No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Taime Pro API.
- Needs an API authentication token or key configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
- The node uses internal helper functions to make HTTP requests to the Taime Pro endpoints.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing recipient phone number format may cause the API to reject the request.
- Missing or incorrect API credentials will result in authentication errors.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.
Error messages:
- Authentication failures usually indicate invalid or expired API keys; verify and update credentials.
- Validation errors from the API often point to missing required fields like "To" or "Message".
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded errors require checking your Taime Pro account limits.
Resolving these generally involves verifying input parameters, ensuring valid credentials, and confirming network access.
