Overview
This node operation, "Get Related Items With Entity Type," is designed to retrieve items related to a specified entity type within the "Related Items" resource. It is useful in scenarios where you want to fetch associated data entities linked by their relationship type, such as fetching all documents, contacts, or organizations related to a particular item.
Practical examples include:
- Retrieving all documents linked to a specific organization.
- Fetching all technicians related to a service ticket.
- Getting all attachments associated with a contact.
This operation helps automate workflows that depend on understanding and processing relationships between different entity types.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Related Entity Type | The type of related entity to retrieve. Options include: ORGANIZATION, DOCUMENT, LOCATION, NODE, ATTACHMENT, TECHNICIAN, CREDENTIAL, CHECKLIST, END USER, CONTACT, KB DOCUMENT |
Output
The output of this node operation is a JSON object containing the related items matching the specified entity type. Each item in the output typically includes details relevant to that entity type, such as IDs, names, and other metadata.
If the node supports binary data output (not explicitly shown in the provided code), it would represent any file attachments or media related to the entities.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authentication with the AvantGuard NinjaOne service.
- Depends on the AvantGuard NinjaOne API endpoint configured via the base URL credential.
- Uses the
@avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-nodepackage and an OpenAPI specification (openapi.json) to build properties and handle requests.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Incorrect or missing API credentials will cause authentication failures.
- Specifying an unsupported or misspelled related entity type may result in no data returned or errors.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent successful API calls.
Error messages:
- Authentication errors typically indicate invalid or expired API keys; verify and update credentials.
- Validation errors may occur if required parameters are missing; ensure the "Related Entity Type" is selected.
- API rate limits or server errors should be handled by retrying after some time or checking service status.
