AvantGuard - DNSFilterInstall

Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard DNSFilter API to retrieve information about networks. Specifically, the "Networks All" operation fetches a list of networks with optional filtering and pagination. This is useful for scenarios where you need to manage or analyze multiple network configurations, such as auditing network settings, monitoring network usage, or integrating network data into other workflows.

Practical examples include:

• Retrieving all networks to display in a dashboard.
• Filtering networks to get only basic info or exclude IP addresses for privacy reasons.
• Paginating through large sets of network data to process them in batches.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the list of networks retrieved from the API. The structure typically includes network details such as network IDs, names, and other metadata depending on the query parameters used. If binary data were involved, it would be summarized here, but this node deals solely with JSON network data.
