Interact with Invertexto API

Overview

This node integrates with the Invertexto API to provide various data transformation and lookup services. Specifically, for the FIPE resource with the Get History operation, it retrieves the historical price data of a vehicle identified by its FIPE code. This is useful for users who want to analyze how the price of a particular vehicle model has changed over time according to the FIPE database, which is widely used in Brazil for vehicle price reference.

Practical examples include:

  • Car dealerships tracking price trends of specific vehicle models.
  • Insurance companies assessing historical vehicle values.
  • Individual buyers or sellers researching price fluctuations before transactions.

Properties

Name Meaning
FIPE Code The unique FIPE code identifying the vehicle whose price history you want to retrieve.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the vehicle's price history as returned by the Invertexto API. This typically includes an array or object detailing past prices, dates, and possibly other metadata related to the vehicle's valuation history.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active API key credential for the Invertexto API.
  • The node makes HTTP GET requests to https://api.invertexto.com/v1/fipe/history/{fipeCode} where {fipeCode} is the user-provided FIPE code.
  • Proper configuration of the API key credential within n8n is necessary for authentication.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing FIPE code: Ensure the FIPE code is correctly provided and formatted.
    • API authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has not expired.
    • Network connectivity problems: Confirm that the n8n instance can reach the Invertexto API endpoint.
  • Error messages:

    • Authorization errors (e.g., 401 Unauthorized): Check the API key credential.
    • Not found errors (e.g., 404 Not Found): Likely caused by an incorrect FIPE code.
    • Rate limiting or quota exceeded: May require upgrading the API plan or waiting before retrying.
