Consume Ajax API (v.0.1.2)

Actions242

Overview

This node, named "Ajax," is designed to interact with the Ajax API (version indicated in the code). It provides a flexible interface to perform various operations on multiple resources related to Ajax's ecosystem. Specifically, for the resource "Access Code" and operation "Update Access Code Password For Company," the node updates the password of an access code associated with a particular company.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Managing security credentials programmatically within a company's Ajax system.
  • Automating password updates for access codes to enhance security policies.
  • Integrating Ajax access control management into broader workflows, such as employee onboarding or security audits.

Practical example:

  • Automatically rotate access code passwords for a company's hubs at scheduled intervals to maintain security compliance.

Properties

Name Meaning
Company Id The unique identifier of the company for which the access code password will be updated.
Hub Id The unique identifier of the hub within the company where the access code resides.
Access Code Id The unique identifier of the specific access code whose password is to be changed.
New Password The new password to set for the access code; must be a 4-6 digit code.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the password update operation. This typically includes confirmation of success or failure, and may contain details about the updated access code or error messages if the operation failed.

If the node supports binary data output, it is not evident from the provided source code snippet and properties related to this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Ajax API.
  • Depends on the HttpClient class for making HTTP requests to the backend Ajax service.
  • Utilizes internal modules for state management and operation resolution/execution.
  • The node expects proper configuration of the Ajax API credentials within n8n.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Credentials: If the API key is missing or incorrect, the node will fail to authenticate. Ensure the correct API key is configured.
  • Invalid Identifiers: Providing incorrect or non-existent Company Id, Hub Id, or Access Code Id will cause the operation to fail. Verify these IDs before running the node.
  • Password Format: The new password must be a 4-6 digit code. Using an invalid format may result in rejection by the API.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures. Check network access and API endpoint availability.
  • API Errors: The node may return error messages from the Ajax API. Review these messages to understand issues like permission errors or rate limits.
