Overview

This node interacts with the AvantGuard ConnectSecure API to retrieve cipher data related to assets. Specifically, the "Get Retrieve Ciphers View" operation fetches a filtered and optionally paginated list of cipher records associated with asset data. This is useful in scenarios where users need to analyze or audit encryption ciphers used within their infrastructure or applications.

Practical examples include:

  • Retrieving all cipher configurations for a specific user.
  • Filtering cipher data based on custom conditions.
  • Paginating through large sets of cipher records.
  • Sorting cipher data by specified fields.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID User Id header value required to identify the user context for the request.
Additional Query Parameters Optional parameters to refine the query:
- Condition: Query condition/filter string.
- 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 retrieved cipher records from the API. The structure corresponds to the API's response schema for the ciphers view, typically an array of objects each describing a cipher entry with its properties.

If binary data were involved, it would be summarized here, but this node deals only with JSON data.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for AvantGuard ConnectSecure service.
  • Needs the base URL of the AvantGuard ConnectSecure API configured in credentials.
  • Uses the @avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-node package internally to build requests based on OpenAPI specification.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID: The node requires the "X USER ID" header; omitting or providing an incorrect value will cause authentication or authorization errors.
  • Invalid query parameters: Providing malformed or unsupported query conditions may result in API errors or empty responses.
  • API connectivity issues: Ensure the base URL and API credentials are correctly set up and that the network allows access to the AvantGuard API endpoint.
  • Pagination misconfiguration: Setting skip or limit incorrectly might lead to unexpected subsets of data or no data returned.
