Ajax

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 supports multiple resources and operations, including the "Room" resource with the "Get Room Info" operation. The primary function of this operation is to retrieve detailed information about a specific room within a hub for a given user.

Common scenarios where this node would be beneficial include:

  • Fetching real-time or stored metadata about rooms in a security or building management system.
  • Integrating room data into workflows that require contextual information about physical spaces.
  • Automating monitoring or reporting tasks based on room attributes.

For example, a user might use this node to get the status and configuration details of a particular room identified by its ID within a hub, enabling further automation such as alerting or access control adjustments.

Properties

Name Meaning
User Id The unique identifier of the user requesting the room information.
Hub Id The unique identifier of the hub that contains the room.
Room Id The unique identifier of the room whose information is being retrieved.

These properties are required inputs when performing the "Get Room Info" operation on the "Room" resource.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the detailed information of the specified room. This typically includes all relevant attributes and metadata associated with the room as provided by the Ajax API.

If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown in the provided code), it would represent any binary content related to the room, such as images or documents, but this is not evident from the static analysis.

Dependencies

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

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid credentials: Ensure that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions to access room information.
  • Invalid input parameters: Verify that the User Id, Hub Id, and Room Id are correctly provided and correspond to existing entities in the Ajax system.
  • API connectivity issues: Network problems or incorrect endpoint configurations can cause failures; check network access and API availability.
  • Unexpected API responses: If the API changes or returns errors, the node may fail; review error messages and update the node or credentials accordingly.
