Consume Ajax API (v.0.1.2)

Actions242

Overview

This node, named "Ajax," is designed to interact with an Ajax API, specifically versioned as indicated in the code. It supports multiple resources and operations, including the "Network" resource with the "Send Get Balance Request" operation. The primary function of this operation is to send a request to retrieve balance information related to a user within a network context.

Common scenarios for using this node include:

  • Querying the current balance or credit status of a user identified by their User Id and Hub Id.
  • Integrating balance checks into workflows that manage network devices or services.
  • Automating monitoring or reporting tasks that require up-to-date balance information from the Ajax system.

For example, a workflow could use this node to fetch the balance of a specific user before proceeding with provisioning or billing actions.

Properties

Name Meaning
User Id The unique identifier of the user whose balance is being requested.
Hub Id The identifier of the hub associated with the user, required to scope the balance query.
Additional Fields Optional extra parameters; currently supports:
- Sim Card Index Numeric value (1 or 2) specifying which SIM card index to target for the balance request.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the response from the Ajax API regarding the balance information. This typically includes details such as the current balance amount, currency, and possibly metadata about the user or hub.

If the API returns binary data (not evident from the provided code), it would represent raw response content, but based on the static analysis, the output is primarily structured JSON.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Ajax API service.
  • Depends on the @digital-boss/n8n-designpatterns package for response-operation resolution and execution logic.
  • Uses internal backend modules for HTTP client communication and state management.
  • The node expects proper configuration of the Ajax API credentials within n8n.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid credentials: Ensure the API key credential for the Ajax API is correctly configured and has necessary permissions.
  • Invalid User Id or Hub Id: Providing incorrect identifiers will likely result in errors or empty responses. Verify these values before execution.
  • Sim Card Index out of range: The optional Sim Card Index should be either 1 or 2; other values may cause the request to fail or return unexpected results.
  • API connectivity issues: Network problems or incorrect endpoint configurations can lead to timeouts or connection errors.
  • Unexpected API responses: If the API changes or returns errors, check the node's version compatibility and update if necessary.
