AvantGuard - NinjaOne

Overview

This node integrates with the AvantGuard NinjaOne API to perform management operations. Specifically, the "Reset Alert" operation allows users to reset a particular alert identified by its unique identifier (UID). This is useful in scenarios where an alert has been addressed or acknowledged outside the system, and you want to clear or reset it within NinjaOne to maintain accurate alert status.

Practical examples include:

• Automatically resetting alerts after a maintenance window.
• Clearing resolved alerts programmatically as part of an incident management workflow.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the NinjaOne API after attempting to reset the alert. This typically includes confirmation of the reset action or details about the alert's new state. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally confirms success or failure of the reset operation.

No binary data output is involved.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard NinjaOne API.
• The base URL for the API must be configured in the node credentials.
• Depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package for OpenAPI integration.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid UID: If the provided UID does not correspond to any existing alert, the API may return an error indicating the alert was not found. Verify the UID is correct.
• Authentication errors: Ensure that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to reset alerts.
• Network issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures; check network access to the NinjaOne API endpoint.
• API rate limits: Excessive requests might be throttled; consider adding delays or retries.
