Overview

This node enables creating a Configuration Item Note in the Autotask system via its REST API. It is useful for users who want to programmatically add notes to configuration items within Autotask, such as documenting changes, updates, or important information related to a configuration item. For example, a user can automate adding notes when a configuration item is updated or when a support ticket references a configuration item.

Properties

Name Meaning
Fields Defines the specific fields and their values to set when creating the Configuration Item Note. This uses a resource mapper to allow flexible mapping of input data to the note's fields.

Output

JSON

  • id - The unique identifier of the created Configuration Item Note.
  • configurationItemID - The ID of the configuration item to which the note is attached.
  • note - The content text of the note.
  • createdDate - Timestamp when the note was created.
  • createdBy - Identifier or name of the user who created the note.

Dependencies

  • Requires an Autotask API key credential for authentication to the Autotask REST API.

Troubleshooting

  • If the node throws an error about unsupported resource, ensure the resource parameter is set to 'configurationItemNote'.
  • Errors related to authentication usually indicate missing or invalid API credentials; verify the Autotask API key is correctly configured.
  • If required fields are missing in the 'Fields' mapping, the API may reject the request; ensure all mandatory fields for creating a Configuration Item Note are provided.
  • Network or API errors may occur if the Autotask service is unreachable; check network connectivity and Autotask service status.
