Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard CIPP API to retrieve a synchronized list of Access Point (AP) devices based on a tenant filter. It is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically fetch device information for specific tenants within a network management or monitoring workflow. For example, network administrators can automate the retrieval of AP device data filtered by tenant to integrate with asset management systems or trigger alerts based on device status.

Properties

Name Meaning
Tenantfilter A required string used as a query parameter to filter the list of AP devices by tenant.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the list of AP devices retrieved from the API filtered by the specified tenant. The structure corresponds to the API response and typically includes device details such as identifiers, status, and configuration. There is no indication that the node outputs binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard CIPP API.
  • The base URL for the API is configured via credentials and appended with /api.
  • The node uses HTTP headers to accept and send JSON content (Accept: application/json, Content-Type: application/json).
  • Depends on the external package @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node for building properties and handling OpenAPI specifications.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid tenant filter: Since the tenant filter is required, omitting it or providing an incorrect value may result in errors or empty responses.
  • Authentication errors: Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or API endpoint issues: Verify the base URL and network connectivity to the AvantGuard API.
  • Unexpected API response: If the API changes or returns unexpected data, the node might fail or output incomplete results.
