AvantGuard - Pax8 - Vendor Provisioning

AvantGuard - Pax8

Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard Pax8 Vendor Provisioning API, specifically to retrieve details about a single webhook associated with a provisioner. It is useful in automation workflows where you need to fetch configuration or status information about a specific webhook tied to a provisioner entity within the Pax8 platform.

Common scenarios include:

  • Auditing or verifying webhook configurations for a given provisioner.
  • Triggering conditional logic based on webhook details retrieved dynamically.
  • Integrating Pax8 provisioning webhooks data into other systems or dashboards.

Example: You have a provisioner ID and a webhook ID, and you want to get detailed information about that webhook to decide if it needs updating or to log its current state.

Properties

Name Meaning
Provisioner Id The unique identifier of the provisioner whose webhook you want to retrieve.
Webhook Id The unique identifier of the webhook associated with the specified provisioner to fetch.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the details of the requested webhook for the specified provisioner. This typically includes webhook configuration, status, URL, events subscribed to, and other metadata as defined by the Pax8 Vendor Provisioning API.

If the node supports binary data output (not evident from the provided code), it would represent any binary content related to the webhook, but here the focus is on JSON response data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the AvantGuard Pax8 Vendor Provisioning API.
  • The node uses the base URL https://api.pax8.com/v2 for API requests.
  • Depends on the external package @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node for building request properties and handling OpenAPI specifications.
  • Requires the bundled OpenAPI specification file openapi-pax8-vendorprovisioning.json to define available operations and parameters.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid Provisioner Id or Webhook Id: Ensure both IDs are correctly provided and correspond to existing entities in the Pax8 system.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or API errors: Check connectivity to https://api.pax8.com/v2 and ensure the API service is operational.
  • Unexpected response structure: Confirm that the API version matches the OpenAPI spec used by the node; mismatches can cause parsing issues.
