Overview
The node interacts with the LearningSuite API to retrieve information about groups within the system. Specifically, the "Get Many" operation under the "Group" resource fetches multiple group records. This is useful in scenarios where you want to list all groups or filter them based on certain criteria.
Practical examples include:
- Retrieving all user groups for reporting or synchronization purposes.
- Fetching groups along with their associated users to manage memberships or permissions.
- Integrating group data into other workflows such as notifications or access control.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Additional Options | Collection of optional parameters to customize the request: |
| - Include Users | Boolean option to specify whether to include users belonging to each group in the results. |
Output
The output is a JSON array where each item represents a group object retrieved from the LearningSuite API. Each group object may contain standard group details such as group ID, name, description, and if requested, an embedded list of users belonging to that group.
If the "Include Users" option is enabled, the group objects will include user data nested inside, allowing workflows to process both group and user information simultaneously.
No binary data output is produced by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires a valid API authentication token configured in the node credentials to connect to the LearningSuite API.
- The base URL for the API is taken from the credential configuration.
- The node depends on the LearningSuite API being accessible and responsive.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures.
- Network connectivity problems can prevent the node from reaching the LearningSuite API.
- Requesting to include users when the API does not support it or if the user data is large might lead to timeouts or performance issues.
Error Messages:
"No handler for resource "group" and operation "getAll"": Indicates that the specified resource-operation combination is not implemented or misspelled.- Authentication errors typically mention unauthorized access; verify API keys and permissions.
- Timeout or network errors suggest checking connectivity and API availability.
To resolve these, ensure correct credentials are set, verify the resource and operation names, and confirm the API endpoint is reachable.
