Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the updated Rack Storage Item. This output includes all the properties of the rack storage item after the update operation, reflecting any changes made. There is no binary data output.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authentication to the AvantGuard service.
- The node uses a base URL configured in the credentials to send HTTP requests.
- The node depends on the
@avantguardllc/n8n-openapi-nodepackage and an OpenAPI specification (openapi.json) for request building and validation.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid Id: The update operation requires a valid Rack Storage Item ID. Ensure the "Id" property is set correctly; otherwise, the API will reject the request.
- Invalid field values: Providing incorrect types or out-of-range values for numeric fields like
start_unit,end_unit, orstatusmay cause errors. Validate input data before execution. - Authentication errors: If the API key or base URL is misconfigured, the node will fail to authenticate. Verify credentials and endpoint settings.
- Network issues: Connectivity problems can prevent the node from reaching the API. Check network access and proxy configurations if applicable.
- API response errors: The API might return error messages if the resource does not exist or if there are permission issues. Review the error details returned by the node for guidance.
