Connect Secure

Consume Connect Secure API

Actions222

Overview

This node provides the ability to delete a specific credential by its ID from the Connect Secure system. It is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically manage and clean up credentials, for example, removing outdated or compromised credentials to maintain security hygiene.

A practical example would be automating the removal of user credentials when an employee leaves an organization, ensuring that their access is revoked promptly without manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID The User ID header value used for authentication or identification in the API request.
Id The numeric identifier of the credential to be deleted.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will include confirmation of deletion or any relevant status messages returned by the API. There is no indication that binary data is output by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Connect Secure API.
  • The node depends on the Connect Secure API being accessible and properly configured.
  • The X USER ID header must be provided as part of the input properties to identify the user context for the deletion request.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID header: The API may reject requests if the user ID header is missing or incorrect. Ensure the correct user ID is supplied.
  • Invalid credential ID: If the specified credential ID does not exist, the API might return an error indicating the resource was not found.
  • Authentication errors: Failure to provide valid API credentials or tokens will result in authorization errors.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems with the Connect Secure API endpoint can cause timeouts or failures.

To resolve these issues:

  • Verify all required inputs are correctly set.
  • Confirm API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions.
  • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability.
