Overview
The "Get Alerts" operation for the "Device" resource in this node allows users to retrieve alert information related to a specific device managed within the NinjaOne platform. This is useful for monitoring device health, security events, or other important notifications that require attention. For example, an IT administrator can use this node to fetch recent alerts on a workstation or server to quickly identify and respond to issues such as hardware failures, software errors, or security breaches.

Output
The output JSON contains the alert data retrieved from the NinjaOne API for the specified device. This typically includes details about each alert such as alert type, severity, timestamp, description, and any other metadata provided by the API. The node does not output binary data for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API authentication token configured via OAuth2 credentials to access the NinjaOne API.
- The base URL for the API defaults to
https://api.ninjaone.combut can be overridden by credential settings. - No additional external dependencies are required beyond the configured NinjaOne API credentials.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid Device ID: Ensure the Device ID property is set and corresponds to a valid device in NinjaOne.
- Authentication errors: Verify that the API credentials are correctly configured and have sufficient permissions to read device alerts.
- API connectivity issues: Check network connectivity and NinjaOne service status if requests fail.
- Empty results: If no alerts are returned, confirm that the device has generated alerts and that the correct device ID was used.
