Overview

This node is designed to retrieve information about Windows devices that require a reboot, specifically from the "Asset Data" resource. It is useful in IT asset management and system administration scenarios where administrators need to identify which Windows machines have pending reboots, often after updates or configuration changes. For example, an IT team can use this node to generate reports or trigger workflows that notify users or schedule maintenance windows for rebooting affected devices.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID The user identifier required for authentication or tracking purposes in the API request.
Additional Query Parameters Optional parameters to refine the query results:
- Condition: A filter condition to narrow down the returned assets.
- Skip: Number of records to skip (for pagination).
- Limit: Maximum number of records to return.
- Order By: Field(s) to order the results by.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the list of Windows assets that require a reboot. Each item in the output typically contains details about the asset such as its identifier, status, and any relevant metadata indicating the reboot requirement. There is no indication that binary data is output by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the AvantGuard ConnectSecure service.
  • The base URL for the API must be configured in the node credentials.
  • The node depends on the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package and an OpenAPI specification (openapi.json) bundled with the node for request building.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID: Since the X USER ID header is required, omitting it or providing an incorrect value will likely cause authentication or authorization errors. Ensure this property is correctly set.
  • API connectivity issues: Network problems or incorrect base URL configuration can prevent successful API calls.
  • Invalid query parameters: Providing malformed or unsupported values in additional query parameters may result in API errors or empty responses.
  • Empty results: If no assets are returned, verify the correctness of the query conditions and ensure there are indeed Windows devices requiring reboot in the system.
