AjaxInstall

Overview

This node, named "Ajax," is designed to interact with a specific Ajax API (version indicated in the code). It supports multiple resources and operations, including the "Network" resource with the operation "Get Status Of Update Ethernet Settings Operation." The node facilitates querying the status of an ongoing update to Ethernet settings on a network device or hub.

Typical use cases include:

• Monitoring the progress or result of Ethernet configuration changes pushed to network hubs.
• Integrating network management workflows where confirmation of setting updates is required before proceeding.
• Automating network diagnostics by checking update statuses programmatically.

For example, after triggering an Ethernet settings update on a hub, this node can be used to poll or retrieve the current status of that update using the provided user ID, hub ID, and authentication token.

Properties

These properties are mandatory for the "Get Status Of Update Ethernet Settings Operation" under the "Network" resource.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the status of the Ethernet settings update operation. This typically includes fields indicating whether the update is pending, successful, failed, or in progress, along with any relevant metadata such as timestamps or error messages.

If the node supports binary data output, it would relate to any raw response or logs from the network device, but based on the static analysis, the primary output is structured JSON reflecting the operation's status.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Ajax API service.
• Depends on the external Ajax API endpoint to fetch the status information.
• Uses internal helper classes for HTTP communication, state management, and operation resolution.
• No additional environment variables are explicitly required beyond the API credential.

Troubleshooting

• Common Issues:

  • Invalid or expired token leading to authentication failures.
  • Incorrect userId or hubId causing the API to return not found or unauthorized errors.
  • Network connectivity issues preventing access to the Ajax API endpoint.

• Error Messages:

  • Authentication errors: Ensure the token is valid and has necessary permissions.
  • Resource not found: Verify that the userId and hubId correspond to existing entities.
  • Timeout or network errors: Check internet connection and API availability.

Resolving these typically involves verifying credentials, input parameters, and network conditions.
