Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard NinjaOne API to retrieve device IDs associated with a specific group. It is useful in scenarios where you need to manage or audit devices within organizational groups, such as inventory management, compliance checks, or targeted device operations.

For example, an IT administrator can use this node to fetch all device IDs belonging to a particular group before running a software update or security scan on those devices.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique identifier of the group for which the device IDs are to be retrieved. This is a required numeric value.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the list of device IDs that belong to the specified group. The exact structure depends on the API response but typically includes an array of device identifiers under a relevant key.

If the node supports binary data output (not evident from the provided code), it would represent any file or media content returned by the API, but this is unlikely for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard NinjaOne service.
  • Needs the base URL of the NinjaOne API configured in the credentials.
  • Depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package and the OpenAPI specification (openapi.json) bundled with the node.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Group Id: Ensure the "Id" property is set to a valid number representing an existing group.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or API errors: Check connectivity to the NinjaOne API endpoint and confirm the base URL is correct.
  • Unexpected API responses: Confirm that the group exists and contains devices; empty results may indicate no devices assigned.
