Consume Ajax API (v.0.1.2)

Actions242

Overview

The "Ajax" node is designed to interact with a comprehensive Ajax API, supporting multiple resources and operations. Specifically, for the Receiver resource and the Update Hub To Receiver Binding operation, this node updates the association between a hub and a receiver within a company’s system. This can be useful in scenarios where devices or components need to be reconfigured or reassigned dynamically, such as updating network topologies, managing IoT device bindings, or adjusting access control systems.

Practical examples include:

  • Rebinding a security hub to a different receiver after hardware changes.
  • Updating device configurations remotely in a smart building management system.
  • Synchronizing device relationships in an integrated monitoring solution.

Properties

Name Meaning
Company Id The unique identifier of the company under which the receiver and hub exist.
Receiver Id The unique identifier of the receiver whose binding to a hub is to be updated.
Hub Id The unique identifier of the hub to bind to the specified receiver.
Account Number (Optional) An account number related to the binding, possibly used for billing or tracking.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the update operation. This typically includes confirmation of the updated binding status, any relevant metadata about the receiver and hub, and success or error messages from the API.

If the node supports binary data output, it would generally relate to attachments or files returned by the API, but based on the provided code and context, the primary output is structured JSON reflecting the operation's outcome.

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.
  • Utilizes internal backend modules for state management, HTTP client communication, and operation handling.
  • The node expects proper configuration of the API credentials within n8n to successfully communicate with the Ajax backend.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication Errors: If the API key credential is missing or invalid, the node will fail to authenticate. Ensure that the correct API key is configured in n8n credentials.
  • Invalid Identifiers: Providing incorrect or non-existent Company Id, Receiver Id, or Hub Id may cause the API to return errors indicating not found or invalid parameters.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the Ajax API endpoint can cause timeouts or request failures. Verify network access and endpoint availability.
  • Missing Required Parameters: Omitting required fields like Company Id, Receiver Id, or Hub Id will prevent the operation from executing. Double-check that all mandatory inputs are provided.
