Overview

This node interacts with the Huntress API to retrieve a specific Summary Report by its ID. It is useful when you want to fetch detailed summary information about security or operational reports managed within the Huntress platform. For example, you might use this node to obtain a summary report for auditing purposes, compliance checks, or to integrate report data into other workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
Summary Report ID The unique numeric identifier of the summary report to retrieve.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the requested Summary Report from the Huntress API. This JSON typically contains all details included in the summary report such as report metadata, findings, timestamps, and related information. There is no indication that binary data is returned.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Huntress API.
  • The node makes HTTP requests to https://api.huntress.io/v1.
  • Proper configuration of the API key credential in n8n is necessary for successful operation.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:
    • Invalid or missing Summary Report ID will cause the request to fail.
    • Incorrect or expired API credentials will result in authentication errors.
    • Network connectivity problems can prevent access to the Huntress API endpoint.
  • Error messages:
    • Authentication failures typically return HTTP status codes like 401 or 403.
    • Not found errors (e.g., if the Summary Report ID does not exist) may return 404.
  • Resolutions:
    • Verify the Summary Report ID is correct and exists in your Huntress account.
    • Ensure the API key credential is valid and has appropriate permissions.
    • Check network settings and firewall rules to allow outbound HTTPS requests to the Huntress API.
