Get All Scaleway Server Info Copy

This workflow can automatically retrieve server information from multiple regions of the Scaleway cloud service platform and perform data integration and standardization. Users can quickly locate target servers using flexible filtering criteria (such as tags, names, public IPs, and regions). Ultimately, the filtered results are returned through a Webhook interface, enhancing the automation level of cloud resource management. It is suitable for DevOps engineers, operations automation developers, and IT infrastructure teams, enabling efficient server information querying and management.

Get All Scaleway Server Info Copy

Key Features and Highlights

This workflow automatically retrieves server information (including both instance servers and bare-metal servers) from multiple specified regions on the Scaleway cloud platform. It consolidates and standardizes the server data uniformly. Users can flexibly filter the server list based on input criteria such as tags, name, public IP, and region. The filtered results are then returned via a Webhook interface, facilitating easy integration and invocation.

Core Problems Addressed

  • Automated aggregation of server information from multiple regions and different server types (instances and bare-metal)
  • Unified data structure extracting key details such as server name, tags, public IP, type, status, region, and user
  • Multi-dimensional flexible filtering capabilities for quick identification of target servers
  • Real-time data retrieval and integration through a securely authenticated Webhook interface

Use Cases

  • Cloud resource management and monitoring platforms for rapid querying and filtering of Scaleway server assets
  • Integration of server information retrieval modules within automated operations tools
  • Unified aggregation and analysis of multi-region, multi-type cloud server information
  • Business workflows requiring dynamic server searches based on tags, names, IPs, or other criteria

Main Workflow Steps

  1. Webhook Trigger: Listens for HTTP POST requests with basic authentication, receiving filter parameters (search_by and search)
  2. Configuration and Region List Splitting: Defines region lists for instance servers and bare-metal servers, then splits and requests data region by region
  3. Calling Scaleway APIs: Accesses instance and bare-metal server API endpoints respectively to fetch server lists
  4. Data Processing and Consolidation: Extracts core server information via custom code nodes and outputs in a unified format
  5. Dynamic Filtering: Routes to corresponding filter logic nodes based on incoming filter criteria (tags, name, public IP, region) for data filtering
  6. Return Results: Sends the filtered server data back to the requester via the Webhook response node; returns error messages if filter criteria are invalid

Involved Systems or Services

  • Scaleway Cloud Service APIs (Instance Server API and Bare-Metal Server API)
  • n8n Automation Platform Nodes: Webhook, HTTP Request, Code Processing, Conditional Logic, Response Nodes, etc.

Target Users and Value

  • DevOps Engineers and Cloud Platform Administrators: Quickly automate the retrieval and filtering of Scaleway server information to improve asset management efficiency
  • Operations Automation Developers: Simplify server data collection and filtering processes for easy integration into more complex automation tasks
  • IT Infrastructure Teams: Achieve unified management of multi-region, multi-type server data to support precise targeting and rapid response
  • Any applications or systems requiring dynamic API-based queries of Scaleway server status and attributes

This workflow leverages flexible configuration and efficient data processing to enable comprehensive, real-time control over Scaleway cloud servers, significantly enhancing the automation and intelligence of cloud resource management.
