IT GlueInstall

Overview

This node integrates with the IT Glue API to manage various IT documentation resources. Specifically, for the "Flexible Asset" resource with the "Delete" operation, it deletes a flexible asset identified by its ID. This is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically remove obsolete or incorrect flexible assets from your IT Glue account, helping maintain accurate and up-to-date asset records.

Practical examples include:

• Automating cleanup of flexible assets that are no longer in use.
• Integrating asset lifecycle management workflows where assets are deleted upon decommissioning.
• Bulk deletion scripts triggered by external events or schedules.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will confirm whether the deletion was successful or provide error details if it failed. There is no indication that binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the IT Glue API.
• The node depends on the IT Glue API being accessible and the provided credentials having sufficient permissions to delete flexible assets.
• No additional environment variables or configurations are explicitly required beyond the API authentication setup.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:

  • Providing an invalid or non-existent Flexible Asset ID will likely cause the API to return an error.
  • Insufficient permissions on the API key may prevent deletion.
  • Network connectivity issues can cause request failures.

• Error messages and resolutions:

  • "Resource not found" — Verify the Flexible Asset ID is correct and exists.
  • "Unauthorized" or "Forbidden" — Check that the API key has delete permissions.
  • Timeouts or network errors — Ensure stable internet connection and IT Glue API availability.
