Overview

This node, named "Ajax," is designed to interact with a backend Ajax API (version indicated in the code). It supports multiple resources and operations, including network-related actions such as enabling or disabling GSM network channels. The node acts as a flexible interface to perform various backend operations by sending HTTP requests through an internal HTTP client.

A common use case for this node is managing network configurations programmatically within an automation workflow. For example, enabling or disabling a GSM network channel on a specific hub for a user can be automated based on external triggers or schedules, improving operational efficiency and reducing manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
User Id The identifier of the user associated with the network operation.
Hub Id The identifier of the hub where the GSM network channel state will be changed.
State The desired state of the GSM network channel; options are: ON (enable) or OFF (disable).

These properties are required inputs when performing the "Enable/disable GSM Network Channel" operation under the "Network" resource.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the requested operation. This typically includes confirmation of the action taken, status information, or any relevant response data from the backend Ajax API.

If the operation involves binary data (not evident from the provided code), it would be included accordingly, but for this network operation, the output is expected to be purely JSON.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Ajax backend API.
  • Uses an internal HTTP client to communicate with the backend service.
  • Depends on several imported modules that handle state management, operation resolution, and execution logic.
  • The node expects the backend Ajax API to be accessible and properly configured to accept requests for network operations.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication errors: If the API key credential is missing or invalid, the node will fail to authenticate with the backend. Ensure the correct API key is configured in n8n credentials.
  • Invalid parameters: Missing or incorrect User Id, Hub Id, or State values may cause the backend to reject the request. Verify all required fields are correctly filled.
  • Backend connectivity issues: Network problems or backend downtime will prevent successful execution. Check network connectivity and backend service status.
  • Unexpected responses: If the backend returns errors or unexpected data structures, review the API documentation and ensure compatibility with the node version.
