Overview
This node integrates with Binalyze AIR to manage tasks related to digital forensics and incident response. Specifically, the "Task" resource with the "Get" operation allows users to retrieve detailed information about a specific task by its ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to monitor or audit the status and details of forensic tasks such as acquisitions, analyses, or other automated processes managed within Binalyze AIR.
Practical examples include:
- Fetching the current status and metadata of a forensic acquisition task.
- Retrieving task details to trigger conditional workflows based on task completion or failure.
- Auditing task assignments and progress within an incident response workflow.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Task ID | The unique identifier of the task to retrieve. This must be provided to fetch the task. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the detailed information of the requested task. This typically includes fields such as task status, creation time, assigned users, and any relevant metadata associated with the task in Binalyze AIR.
If the node supports binary data output (not indicated here), it would represent attachments or evidence files related to the task, but this is not applicable for the "Get Task" operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Binalyze AIR API.
- The node depends on the Binalyze AIR service being accessible and the API token having sufficient permissions to read task information.
- No additional environment variables are explicitly required beyond the configured API authentication.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Providing an invalid or non-existent Task ID will likely result in an error or empty response.
- Network connectivity problems or incorrect API credentials can cause authentication failures.
- Insufficient permissions on the API token may prevent access to task details.
Error messages and resolutions:
- "Unknown resource" — indicates the resource parameter was set incorrectly; ensure "tasks" is selected.
- Authentication errors — verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and valid.
- Task not found — confirm the Task ID exists and is correctly entered.
