Interact with ProAbono API

Overview

The node named "ProAbono" integrates with the ProAbono API, enabling users to manage billing-related resources such as customers, subscriptions, and invoices. Specifically, for the "Customer" resource and the "Retrieve a Customer" operation, this node fetches detailed information about a customer identified by a unique reference within the user's own application.

This node is beneficial in scenarios where you need to synchronize or verify customer data between your internal systems and ProAbono's billing platform. For example, you might use it to display up-to-date customer billing status in your CRM or to trigger workflows based on customer subscription details.

Properties

Name Meaning
Reference Customer The unique identifier used within your own application to identify the customer to retrieve.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved customer's details from the ProAbono API. This typically includes all relevant customer information stored in ProAbono, such as contact details, billing information, subscription status, and any other metadata associated with that customer.

If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent attachments or documents related to the customer, but this is not evident from the provided code.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the ProAbono API.
  • Needs credentials including:
    • A business identifier to construct the API base URL.
    • An agent key and an API key for HTTP Basic Authentication.
  • These credentials must be configured in n8n prior to using the node.

Troubleshooting

  • Common Issues:

    • Invalid or missing credentials will cause authentication failures.
    • Providing a non-existent or incorrect Reference Customer ID will result in errors or empty responses.
    • Network connectivity issues can prevent successful API calls.

  • Error Messages:

    • Authentication errors typically indicate invalid API keys or misconfigured credentials.
    • "Customer not found" or similar messages suggest the Reference Customer does not exist in ProAbono.

  • Resolutions:

    • Verify and update API credentials in n8n settings.
    • Confirm the Reference Customer ID is correct and exists in your ProAbono account.
    • Check network access and firewall settings to ensure connectivity to the ProAbono API endpoint.
