Tabname → List Of Tabname

Overview

This node integrates with the Halo PSA API to perform various operations on different resources. Specifically, for the resource Tabname and operation List Of Tabname, it fetches a list of tab names filtered optionally by query parameters. This is useful when you want to retrieve categorized or typed tabs from the Halo PSA system, for example, to display them in a dashboard, use them as options in further workflows, or synchronize data.

Practical examples:

  • Fetching all tabs of a certain type to dynamically populate UI elements.
  • Retrieving tabs filtered by a specific type ID to process or analyze related data.
  • Automating reports or notifications based on available tab categories.

Properties

Name Meaning
Type Optional filter specifying the type of tabs to list.
Typeid Optional filter specifying the type ID of tabs to list.

These properties are sent as query parameters named type and typeid respectively in the API request.

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects representing the tabs retrieved from the Halo PSA API. Each item corresponds to one tab entry returned by the API.

  • The output JSON structure directly reflects the API response for the "List Of Tabname" operation.
  • If the API returns binary data (not typical for this operation), it would be included in the binary output field, but this operation primarily deals with JSON data.

Example output snippet (conceptual):

[
  {
    "id": "123",
    "name": "Tab A",
    "type": "exampleType",
    "typeid": "456"
  },
  {
    "id": "124",
    "name": "Tab B",
    "type": "exampleType",
    "typeid": "457"
  }
]

Dependencies

  • Requires valid credentials for the Halo PSA API, including base URL, tenant identifier, client ID, and client secret.
  • The node uses these credentials to authenticate requests via custom headers.
  • No additional external dependencies beyond the Halo PSA API and n8n's HTTP request capabilities.

Troubleshooting

  • No credentials returned!
    Ensure that the API credentials are properly configured and connected in n8n before executing the node.

  • Resource or Operation not found errors
    Verify that the resource name is exactly "Tabname" and the operation is "List Of Tabname". Typos or unsupported combinations will cause errors.

  • API request failures
    Check network connectivity, API endpoint correctness, and credential validity. Also verify that any provided query parameters (type, typeid) are valid according to the API specification.

  • JSON parsing errors
    If using advanced parameters like JSON strings for queries or body, ensure they are well-formed JSON.

  • Continue On Fail behavior
    If enabled, the node will return error messages in the output JSON instead of stopping execution, which can help diagnose issues without halting workflows.
