Overview
This node integrates with Binalyze AIR, a digital forensics and incident response platform, to manage various resources including assets. Specifically, the Asset - Get operation retrieves detailed information about a single endpoint asset within the Binalyze AIR system. This is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch current data about an asset such as its status, configuration, or metadata for further processing or decision-making in your workflow.
Practical examples:
- Automatically retrieving asset details before initiating a remote acquisition.
- Fetching asset information to enrich incident reports or case management workflows.
- Querying asset properties to trigger conditional logic based on asset attributes.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Asset | The target asset to operate on. You can select an asset from a searchable list or specify its ID manually. The asset ID must contain only letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the full details of the requested asset. This typically includes fields such as asset identifiers, status, hardware and software inventory, network information, and other metadata managed by Binalyze AIR.
If the asset has associated binary data (e.g., forensic images or evidence files), those would be handled separately by other operations; this "Get" operation focuses on metadata retrieval.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Binalyze AIR platform.
- The node depends on the Binalyze AIR API being accessible and properly configured.
- No additional environment variables are explicitly required beyond the API authentication setup.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Asset ID Error: If you enter an asset ID with invalid characters (anything other than letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores), the node will reject it. Ensure the asset ID format matches the validation regex.
- Asset Not Found: If the specified asset does not exist or is inaccessible, the node may throw an error indicating the asset could not be found. Verify the asset ID or selection.
- Authentication Failures: Errors related to API authentication usually indicate missing or incorrect API credentials. Confirm that the API key credential is correctly configured.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems with the Binalyze AIR API endpoint can cause timeouts or failures. Check network access and API availability.
