Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard ConnectSecure API to retrieve information about a specific Agent by its ID. It is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch detailed data about an agent entity within the AvantGuard system, such as for monitoring, reporting, or integration purposes.

For example, you might use this node to:

  • Retrieve an agent's configuration or status before performing further automation.
  • Integrate agent details into a dashboard or CRM system.
  • Validate agent existence or properties during workflow execution.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID The user identifier required for authentication or context in the API request headers.
Id The numeric identifier of the Agent to retrieve from the AvantGuard system.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved Agent object. This typically includes all available fields returned by the API for that Agent, such as its ID, name, status, configuration details, and other metadata.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for AvantGuard ConnectSecure to authenticate requests.
  • Needs the base URL of the AvantGuard API configured in the credentials.
  • Depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package for building request properties and handling API communication.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID: Ensure the "X USER ID" property is set correctly; it is required in the request header.
  • Invalid Agent ID: Providing a non-existent or incorrect Agent ID will result in an error or empty response.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or connectivity issues: Confirm that the base URL is reachable and the network allows outbound connections.
  • API changes: If the API schema changes, the node may fail; updating the node or dependencies might be necessary.
