# GetTaxonomyNodeAssignments

## Overview

GetTaxonomyNodeAssignments retrieves item assignments for a given taxonomy node. Used as a guard check before node deletion to ensure no items are classified under the node being removed.

## Business Rules

- Searches ItemTaxonomyAssignment table for records with taxonomyNodeId matching the given node ID
- Returns all matching assignment records as an array
- Returns an empty array if the node has no item assignments
