Alert → Get
AI-generatedSummary
Retrieves a single Datto EDR alert by ID via GET Alerts/{id}, optionally limiting the returned fields.
Inputs
- Alert ID (required) — ID of the alert to fetch. Throws an error if empty.
- Options > Fields — Comma-separated list of fields to include in the response. Sent as a LoopBack filter 'fields' list.
- Options > Order — Shown in the UI, but ignored by Get at runtime (only used for Get Many).
- Options > Where (JSON) — Shown in the UI, but ignored by Get at runtime. Only Get Many uses it.
Output shape
One n8n item per input item, containing the alert record as JSON.
If the alert isn't found, the API returns a 404 and the node errors (or emits an {error} item if Continue On Fail is enabled). The Include option is not offered for alerts. Requires the credential Base URL to end with /api.
Examples
Example 1: Fetch full details of an alert from a webhook payload
Alert ID = {{$json.alertId}}; no options
Example 2: Retrieve only selected fields of an alert
Alert ID = abc123; Options > Fields = "id,severity,hostname,type"
