Overview

This node integrates with the AvantGuard NinjaOne API to retrieve signed URLs for node attributes related to custom fields. Specifically, the "Get Node Attribute Signed Urls" operation fetches secure, time-limited URLs that allow access to certain attributes of entities such as nodes, locations, or organizations within the NinjaOne system.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Securely accessing files or resources linked to specific nodes or organizational units without exposing direct access.
  • Automating workflows that require fetching protected attribute data from NinjaOne entities.
  • Integrating NinjaOne asset management data into other systems by retrieving signed URLs dynamically.

For example, a user might want to get a signed URL to download a configuration file attached to a particular node or location entity in their infrastructure.

Properties

Name Meaning
Entity Type The type of entity to query. Options: NODE, LOCATION, ORGANIZATION.
Entity Id The unique numeric identifier of the entity (node, location, or organization) to retrieve signed URLs for.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the signed URLs for the requested node attribute(s). The exact structure depends on the API response but generally includes URLs that provide temporary, secure access to the attributes of the specified entity.

No binary data output is indicated by the source code.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard NinjaOne API.
  • The node uses the base URL and authentication headers configured via credentials.
  • Depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package and the provided OpenAPI specification (openapi.json) for request building.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Credentials: If the API key or base URL is incorrect or missing, the node will fail to authenticate. Ensure valid credentials are set up.
  • Entity Not Found: Providing an invalid or non-existent entity ID may result in errors or empty responses. Verify the entity ID exists in NinjaOne.
  • Permission Issues: The API key must have sufficient permissions to access the requested entity's attributes.
  • Network Errors: Connectivity issues to the NinjaOne API endpoint can cause failures; check network settings and firewall rules.
