Consume Autotask REST API

Actions389

Overview

This node interacts with the Autotask REST API to perform operations on Configuration Item DNS Records, specifically supporting a 'Count' operation. It allows users to count the number of DNS record configuration items that match specified criteria. This is useful for inventory management, auditing, or reporting scenarios where knowing the total number of DNS records is required without retrieving full record details.

Properties

Name Meaning
Fields Defines which fields to map or filter on when performing the count operation on Configuration Item DNS Records. This allows users to specify criteria or select fields relevant to the count query.

Output

JSON

  • count - The total number of Configuration Item DNS Records matching the specified criteria.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Autotask REST API.

Troubleshooting

  • If the node throws an error indicating the resource is not supported, verify that the resource parameter is set to 'configurationItemDnsRecord'.
  • Errors related to authentication usually mean the API key credential is missing or invalid; ensure correct credentials are configured.
  • If the count result is zero unexpectedly, check the 'Fields' mapping to ensure the filter criteria are correctly defined.
  • Network or API rate limit errors may occur; verify network connectivity and API usage limits.
