Alarm Category → Delete

AI-generated

Summary

Deletes a NetXMS alarm category by its numeric ID via a DELETE request to /v1/alarm-categories/{categoryId}. Returns a simple success confirmation.

Inputs

  • Category ID (required) — Numeric ID of the alarm category to delete. Defaults to 0, so set it to a real category ID. It is inserted into the request path.

Output shape

One JSON item per input item: { success: true, categoryId: }. The server's response body is discarded.

Each run logs in to the NetXMS server with the credentials and gets a fresh session token. If the request fails (for example, the category doesn't exist or permissions are missing), the node throws an error. With Continue On Fail enabled, it instead outputs { error: } for that item.

Examples

Example 1: Remove an obsolete alarm category by a known ID

Resource: Alarm Category, Operation: Delete, Category ID: 12

Example 2: Delete categories listed by an earlier Get Many step

Resource: Alarm Category, Operation: Delete, Category ID set to the expression {{ $json.id }}
