Overview
This node integrates with the NowCerts API via the Momentum service to create various insurance-related records. Specifically, for the "Create Insured" operation, it sends provided insured data to the NowCerts API to create a new insured entity in the system.
Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include automating the creation of insured profiles within an insurance management workflow, syncing external data sources with NowCerts, or batch processing insured records from other systems.
For example, if you have a CRM that collects client information, you can use this node to automatically create corresponding insured records in NowCerts without manual entry.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Insured Data | JSON object containing the details of the insured to be created. This should conform to the expected schema by the NowCerts API for insured entities. |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects, each representing the response from the NowCerts API after creating an insured record. The json output field contains the full API response, which typically includes details about the newly created insured entity such as its ID and any metadata returned by the API.
No binary data is output by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential with username, password, client ID, and base URL to authenticate against the NowCerts API.
- The node performs OAuth2-style authentication by requesting an access token using these credentials before making API calls.
- Network connectivity to the NowCerts API endpoint is necessary.
Troubleshooting
Authentication failed: No access token received
This error indicates that the authentication request did not return an access token. Verify that the API credentials (username, password, client ID) are correct and that the base URL is properly configured.Authentication failed. Please check your credentials.
General failure to authenticate. Double-check all credential fields and ensure the NowCerts API is reachable.Operation "createInsured" is not supported
This would occur if the operation parameter is set incorrectly. Ensure the operation is exactly "createInsured".API request errors
If the API returns an error response, the node will throw an error including the response body. Check the structure and validity of the JSON provided in "Insured Data" to ensure it meets the API requirements.
