Overview

This node integrates with the AvantGuard CIPP API, specifically targeting operations related to "List" resources. The "Retrieve Edit Ca Policy" operation fetches or retrieves details about a Certificate Authority (CA) policy for editing purposes based on specific query parameters. This node is useful in scenarios where users need to programmatically access and manage CA policies within their security infrastructure, such as automating compliance checks, updating certificate policies, or integrating CA policy data into broader workflows.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically retrieving CA policy details before applying updates.
  • Integrating CA policy information into audit or reporting systems.
  • Using retrieved policy data to conditionally trigger other automation steps.

Properties

Name Meaning
Guid A required string representing the unique identifier (GUID) of the CA policy to retrieve.
State A required string indicating the state filter for the CA policy retrieval.
Tenantfilter A required string used to filter the CA policy by tenant context or scope.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the details of the requested CA policy. The structure corresponds to the response from the AvantGuard CIPP API for the "Retrieve Edit Ca Policy" endpoint. This typically includes fields describing the policy's attributes, status, and configuration relevant to the specified GUID, state, and tenant filter.

No binary data output is indicated in the source code.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard CIPP API.
  • Needs the base URL of the AvantGuard resource API configured in the credentials.
  • Depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package for building request properties and handling OpenAPI specifications.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid GUID, State, or Tenantfilter: Since these are required query parameters, omitting them or providing invalid values will likely cause API errors or empty responses.
  • Authentication errors: Ensure that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or connectivity issues: Verify that the base URL is reachable and correct.
  • Unexpected API responses: Check if the API version or endpoint has changed; update the node accordingly.

Common error messages might include HTTP 400 (bad request due to missing parameters), 401/403 (authentication/authorization failures), or 404 (policy not found for given GUID).
