Overview

This node allows users to create a new Compliance Assessment by sending a POST request to an external API. It is useful in scenarios where compliance data needs to be programmatically submitted or updated within a system that manages compliance assessments, such as regulatory audits, internal compliance tracking, or automated reporting workflows.

For example, a user might use this node to submit the results of a compliance check performed on a set of controls or policies, including any relevant metadata or status flags.

Properties

Name Meaning
X USER ID The User Id header value required for authentication or identification in the API call.
Additional Body Fields Optional additional JSON fields to include in the request body. Includes:
- data: A JSON object representing compliance assessment details and template status. Default example: { "compliance_assessment": [], "template_status": false }

Output

The node outputs the JSON response returned from the API after creating the compliance assessment. This typically includes confirmation of the created resource, any assigned IDs, timestamps, or status messages.

If the API supports binary data output, it would be included accordingly, but based on the provided code and properties, the output is primarily JSON structured data reflecting the newly created compliance assessment.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the AvantGuard ConnectSecure service.
  • Needs the base URL of the API endpoint configured in the node credentials.
  • Depends on the external AvantGuard ConnectSecure API to process compliance assessment creation requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or invalid X USER ID: The API requires the X USER ID header; ensure it is provided and correctly formatted.
  • Invalid JSON in Additional Body Fields: If the data field contains malformed JSON, the request will fail. Validate JSON syntax before submission.
  • API connectivity issues: Verify network access to the configured base URL and that the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
  • Unexpected API errors: Check the API response message for details; common issues include missing required fields or invalid data formats.
