Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard CIPP API to retrieve groups associated with a specific list. It is designed to fetch detailed group information filtered by various parameters such as group ID, members, owners, and tenant filters. This functionality is useful in scenarios where you need to manage or audit group memberships within an organization's lists, for example, to verify access control or synchronize group data with other systems.

Practical examples include:

  • Retrieving all groups belonging to a particular list to display or process their membership.
  • Filtering groups by specific members or owners to identify responsible parties.
  • Applying tenant filters to segregate data in multi-tenant environments.

Properties

Name Meaning
Groupid The identifier of the group to retrieve.
Members Filter groups by members included in them.
Owners Filter groups by owners associated with them.
Tenantfilter Filter groups based on tenant-specific criteria, useful in multi-tenant setups.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved list groups matching the specified filters. Each item in the output typically contains details about a group, such as its ID, members, owners, and any other metadata provided by the AvantGuard CIPP API.

If the API supports binary data (not indicated here), it would be summarized accordingly, but this node primarily deals with JSON responses.

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 OpenAPI integration.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid API credentials: Ensure that the API key and base URL are correctly set in the node's credentials.
  • Incorrect property values: Verify that the Groupid, Members, Owners, and Tenantfilter fields are correctly filled; empty or malformed inputs may cause the API to return errors or no results.
  • Network issues: Check connectivity to the AvantGuard API endpoint.
  • API rate limits or permissions: Confirm that the API key has sufficient permissions and that usage limits have not been exceeded.

Common error messages might include authentication failures or validation errors from the API indicating missing required query parameters.
