Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard DNSFilter API to retrieve a list of block pages. The "Block Pages Index" operation fetches an index or collection of block pages, which are typically used in network security contexts to display information when access to certain websites is blocked. This node is useful for administrators who want to programmatically access and manage block page data, such as auditing block pages or integrating block page information into other workflows.

Practical examples include:

  • Retrieving all block pages associated with a specific organization.
  • Paginating through block pages to process or analyze them in batches.
  • Integrating block page data into reporting dashboards or alerting systems.

Properties

Name Meaning
Additional Query Parameters Optional query parameters to customize the request. Includes:
- Organization Id: Numeric ID to filter block pages by organization.
- Page: JSON object specifying pagination details like page number and size.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the list of block pages retrieved from the API. The structure typically includes metadata about the block pages and their details as returned by the service. There is no indication that binary data is output by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard DNSFilter API.
  • The base URL for API requests is https://api.dnsfilter.com.
  • The node expects JSON responses and sends requests with appropriate headers (Accept: application/json, Content-Type: application/json).

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing API credentials will cause authentication errors.
    • Incorrectly formatted additional query parameters (e.g., invalid JSON for the page parameter) may result in request failures.
    • Network connectivity issues can prevent successful API calls.
  • Error messages:

    • Authentication errors typically indicate problems with the provided API key; verify the credential configuration.
    • Validation errors may occur if query parameters do not conform to expected formats; ensure numeric IDs and valid JSON objects are used.
    • Timeout or connection errors suggest network problems; check internet connectivity and API availability.
