Overview
This node integrates with the IT Glue API to create a new password entry within a specified organization. It is useful for securely managing and storing passwords associated with various accounts or services in an organization's IT documentation system.
Typical use cases include:
- Automating the creation of password records when onboarding new systems or users.
- Centralizing password management by programmatically adding credentials to IT Glue.
- Enhancing security workflows by ensuring all passwords are stored with relevant metadata and restrictions.
For example, you might use this node to add a new password for a service account in your organization, including details like username, URL, and notes about usage or restrictions.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Organization ID | The unique identifier of the organization where the password will be created (required). |
| Name | The name or label for the password entry (required). |
| Username | The username associated with the password (optional). |
| Password | The actual password value to store (optional, input masked). |
| Additional Fields | A collection of optional fields: |
| - Notes | Additional descriptive notes about the password (multi-line text). |
| - Password Category ID | Identifier for categorizing the password (input masked). |
| - Restricted | Boolean flag indicating if the password has restricted access. |

| - URL | The URL related to the password, e.g., login page or service endpoint. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the newly created password record as returned by the IT Glue API. This typically includes:
- The unique ID of the password entry.
- All submitted fields such as name, username, password (possibly masked depending on settings), URL, notes, and restriction flags.
- Metadata about the creation time and associated organization.
No binary data output is involved.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the IT Glue API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The node expects the API to accept and return data in JSON API format (
application/vnd.api+json). - Proper permissions on the IT Glue account to create password entries within the specified organization.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Required Fields: Errors may occur if "Organization ID" or "Name" are not provided. Ensure these required fields are filled.
- Authentication Errors: If the API key credential is invalid or lacks permissions, the node will fail to authenticate. Verify the API key and its scopes.
- API Rate Limits: Frequent calls may hit rate limits imposed by IT Glue. Implement retry logic or reduce call frequency.
- Invalid Field Values: Providing malformed URLs or invalid category IDs may cause API validation errors. Double-check field formats.
- Password Visibility Flags: Setting "Show Password" incorrectly may lead to unexpected display behavior; confirm intended visibility.
