Overview
The "Get Related Templates" operation in the Tactical RMM Alerts node retrieves templates that are related to a specified alert template by its ID. This is useful when you want to find other alert templates connected or associated with a particular template, for example, to understand dependencies or to manage grouped alert configurations.
Common scenarios include:
- Fetching all templates related to a specific alert template to review or audit their settings.
- Automating workflows that need to process or update groups of related alert templates.
- Integrating with external systems where related alert templates must be synchronized or reported together.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Template ID | The ID number of the alert template for which related templates should be retrieved. |
Output
The output is a JSON array containing the data returned from the Tactical RMM API endpoint for related templates. Each item in the array represents a related alert template object with its properties as defined by the Tactical RMM API.
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 correctly set in the credentials.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Template ID: If the provided Template ID does not exist or is invalid, the API may return an error or empty result. Verify the Template ID before running the node.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or incorrect API key will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key credential is valid and has necessary permissions.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the Tactical RMM API endpoint can cause request failures. Check network access and API availability.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might trigger rate limiting; consider adding delays or retries if needed.
