- Task Runner Actions
Overview
This node interacts with the Ation Service Agent API to retrieve reports for specific tasks. It is useful in scenarios where users need to monitor or analyze the status and outcomes of automated tasks managed by the Ation Service Agent. For example, it can be used to fetch detailed reports on task execution for auditing or troubleshooting purposes.
Use Case Examples
- Fetching a report for a task to review its execution details.
- Retrieving task reports to monitor performance and outcomes in an automated workflow.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Task ID | The unique identifier of the task for which the report is requested. |
| Request Options | Additional options to customize the request such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy settings, and timeout duration. |
Output
JSON
taskReport- The detailed report data of the requested task.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for the Ation Service Agent API, including the base URL for the API endpoint.
Troubleshooting
- Ensure the Task ID is correctly specified; missing or incorrect IDs will cause request failures.
- Verify that the API credentials are properly configured and include a valid URL; missing credentials will prevent API access.
- If SSL certificate validation errors occur, consider enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option, but be aware of the security implications.
- Check proxy settings if network requests fail due to connectivity issues.
- Adjust the timeout setting if the server response is slow to avoid premature request abortion.
