Consume Qonto API

Actions46

Overview

This node integrates with the Qonto API to manage various financial and organizational resources. Specifically, for the Client resource with the Create a Client operation, it allows users to create a new client within a specified organization by providing essential client details such as name, email, phone number, and address.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include automating client onboarding processes, synchronizing client data from other systems into Qonto, or bulk-creating clients as part of workflow automation in financial or CRM applications.

For example, a business could use this node to automatically add new customers to their Qonto account when they sign up on their website, ensuring that client records are always up-to-date without manual entry.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to the Qonto API.
  • Requires an API authentication credential configured in n8n, either via:
    • Login and Secret-Key method, or
    • OAuth2 authentication.
  • The node uses UUID generation internally to create idempotency keys for some operations, but this is handled transparently.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Required Fields: Ensure that Organization ID, Client Name, and Email are provided; otherwise, the API will reject the request.
  • Authentication Errors: Verify that the chosen authentication method is correctly configured and valid. Invalid or expired credentials will cause authorization failures.
  • API Rate Limits or Quotas: If many clients are created rapidly, the API might throttle requests. Implement error handling or delays if needed.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures; check network status and proxy settings if applicable.
  • Error Messages: The node throws errors received from the Qonto API. Common messages may relate to invalid input data or unauthorized access. Review the error message details to adjust parameters or credentials accordingly.
