Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard ConnectSecure API to retrieve information about whether a specific asset window requires a reboot. It is useful in IT asset management or system monitoring scenarios where automated checks on asset states are needed, particularly to determine if a reboot is necessary after updates or changes.

A practical example would be an automation workflow that periodically checks critical assets for pending reboots and triggers notifications or maintenance tasks accordingly.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID User identifier required for authentication; passed as a header in the API request.
Id Numeric identifier of the asset window to check for reboot requirement.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the API regarding the reboot status of the specified asset window. The exact structure depends on the API but typically includes fields indicating whether a reboot is required and possibly additional metadata about the asset window.

No binary data output is indicated.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for AvantGuard ConnectSecure service.
  • Needs the base URL of the AvantGuard ConnectSecure API configured in credentials.
  • Depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package for OpenAPI integration.
  • Uses an OpenAPI specification (openapi.json) bundled with the node for request building.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID: Ensure the user ID is provided and correct; otherwise, the API may reject the request.
  • Invalid asset window Id: Providing an incorrect or non-existent Id will likely result in an error or empty response.
  • Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network or connectivity issues: Confirm that the base URL is reachable and the network allows outbound requests to the API endpoint.
