Summary

Retrieves a single IT Glue operating system record by its ID via GET operating_systems/{id}, returning it as one flattened n8n item.

Inputs

  • Operating System ID (required) — ID of the operating system to fetch. An empty value (other than "0") raises an error before any request is made. Valid IDs can be found with the Operating System Get Many operation.

Output shape

A single item whose JSON is the operating system record: its attributes with keys converted from kebab-case to camelCase (e.g. name), plus id and type ("operating_systems"), and relationships if the API returns any.

Throws an error if IT Glue returns no data. API errors (401, 403, 429, others) are surfaced as node errors, and 429 responses are retried up to 3 times with backoff. With Continue On Fail enabled, the item output is {error: message} instead. The request uses the region from the IT Glue API credential.

Examples

Example 1: Look up the OS name for a known ID, such as one taken from a configuration record's operating-system-id field.

Resource: Operating System; Operation: Get; Operating System ID: expression like {{$json.operatingSystemId}}

Example 2: Fetch a fixed operating system record by ID.

Resource: Operating System; Operation: Get; Operating System ID: "1"
