Overview
This node allows you to retrieve a specific Incident from the Ivanti API by either its Incident Number or Record ID. It is useful in workflows where you need to fetch detailed information about a particular incident for further processing, reporting, or integration with other systems. For example, you might use this node to look up an incident's status and owner based on a ticket number provided by a user.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| ID Type | Choose how you want to identify the incident: - Number (IncidentNumber) - Record ID (RecId) |
| Number | The IncidentNumber value of the incident in Ivanti. Required if "ID Type" is set to "Number". |
| Record ID | The RecId value of the incident in Ivanti. Required if "ID Type" is set to "Record ID". |
| Query Parameters | Additional query options: - Select Fields: Specify which fields to include in the response (e.g., IncidentNumber, RecId, Status, Owner). This helps limit the data returned to only what you need. |
Output
The output will be a JSON object containing the details of the requested incident. The structure depends on the selected fields (if any) and the data available in Ivanti. Typical fields may include:
{
"IncidentNumber": "12345",
"RecId": "abcde-12345",
"Status": "Open",
"Owner": "John Doe",
...
}
If binary data is present (unlikely for this operation), it would represent file attachments or similar content related to the incident.
Dependencies
- Ivanti API: Requires access to the Ivanti API endpoint.
- API Credentials: You must configure the
IvantiApicredential in n8n, including the base URL and authentication details. - n8n Configuration: Ensure that SSL certificate validation is handled as per your environment (the node skips SSL validation by default).
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Credentials: If credentials are incorrect or missing, you may receive authentication errors. Double-check your
IvantiApiconfiguration. - Incorrect ID Type/Value: Supplying the wrong type or value for the incident identifier will result in no data found or an error from the API.
- Field Selection Errors: If you specify invalid field names in "Select Fields", the API may return an error or omit those fields.
- Connection Issues: Network problems or incorrect base URL can cause connection failures.
Common error messages:
"Authentication failed": Check your API credentials."Resource not found": Verify the IncidentNumber or RecId."Invalid field name": Review the fields listed in "Select Fields".
