Connect Secure

Consume Connect Secure API

Actions222

Overview

This node allows updating a tag in the Connect Secure system via its API. It is useful when you need to modify existing tags by changing their properties or metadata. For example, you might want to update the name, description, or other attributes of a tag identified by its ID.

Typical use cases include:

  • Renaming a tag to better reflect its purpose.
  • Updating tag metadata to keep information current.
  • Automating tag management workflows where tags are dynamically updated based on external events.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID The user identifier required for authentication or tracking purposes in the API request.
Data JSON object containing the fields and values to update on the tag.
Id Numeric identifier of the tag to be updated.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Connect Secure API after attempting to update the tag. This typically includes the updated tag details or status information confirming the update operation.

No binary data output is indicated.

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.
  • No additional environment variables or external services are explicitly required beyond the API access.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID: The API may reject requests without a valid user ID header. Ensure this property is correctly set.
  • Invalid tag ID: If the provided tag ID does not exist, the API will likely return an error indicating the tag was not found.
  • Malformed JSON in Data: The Data property must be valid JSON. Invalid JSON will cause parsing errors before sending the request.
  • API authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to update tags.
  • Network or connectivity issues: Ensure the Connect Secure API endpoint is reachable from the n8n instance.

Links and References

  • Connect Secure API documentation (refer to official docs for detailed API usage and schema).
  • JSON formatting guidelines for constructing the Data property payload.
