Describe the problem/error/question

I understand that its possible to block access to nodes as stated in this doc Block access to nodes | n8n Docs
However I would like to block just the action “Create incident” inside the ServiceNow node. As anyone done something similar? Is it possible? Because I can only find the Servicenow node name not the name for the create incident action - needed to block it

welcome to the n8n community @mfranma
I’m not sure if blocking access to a node works at the operation/action level inside a node, it seems to only work at the node level. There’s no native way to do exactly what you’re asking for.

From my point of view, your options would be to block the entire ServiceNow node, separate the credential scopes, or fork the ServiceNow node and remove the “Create” operation from it. The last one is more work, but gives you full control.
