Overview

This node, named "CIPP," interacts with the CIPP API to manage various resources including Licenses. Specifically, for the License resource, it supports an operation called "Create Or Update Excluded Licenses." This operation allows users to create or update licenses that should be excluded from certain processes or considerations within the CIPP system.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include automating license management workflows, ensuring that specific licenses are marked as excluded without manual intervention, and integrating license exclusion logic into broader automation pipelines.

For example, a company might use this node to automatically exclude certain software licenses from billing or compliance reports based on dynamic criteria.

Properties

Name	Meaning
Sku Name	The SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) name of the license to be created or updated as excluded.
Guid	The unique identifier (GUID) associated with the license to be created or updated.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the create or update operation on excluded licenses. This typically includes confirmation details such as the status of the operation, identifiers of the affected licenses, and any relevant metadata returned by the CIPP API.

No binary data output is indicated in the source code.

Dependencies

Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the CIPP API.
The base URL for API requests is dynamically set from the credential's ApiUrl property.
The node expects the CIPP API to be accessible and properly configured to accept JSON requests.

Troubleshooting

Authentication errors: Ensure that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
Invalid GUID or SKU Name: Verify that the provided GUID and SKU Name correspond to valid licenses in the CIPP system.
API connectivity issues: Confirm network access to the CIPP API endpoint specified in the credentials.
Unexpected API responses: Check if the CIPP API has changed or if there are additional required fields not covered by the node properties.
