Ajax

Consume Ajax API (v.0.1.2)

Actions242

Overview

The 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 "Room" resource with the "Get Room List" operation. This operation retrieves a list of rooms associated with a given company and hub.

This node is beneficial when you need to programmatically access room data from the Ajax system within an n8n workflow. For example, it can be used to automate fetching all rooms for a particular company and hub to synchronize with other systems, generate reports, or trigger further automation based on room information.

Properties

Name Meaning
Company Id The unique identifier of the company whose rooms you want to retrieve.
Hub Id The unique identifier of the hub within the company to filter the rooms list.

Both properties are required string inputs that specify the scope of the room list retrieval.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the list of rooms retrieved from the Ajax API for the specified company and hub. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes details such as room identifiers, names, and possibly additional metadata related to each room.

If the node supports binary data output, it would represent any binary content returned by the API; however, based on the provided code and context, the primary output is JSON data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Ajax API.
  • Depends on the @digital-boss/n8n-designpatterns package for handling resource-operation resolution and execution logic.
  • Uses 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 and authenticate requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid credentials: Ensure that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions to access the Ajax API.
  • Invalid Company Id or Hub Id: Providing incorrect or non-existent IDs will result in empty results or errors. Verify these values before running the node.
  • Network issues or API downtime: Connectivity problems or server-side issues may cause request failures. Check network connectivity and the status of the Ajax API service.
  • Unexpected API responses: If the API changes or returns unexpected data structures, the node might fail or produce incorrect outputs. Keep the node and its dependencies updated to handle API changes.

Common error messages likely relate to authentication failures, missing parameters, or HTTP request errors. Resolving them involves verifying credentials, input parameters, and network conditions.
