Overview

This node operation deletes (destroys) an Agent Local User by their unique identifier. It is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically remove user accounts from the system, such as automating cleanup of inactive users or managing user lifecycle within a security or network management platform.

For example, if you have a list of local users that should no longer have access, this node can be used to delete those users automatically based on their IDs.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique numeric ID of the Agent Local User to be deleted

Output

The output JSON typically contains confirmation of the deletion action. This may include status information or details about the deleted user record. No binary data output is expected for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authentication with the external service.
  • The node communicates with the AvantGuard DNSFilter API endpoint (https://api.dnsfilter.com).
  • Proper configuration of the API credentials in n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent user ID will likely result in an error response from the API.
    • Missing or incorrect API credentials will cause authentication failures.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent the node from reaching the API endpoint.
  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "User not found" — Verify that the provided user ID exists.
    • "Authentication failed" — Check that the API key credential is correctly configured and valid.
    • Timeout or network errors — Ensure stable internet connection and that the API endpoint is reachable.
