AvantGuard - ConnectSecureInstall

Overview

This node operation, "Get Retrieve Remediated" under the "Vulnerabilities" resource, is designed to fetch information about vulnerabilities that have been remediated. It is useful in security and IT operations contexts where tracking the status of vulnerabilities is critical for compliance, risk management, and system health monitoring.

Typical use cases include:

• Retrieving a list of vulnerabilities that have been fixed or mitigated.
• Filtering and sorting remediated vulnerabilities based on specific conditions.
• Paginating through large sets of vulnerability data to integrate with dashboards or reporting tools.

For example, a security analyst might use this node to pull all remediated vulnerabilities from the last month, ordered by severity, to verify remediation efforts.

Properties

Output

The output will be JSON data representing the retrieved remediated vulnerabilities. Each item typically includes details such as vulnerability identifiers, descriptions, remediation status, timestamps, and possibly metadata related to the remediation process.

If the node supports binary data output, it would likely represent attachments or reports related to vulnerabilities, but based on the provided code and properties, the primary output is structured JSON data.

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 and execution.

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.
• Invalid query parameters: Providing malformed or unsupported values in additional query parameters like condition, skip, limit, or order_by may result in API errors or empty responses. Validate these inputs carefully.
• API connectivity issues: Network problems or incorrect base URL configuration can prevent successful API calls. Verify network access and credential settings.
• Rate limiting or permission errors: If the API enforces rate limits or user permissions, exceeding limits or lacking rights may cause errors. Check API documentation and user privileges.
