Overview

This node interacts with the Everest Transport Management System (TMS) to perform various operations. Specifically, for the 'General' resource with the 'Get Platform Info' operation, it retrieves general platform information from the Everest TMS. This can be useful for users who want to fetch metadata or status details about the Everest platform itself, such as system status, version, or other general info provided by the API.

Use Case Examples

1. A logistics company using Everest TMS can use this node to check the current platform status before processing shipments.
2. A developer can retrieve platform info to verify API connectivity and system health as part of an automated workflow.

Output

JSON

• platformInfo - General platform information retrieved from Everest TMS

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for Everest TMS to authenticate requests.

Troubleshooting

• If the node fails to retrieve platform info, check that the Everest API credentials are correctly configured and have the necessary permissions.
• Network issues or incorrect endpoint URLs can cause request failures; verify connectivity to the Everest API.
• If the API response format changes, the node might not parse the data correctly, requiring an update to the node implementation.
