Actions7
Overview
This node interacts with the Tactical RMM API specifically for managing alert templates and alerts. The "Delete Template" operation allows users to delete an existing alert template by specifying its Template ID. This is useful in scenarios where alert templates are no longer needed or must be removed to maintain a clean alerting system.
Practical example:
- An IT administrator wants to remove outdated or unused alert templates from their monitoring setup to avoid clutter and confusion. Using this node, they can specify the Template ID of the template to delete it directly via the Tactical RMM API.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Template ID | The ID number of the alert template to delete |
Output
The output is a JSON array containing the response from the Tactical RMM API after attempting to delete the specified template. Typically, this will include confirmation of deletion or error details if the operation failed.
No binary data is output by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to the Tactical RMM API.
- Needs an API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests.
- The base URL for the Tactical RMM API must be provided in the credentials.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid or missing Template ID: Ensure the Template ID is correct and exists in the Tactical RMM system.
- Authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
- Network or connectivity problems: Confirm that the base URL is reachable from the n8n environment.
Error messages:
- API errors returned by the Tactical RMM service will be thrown as node errors. These might indicate issues such as "Template not found" or "Unauthorized".
- To resolve, check the Template ID, API key validity, and user permissions.
