Overview

This node integrates with the Halo PSA API to perform various operations on different resources. Specifically, for the "Generic" resource and the "Get One Generic" operation, it retrieves a single item identified by its ID from the Halo PSA system. This is useful when you need to fetch detailed information about a specific entity in your PSA environment.

Common scenarios include:

  • Fetching details of a particular ticket, asset, or record by its unique identifier.
  • Retrieving additional related details if requested.
  • Integrating Halo PSA data into workflows for reporting, automation, or synchronization with other systems.

Example: You want to get the details of a specific service ticket by its ID to update your internal dashboard or trigger follow-up actions based on its status.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The unique numeric identifier of the item to retrieve from the Generic resource.
Includedetails Optional flag/query parameter to specify whether to include additional details in the response.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved item from the Halo PSA API. The structure of this JSON corresponds directly to the API's response for the requested resource item.

  • The json output contains all fields returned by the API for the specified ID.
  • If the Includedetails property is set, the output may include extended or related information as provided by the API.
  • No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Halo PSA API.
  • The node expects configuration parameters such as base URL, tenant identifier, client ID, and client secret to be provided via credentials.
  • Network access to the Halo PSA API endpoint is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • No credentials returned!
    This error indicates missing or invalid API authentication credentials. Ensure that the required API key credential is properly configured in n8n.

  • Resource or Operation not found
    Occurs if the specified resource or operation name does not match those supported by the node. Verify that "Generic" and "Get One Generic" are correctly selected.

  • Request errors from the API
    Errors returned by the Halo PSA API (e.g., 404 Not Found if the ID does not exist) will be surfaced. Check that the provided ID is valid and accessible.

  • JSON parsing errors
    If additional query parameters or request bodies are provided as JSON strings, ensure they are well-formed.

  • To continue processing subsequent items even if one fails, enable the "Continue On Fail" option in the node settings.
