Overview

This node interacts with a presence service to retrieve presence information for a specified session. It is useful in scenarios where you need to monitor or manage user presence status in real-time or batch processes, such as in communication platforms or collaborative applications. For example, it can be used to fetch the presence status of all users in a session to display their availability or activity status.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetching presence status of all users in a chat session to update a user interface.
  2. Batch processing presence data for analytics or reporting purposes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Session The name of the session for which presence information is requested.
Request Options Additional options to control the request behavior, including batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy settings, and timeout duration.

Output

JSON

  • presenceData - The presence information retrieved for the specified session, typically including user presence statuses and related metadata.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential or authentication token to access the presence service API.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues include request timeouts, which can be resolved by increasing the timeout setting.
  • SSL certificate validation errors can occur if the server uses a self-signed or invalid certificate; enabling 'Ignore SSL Issues' can bypass this but reduces security.
  • Proxy configuration errors may prevent requests from reaching the server; ensure proxy settings are correct and credentials are provided if needed.
