IT Glue ExtendedInstall

Summary

Updates an existing IT Glue model (a hardware/product model record) by ID, changing its name and optionally its manufacturer, and returns the updated record.

Inputs

• Model ID (required) — ID of the IT Glue model to update. The node throws an error if it is empty.
• Name (required) — The model name. Always sent in the update body.
• Manufacturer — Manufacturer of the model, picked from a list loaded from IT Glue manufacturers (or set by ID via expression). Sent as manufacturer-id only if a value is set; an empty value is omitted.

Output shape

A single item containing the updated model, flattened from the JSON:API response. Attribute names are converted from kebab-case to camelCase (e.g. manufacturerId), alongside id, type, and any relationships.

Sends a PATCH to /models/{id} with a JSON:API body. Throws if IT Glue returns no data. Requests that hit a 429 rate limit are retried up to 3 times. API errors (401, 403, 429, etc.) become node errors, or an error item if Continue On Fail is enabled.

Examples

Example 1: Rename a model after a vendor changes its product name

Model ID = 456, Name = 'ProLiant DL380 Gen11'; leave Manufacturer blank.

Example 2: Reassign a model to the correct manufacturer

Model ID from a previous Get Many step via expression, Name = existing model name, Manufacturer = 'HPE' chosen from the dropdown.
