Device → Get Policy Overrides
AI-generatedOverview
This node operation retrieves policy override information for a specific device in the NinjaOne system. It is useful for scenarios where you need to check or audit the policy exceptions applied to a device, such as security or configuration policies that differ from the standard settings. For example, an IT administrator might use this to verify which policies have been overridden on a particular device to troubleshoot compliance issues or to document exceptions.
Use Case Examples
- Retrieve policy overrides for a device by specifying its Device ID to audit security exceptions.
- Fetch policy override details to verify compliance status of a device before a security audit.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Device ID | The unique identifier of the device for which policy overrides are to be retrieved. This is a required input. |
| Request Options | Optional settings to control the request behavior, including batching of requests, SSL certificate validation, proxy settings, and request timeout. |
Output
JSON
policyOverrides- Array or object containing the policy override details retrieved for the specified device.
Dependencies
- Requires NinjaOne API credentials (OAuth2) to authenticate and authorize API requests.
Troubleshooting
- Ensure the Device ID is correct and exists in the NinjaOne system; an invalid ID will cause errors.
- Check network connectivity and proxy settings if requests fail or time out.
- If SSL certificate validation errors occur, consider enabling the option to ignore SSL issues, but be aware of security risks.
- Verify that the NinjaOne API credentials are valid and have sufficient permissions to access device policy override data.
