Overview
This node integrates with the IT Glue API to retrieve detailed information about a specific password stored in IT Glue. The "Get" operation under the "Password" resource allows users to fetch a password entry by its unique identifier. This is useful for workflows that need to access or verify credentials securely stored in IT Glue, such as automated deployment scripts, security audits, or integration with other systems requiring password data.
Practical examples include:
- Automatically retrieving a password to use in a deployment pipeline.
- Fetching password details to populate a secure vault or credential manager.
- Auditing password metadata and related resources for compliance checks.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Password ID | The unique identifier of the password to retrieve. This is required to specify which password to get. |
| Options | Additional related resources to include in the response. Possible values: |
| - Password Category: Include the category classification of the password. | |
| - Organization: Include the organization associated with the password. | |
| - Attachments: Include any attachments linked to the password entry. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the requested password object from IT Glue. This includes the password's core attributes and, optionally, related resources if specified in the options (such as category, organization, or attachments). The output structure follows the IT Glue API's JSON:API format, typically containing fields like id, type, attributes (including the password value, name, notes, etc.), and relationships for included related entities.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the IT Glue API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
- The node depends on the IT Glue API being accessible and the provided password ID existing and accessible by the authenticated user.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Password ID: If the provided password ID does not exist or is malformed, the node will likely return an error indicating the resource was not found. Verify the ID is correct.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up.
- Permission Issues: The authenticated user must have permission to access the specified password. Lack of permissions will result in authorization errors.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the IT Glue API endpoint can cause timeouts or request failures.
