Consume Connect Secure API

Actions222

Overview

This node interacts with the Connect Secure API to retrieve detailed security report data for a specific asset. It is useful in scenarios where users need to fetch security-related information about an asset identified by its unique ID, such as vulnerability reports or compliance status. For example, a security analyst could use this node to automatically pull the latest security report of an asset into their workflow for further analysis or alerting.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID The user identifier required for authentication or tracking purposes in the API request.
Id The unique numeric identifier of the asset whose security report data is being retrieved.

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the security report details of the specified asset. This typically includes various fields describing the asset's security posture, vulnerabilities, and related metadata as returned by the Connect Secure API. There is no indication that the node outputs binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Connect Secure API.
  • The node depends on the external Connect Secure service endpoint defined in the bundled OpenAPI specification.
  • Proper configuration of the API credentials within n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID: If the "X USER ID" header is not provided or incorrect, the API may reject the request. Ensure this property is set correctly.
  • Invalid asset Id: Providing an invalid or non-existent asset ID will likely result in an error or empty response. Verify the asset ID before running the node.
  • Authentication errors: Failure to provide valid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Confirm that the API key credential is configured properly.
  • Network or API downtime: Connectivity issues or service outages can cause the node to fail. Check network access and service status if errors occur.
