Overview
This node, named "Avito Read Chat," is designed to retrieve chat messages from the Avito platform. It is useful in scenarios where you want to programmatically access conversation data between users on Avito, such as for monitoring customer inquiries, automating responses, or archiving chat histories.
For example, a user might use this node to fetch all messages from a specific chat identified by a chat ID and user ID, using an API token for authentication.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Token | The API authentication token used to authorize requests to the Avito service. |
| User Id | The identifier of the user whose chat messages are to be retrieved. |
| Chat Id | The identifier of the specific chat conversation to read messages from. |
Output
The node outputs a JSON array containing the chat data retrieved from Avito. Each element in the array represents chat information returned by the API call. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes message details such as sender, timestamp, and message content.
No binary data output is indicated.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Avito API.
- Needs a valid API token (authentication credential) to authorize requests.
- The node uses an internal helper method to return the JSON-formatted data.
- No additional environment variables or external services are explicitly required beyond the API token.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Token or Authentication Failure: If the provided token is invalid or expired, the API call will fail. Ensure the token is current and has the necessary permissions.
- Incorrect User Id or Chat Id: Providing wrong identifiers may result in empty responses or errors. Verify that the user and chat IDs exist and are correct.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures. Check network status and API availability.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might be throttled by the Avito API. Implement retry logic or reduce request frequency if needed.
