All you need in order to move to Microsoft 365 Exchange OAuth 2.0 protocol.Tutorial

Two years ago, Microsoft announced that it will no longer support basic authentication protocols (SMTP, IMAP, POP). The time has come when you need to move to a more secure and updated protocol - OAuth 2.0.  Setup of the new email integration is simple:  In SysAid, go to: Settings > Integration > Email.  Click the Create New button, and follow the instructions in this Microsoft 365 Email Integration with OAuth 2.0 Guide. The permissions required on MS side:  Permissions required on Microsoft​​​​ Test and verify the new integration: Send manual email, reply from tickets and take actions that trigger automatic notification.  To disable the SMTP integration [see screenshot below]: In SysAid, go to: Settings > Integration [1] > Email [2]. Choose the SMTP integration list item and uncheck: Select the Outgoing Email tab [3]  Uncheck  Enable outgoing email  Click Apply [5]. Select the Incoming Email tab [4] Uncheck Enable incoming email Click Apply [

Need working example of creating service request via REST API

I’m able to use the login endpoint to retrieve a cookie, and then use that cookie string to request other GET endpoints to return information on users or service request templates…But when I go to create a new service request, I get a very unhelpful Error 500 no matter what I try.I’m currently trying to POST against: /api/v1/sr?view=mobile&type=incident&template=29I’m using ‘mobile’ as the view because it’s the only string I can get to return anything.  As far as I can tell, we only have a ‘DEFAULT’ view setup in Sysaid, but providing ‘default’ as the view URL parameter or not specifying the view URL parameter always returns the Error 500 message, while providing ‘mobile’ as the view URL at least returns "The following mandatory fields are missing: [problem_type, title, status, urgency, impact, priority, request_user, description]" if they are not provided.So, with a header containing my cookie and Content-Type: application/json, and my request body:{ "info": [ {"key"

Registry keys to generate a report.

Is it possible to use the registry keys to generate a report for assets that have a value of 1 vs 0. We are trying to find out if PCs are set to auto login or not. We have the values in our assets from: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\AutoAdminLogon. We do not want to have to verify all 2000 assets individually.

How to share knowledgebase article using direct link

My team has been adding documentation to the knowledge base (FAQ) for our end users. A problem that I have noticed is that I cannot copy the link to specific pages in the FAQ, the link always defaults to the same page. Is there a way to get a link directly to the KB article?I cannot copy/paste the URL to a knowledgebase article to send a user directly to the document.This is particularly a problem with announcements of new features and supporting documentation that is sent via other platforms (email). I cannot include a link for users to click to quickly access the documentation. Is this functionality missing or am I missing something?Thank you!

Scheduled reports created by users no longer with the organization

We have a number of scheduled reports created by a user who will be leaving the organization soon.  These reports are emailed to multiple users.  When the SysAid account for the author of those reports is disabled, will the scheduled reports they created continue to be sent?  If not, what course of action is recommended?

Timer - Still accumulating

Hi there, I’ve run into a bit of a head scratcher. The “Time to Repair” timer is still accumulating on a “Incident” service record that is in the “Waiting for Customer” status but I think I’m going blind. Is there something wrong with the below logic?   (Service Record Type = Incident And (Status <> Closed Or Status <> Rejected Or Status <> Customer Test Or Status <> Waiting for Customer Or Status <> Workaround Or Status <> On Hold Or Status <> Resolved Or Category <> Releases)) Timer screenshot

What is happening with SysAid support?

Hello everyone. Is anyone else having issues with responses from SysAid support? We have been sending them emails directly and trough the web site since July and we haven’t received a single response. Our account has expired and we aren’t able to get someone to enable it. Also someone from SysAid contacted us for new licence prices and when we asked about the account, no response about that. But of course the new licences were sent. Any suggestions how to get in touch with someone to enable our account? Even telephone calls didn’t work. Best regards!

Unable to link tickets

I have created a problem ticket, and now want to link all the incident tickets to the problem ticket that are relevant. I have searched everywhere for a field that resembles Link, Related, Merge etc. and cannot find it anywhere as an option on any of our templates or forms. There’s no sign of any of these options within any ticket types either. I don’t understand why we can’t link tickets, or at least link incidents to problems out of the box with a help desk tool?!

Last modified SLA

Hi there,I’m trying to configure a last modified SLA but running into a slight issue with how it works. For example:When a incident service record has not been modified within the last 15 hours (in certain statuses) - Send a reminder to update the service record. If the administrator updates the service record following the reminder reset it. Following the reminder, if a further 5 hours passes without an administrator updating the service record, set the custom field ‘Last Modified SLA’ to be ‘Breached’. The issue I’m having is the ‘Escalation Agent User’ is resetting the last modified date every-time an escalation rule runs. I don’t believe I can use the ‘Reset Escalation Level’ because that would mean the SLA would never be breached due to the ‘Escalation Agent User’ setting the ‘Last Modify time’. Example:Reminder:Escalates service records with type Incident, only non-merged tickets, with status Active, with priority P1, (Request time > 02-09-2024 And (Status = New Or Status = Op

Custom Notifications

As part of our Custom Notifications we have a simple two-answer survey that is sent out to an end user when a SR is marked as completed.  Currently this is what we’re using…#elseif( ${Status}=="Completed"Hi ${ReqUser.FirstName},Your ticket with a title of ${Title} has been completed with the following resolution - ${Resolution}To help us improve our services, we would love to hear about your experience with us.Did the Support colleague resolve your ticket to your satisfaction?I’d like to be able to tag onto this that I don’t want it to be sent to any of our assigned administrators/process managers. Our IT team tend to raise SR’s on behalf of other users and this means when they’re marked as completed, they receive the survey. Many thanks for any advice.
