Ikoula API Dedicated ServerInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the Ikoula Dedicated Server API, specifically to retrieve detailed information about a dedicated server subscription identified by its IP address. It is useful for users who manage dedicated servers through Ikoula and need to programmatically fetch server details such as configuration, status, or subscription info.

A practical example use case is automating infrastructure monitoring workflows where you want to pull current server details regularly or on-demand to update dashboards or trigger alerts based on server state.

Properties

Output

The output contains a JSON object representing the server details as returned by the Ikoula API. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes server configuration, status, and subscription information.

If the response format is set to XML, the raw XML string is returned inside the data field of the JSON output.

Example output snippet (in JSON mode):

{
  "json": {
    "id": "server-123",
    "ip": "192.0.2.1",
    "status": "active",
    "subscription": { ... },
    ...
  }
}

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Ikoula API.
• The node uses HTTPS requests to the Ikoula API endpoint (https://api.ikoula.com by default).
• The password is encrypted using RSA public key encryption before sending.
• No additional external dependencies beyond standard n8n HTTP request helpers.

Troubleshooting

• No credentials provided!
  This error occurs if the required API authentication credentials are missing. Ensure that valid API credentials are configured in n8n for this node.

• Invalid Server IP or Not Found
  If the server IP does not exist or is incorrect, the API may return an error or empty response. Verify the IP address input.

• API Response Format Issues
  If XML format is selected, downstream nodes expecting JSON might fail. Use JSON format unless XML is specifically needed.

• Network or API Errors
  Network issues or API downtime can cause request failures. Check network connectivity and Ikoula API status.
