Actions7
Overview
This node interacts with the Akeyless API to manage secrets and folders. Specifically, the 'Delete Folder' operation deletes a folder from Akeyless by specifying the folder name and its accessibility type. This node is useful for automating secret management workflows, such as cleaning up unused folders in a secure secrets management system.
Use Case Examples
- Deleting a personal folder named 'project_secrets' to remove outdated secrets.
- Removing a regular folder named 'temp_folder' after a project completion to maintain a clean secret store.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Folder Name | The name of the folder to delete, required for identifying which folder to remove. |
| Accessibility | The accessibility type of the folder, either 'Regular' or 'Personal', which determines the folder's visibility and access control. |
| Additional Fields | Optional additional settings such as request timeout in milliseconds. |
Output
JSON
json- The response data from the Akeyless API after attempting to delete the folder, indicating success or failure details.
Dependencies
- Akeyless API
- API authentication token or access credentials
Troubleshooting
- Ensure that the folder name is correctly specified and exists in Akeyless; otherwise, the API may return an error indicating the folder was not found.
- Verify that the API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions to delete folders.
- If using self-signed certificates, the node allows ignoring unauthorized certificates by setting an environment variable, but this should be used cautiously.
- Common error messages include authentication failures (check credentials) and network timeouts (adjust the timeout setting in additional fields).
