Overview
This node fetches detailed account information from the WAX blockchain. It is useful for workflows that need to retrieve on-chain data about a specific WAX account, such as verifying account existence, checking balances, or accessing account metadata.
Practical examples include:
- Validating user accounts before processing transactions.
- Displaying account details in dashboards or reports.
- Integrating blockchain account data into other systems or automations.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Account Name | The exact name of the WAX blockchain account to query. |
| API Endpoint | The URL of the WAX blockchain API endpoint to send the request to (default provided). |
Output
The node outputs an array of JSON objects, each containing the full response from the WAX blockchain's get_account API call under the json field. This includes all available account details such as balances, permissions, and resource usage.
No binary data is output by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the WAX blockchain API endpoint, which must be reachable via HTTP POST requests.
- No special authentication is shown in the code; the endpoint should be publicly accessible or properly configured.
- Uses the Axios HTTP client library internally to perform API requests.
Troubleshooting
- Network errors or timeouts: Ensure the specified API endpoint URL is correct and accessible from the n8n environment.
- Invalid account name errors: Verify that the "Account Name" property is correctly spelled and corresponds to an existing WAX account.
- Unexpected API responses: Check if the API endpoint has changed or requires authentication.
- Empty or missing output: Confirm that input data is provided and the node parameters are set correctly.
