Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard CIPP API to retrieve user group information associated with a specific list. Specifically, the "Retrieve List User Groups" operation fetches the groups of users linked to a given list based on tenant and user identifiers. This is useful in scenarios where you need to manage or audit user access and group memberships within a multi-tenant environment.

Practical examples include:

  • Fetching all user groups for a particular user within a tenant to verify permissions.
  • Integrating user group data into workflows that automate access control or notifications.
  • Auditing user group memberships across different tenants for compliance purposes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Tenantfilter A string value used to filter the request by tenant. Represents the tenant identifier.
Userid A string representing the user ID for whom the list of user groups will be retrieved.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the user groups associated with the specified user and tenant. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes details such as group names, IDs, and possibly metadata about each group.

If the API supports binary data (not indicated here), it would be summarized accordingly; however, 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 and the bundled OpenAPI specification (openapi.json) for request construction.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid credentials: Ensure the API key and base URL are correctly set in the node's credentials.
  • Invalid tenant or user ID: Verify that the Tenantfilter and Userid properties are correctly provided and correspond to existing entities in the AvantGuard system.
  • Network issues or API downtime: Check connectivity and the status of the AvantGuard API service.
  • Unexpected API responses: Review the API documentation and ensure the node's version matches the API version.

Common error messages might include authentication failures, 404 not found for invalid tenant/user IDs, or 400 bad requests due to malformed parameters. Resolving these involves verifying input values and credentials.
