Overview

This node interacts with the LHDN e-Invoice Malaysia API, specifically to handle authentication by obtaining an access token. It is useful in scenarios where users need to authenticate their API requests to perform further operations such as submitting or managing e-invoice documents. For example, before submitting an e-invoice document, the user must first get an access token using this node.

Use Case Examples

1. A user wants to automate the submission of e-invoice documents to the LHDN system. They first use this node to get an access token, which is then used in subsequent API calls to submit documents.
2. A developer integrates the LHDN e-Invoice API into their workflow and needs to authenticate their requests by obtaining a valid access token through this node.

Output

JSON

• access_token - The access token string used for authenticating API requests
• expires_in - The duration in seconds for which the access token is valid
• token_type - The type of the token, typically 'Bearer'

Dependencies

• An API key credential for LHDN e-Invoice API authentication

Troubleshooting

• Common issues include invalid or expired credentials leading to failure in obtaining the access token. Ensure the API key credential is correctly configured and valid.
• Error messages related to authentication failure usually indicate incorrect credentials or network issues. Verify the credential details and network connectivity to the LHDN API endpoint.
