Licence → Post Undefined

Overview

This node integrates with the Halo PSA API to perform various operations on different resources. Specifically, for the Licence resource and the Post Undefined operation, it sends a POST request with a complex JSON body payload representing licence data and related nested entities.

Typical use cases include automating licence management workflows such as creating or updating licences with detailed configuration, user roles, software assignments, device mappings, and other hierarchical data structures. This is beneficial in IT service management scenarios where licences and their associated configurations need to be programmatically managed or synchronized from external systems.

For example, you might use this node to:

  • Create a new licence record with detailed role mappings and configuration items.
  • Post complex nested licence data including users, devices, software, and custom fields.
  • Automate bulk licence provisioning or updates based on external data sources.

Properties

Name Meaning
Body A JSON object containing the full licence data structure to post. This includes nested arrays and objects such as licence roles, azure connection mappings, configuration items, new software details, devices, user roles, and many other related entities. The JSON must conform to the expected schema of the Halo PSA API for licences.

The "Body" property expects a JSON input that can represent very complex and deeply nested licence-related data. It supports all relevant subfields required by the API for licence creation or update.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects corresponding to each input item processed. Each output item contains:

  • json: The response from the Halo PSA API after posting the licence data. This typically includes confirmation of the created or updated licence, any generated IDs, status messages, or error information if the request failed.

No binary data output is indicated for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Halo PSA API.
  • The node uses credentials providing base URL, tenant ID, client ID, and client secret to authenticate requests.
  • The node depends on the n8n HTTP request helper to send authenticated requests to the Halo PSA REST API.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Credentials: If no credentials are provided or invalid, the node will throw an error "No credentials returned!" Ensure valid API authentication credentials are configured.
  • Invalid Resource or Operation: Errors like "Resource Licence not found" or "Operation Post Undefined not found for resource Licence" indicate misconfiguration of parameters.
  • Malformed JSON Body: Since the body is parsed from JSON, invalid JSON syntax will cause parsing errors. Validate JSON before input.
  • API Request Failures: Network issues, incorrect endpoint URLs, or authorization failures will result in errors from the API. Check credentials and network connectivity.
  • Complex Payload Issues: Due to the highly nested and complex JSON structure, missing required fields or incorrect data types may cause API validation errors. Refer to Halo PSA API documentation for correct schema.

If the node is set to continue on fail, errors will be returned in the output JSON under an error field instead of stopping execution.
