Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the details of the requested account. The structure typically includes all relevant fields returned by the external API for an account entity, such as account name, ID, status, and other metadata.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests.
  • Depends on connectivity to the external service's API endpoint specified in the node credentials.
  • The base URL for API requests is taken from the configured credentials.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Account Id: Ensure the "Account Id" property is provided and correctly formatted; otherwise, the API call will fail.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network issues: Confirm that the n8n instance can reach the external API endpoint.
  • API errors: If the account does not exist or is inaccessible, the node may return an error response from the API. Check the account ID and permissions.

Links and References

  • Refer to the external API documentation for detailed account object schema and error codes.
  • Consult n8n documentation on how to configure API key credentials and handle HTTP request nodes.
