Outbound Integration → Post Undefined

Overview

This node integrates with the Halo PSA API, allowing users to perform various operations on different resources within the Halo PSA system. Specifically, for the "Outbound Integration" resource and the "Post Undefined" operation, it sends a POST request with a customizable JSON body to the configured Halo PSA endpoint.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include automating outbound integrations by sending method definitions, URI parameters, headers, body mappings, and output variables to Halo PSA. This can be used to configure or trigger external system interactions defined in Halo PSA workflows.

For example, a user might define an outbound integration that specifies how to call an external REST API, including mapping input values to URI parameters and headers, and then use this node to post that configuration to Halo PSA.

Properties

Name Meaning
Body A JSON object defining the outbound integration methods. It includes arrays of methods, each containing uri_params, headers, body_mappings, output_variables, and several test-related variables (_test_variables, _test_runbook_variables, _test_output_variables, _test_result). The structure allows detailed specification of how outbound calls should be constructed and tested.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects corresponding to the response from the Halo PSA API for each input item processed. Each output item contains:

  • json: The parsed JSON response returned by the Halo PSA API after posting the outbound integration data.
  • If an error occurs and "Continue On Fail" is enabled, the output will contain an error field with the error message instead.

No binary data output is produced by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Halo PSA API.
  • Needs the base URL, tenant identifier, client ID, and client secret for Halo PSA, which are provided via credentials.
  • Uses HTTP requests to communicate with the Halo PSA API endpoints.
  • No additional environment variables or external services beyond Halo PSA are required.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Credentials: The node throws an error if no credentials are found. Ensure that valid Halo PSA API credentials are configured.
  • Resource or Operation Not Found: Errors occur if the specified resource or operation does not exist. Verify that "Outbound Integration" and "Post Undefined" are correctly selected.
  • Invalid JSON in Body: Since the body property expects JSON, malformed JSON will cause parsing errors. Validate JSON syntax before running.
  • API Request Failures: Network issues, incorrect credentials, or invalid request bodies may cause API errors. Check the error messages returned in the output for details.
  • Continue On Fail Behavior: If enabled, errors do not stop execution but are returned as part of the output; otherwise, they throw exceptions.
