Overview
This node integrates with the iFood API to manage merchant-related data, specifically focusing on retrieving the opening hours of a merchant. It is useful for scenarios where users need to programmatically access or update the operating hours of a merchant on the iFood platform, such as for scheduling, reporting, or synchronization with other systems.
Use Case Examples
- A restaurant owner wants to automatically fetch their current opening hours from iFood to display on their website.
- A delivery service integrates this node to check merchant availability based on opening hours before dispatching orders.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Merchant ID | The unique identifier of the merchant whose opening hours are to be retrieved. This property is optional but required to specify which merchant's data to fetch. |
Output
JSON
json- The JSON response from the iFood API containing the opening hours details of the specified merchant.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for iFood API authentication to make authorized requests.
Troubleshooting
- If the Merchant ID is not provided or incorrect, the API call may fail or return an error indicating the merchant was not found.
- Network or authentication errors may occur if the API key credential is missing, invalid, or expired. Ensure the credential is correctly configured in n8n.
- API rate limits or service outages from iFood can cause request failures; check iFood API status and retry later if needed.
