation of representatives when syncing user data from your CRM.
  • Managing compliance by ensuring all required representative details are captured and sent to Straddle.

Properties

Name Meaning
Request Id Optional client-generated identifier to trace and debug a request.
Correlation Id Optional client-generated identifier to trace and debug a series of requests.
Account Id The unique identifier of the account this representative is associated with. (Required)
First Name The first name of the representative. (Required)
Last Name The last name of the representative. (Required)
Dob Date of birth for the representative in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD). (Required)
Ssn Last 4 The last 4 digits of the representative's Social Security Number. (Required)
Email The company email address of the representative. (Required)
Mobile Number The mobile phone number of the representative. (Required)
Relationship JSON object describing relationship information of the representative. (Required)

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created representative resource as returned by the Straddle API. This typically includes all submitted fields along with any additional metadata or identifiers assigned by the API.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Straddle API.
  • The base URL for API requests is dynamically set based on the configured environment credential parameter.
  • The node sends HTTP requests with Content-Type: application/json and expects JSON responses.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Required Fields: Ensure all required properties (Account Id, First Name, Last Name, Dob, Ssn Last 4, Email, Mobile Number, Relationship) are provided; otherwise, the API will reject the request.
  • Invalid Date Format: The Dob must be in ISO 8601 date format (YYYY-MM-DD). Incorrect formats may cause validation errors.
  • Authentication Errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has appropriate permissions.
  • JSON Parsing Issues: The Relationship property expects valid JSON. Malformed JSON strings will cause errors.
  • API Endpoint Environment: Confirm the environment setting matches the intended Straddle environment (e.g., production, sandbox).
