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 [

Early adopters, ABots needs you!

 Want to become an early adopter of SysAid? Get your hands on new developments first ? Give feedback and make the final tweeks on the coming SysAid product releases? Now is your chance to get in. ABots, our new automation bots are planned to be released very soon. ABots are simple plug-n-play bots that automate the most common manual and repetitive IT tasks.  The first release of ABots will provide User Management capabilities within: Microsoft Active Directory, Azure Active Directory, and Microsoft Exchange.  We are looking for some test drivers (preferably from Cloud but On-Prem is also possible) to help put the finishing touches before it's released to everybody else and get it free for 6 months :)

Help with Google User Repository

Hi Everyone,I could use some help with our Google User Repository. I am having a SUPER tough time wrapping my head around how the logic behind the Google User Repository works, especially in conjunction with the Importing Groups feature AND the filtering available when the import groups feature is enabled. No matter what way I initially set the user repository up I wasn’t going to bother with the groups feature. When I was using that way to import ALL of my users were coming into Sysaid from Google despite their Suspended or Active status in Google. So I tried checking the box that says “import active users only” and that didn’t seem to have any effect on the import.So then I got the groups importing. In Google I have 2 dynamic groups. One called active-users, and another one called suspended-users. I was hoping to use one of those as the group to use for importing. But then it also had imported ALL of the Google Groups. Should I just delete my entire user base and group that were impo

Search API Endpoint Stopped working

Hello Everyone! I’ve been using the search API endpoint in our production environment for a while, to ensure that duplicate requests do not get created. Last week though we noticed a lot of duplicates so I went looking for a reason and today discovered that the search API Endpoint stopped working. Since this is kind of urgent I’m happy to hear any and all input that anyone might have. My users are not happy at the moment. :(We use the SysAid cloud version. Here is the call:/api/v1/sr/search?query=($9335$)&fields=title Note the parenthesis and the dollar signs are part of what I’m looking for. The return for this is the following JSON:{    "status": 500,    "message": "Failed to load list of service requests"} Thank youRudy

Switching from Onsite RDS to Microsoft 365

We are in the process of switching from using a traditional Active Directory with an Onsite Exchange Server as our RDS source to a Microsoft 365 Cloud environment including Cloud based Exchange (or whatever they call it now) and I was wondering if anyone had a good guide for that or at least just suggestions.I guess I am looking for any pitfalls I need to be aware of.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

Run Report on Installed software

I am trying to run a report that will show how many instances of particular products we have installed on our assets. I can see the software tab under each of the assets and this shows the data for each asset but I am looking for a consolidated view of, for example, all machines with IE 11 installed. When trying to create the report there doesn't appear to be any field to pull out software items. Please can you advise if there is a way to do this?

Sysaid Agent installation through Intune

Hello, Has anybody managed to successfully deploy the Sysaid agent through Intune? We’ve tried multiple configurations with Win32 and Line of business but it fails repeatedly. We can successfully install it locally via CMD with no issues. Our implementation advisor has said Intune isn’t a supported method and they have no documentation on using Intune to deploy! (Crazy to hear in 2025). Hoping for any assistance on how to get this working, ideally as win32.

Oauth2 is using basic authentication

We are using on-prem SysAid v23.3.40 b5 and Exchange onlineAs most of you are aware Microsoft will be deprecating basic authentication for email next year.  The solution is to use modern authentication like Oauth.  We have had our SysAid setup to use Oauth2 for quite sometime now, but noticed in Exchange mail flow reports that my helpdesk account is using basic authentication.  Any idea how this is possible?   ***update***  after doing some digging,  I noticed in 365 sign in logs that sysaid account is using the authentication protocol ROPC (resource owner password credentials).  which confirms sysaid is not using full OATH2 with modern authentication.Is there a misconfiguration on my side or is this an issue within Sysaid On-prem?Thanks for the help!-Evan

Limit what email domains can open a ticket by Email in SysAid?

Does anyone know of a way to configure SysAid to only allow certain email domains to open a ticket using email, but still allow an external email domain to provide updates to a ticket? IE: An employee opens a ticket with a 3rd party cc’d on the email/ticket, allowing the vendor to provide updates into the ticket, but preventing them (or spam) from generating a new ticket

Multi-Tenancy

I would like to make better use of the SysAid tool we currently have implemented. I’ve been with the company for a short time, and I’ve identified that the tool is not properly configured. The most relevant observations so far are the following: There are several entities sharing the same service catalog. All users access the same self-service portal to create tickets, regardless of the entity they belong to. There are multiple opportunities for improvement, but we haven’t made much progress due to a lack of technical knowledge on proper configuration. The available documentation online is quite limited, so I will try to make as much progress as possible using the current manuals.In the short term, these are the most urgent points I would like to work on: Create separate companies and entities.(Objective: allow the creation of independent service catalogs and establish specific rules per entity or company.) Create customized service catalogs for each entity. Configure separate se

Parsing Asset Data from Rest API

I am pulling asset data from SysAid Rest API into Microsoft Power Automate. I am looking for a better way to parse the data. Currently, I am having to parse the json of the output and then filter the data by each keyCaption value and append that to an array variable. For a amount of assets, currently we’re just over 1000 assets, this process can take upwards of 24 hours to collect my asset variables. Is there a better way to parse the data from the start to get the key values into usable dynamic feilds faster below is a sample of the parse json output of the data.[  {    "info": [      {        "key": "device_status",        "value": 0,        "valueClass": "",        "valueCaption": "",        "keyCaption": "Status"      },      {        "key": "account_id",        "value": "cmhcm",        "valueClass": "",        "valueCaption": "cmhcm",        "keyCaption": "Account"      },      {        "key": "serial",        "value": "",        "valueClass": "",        "valueCaption": "",

Creating child tasks from Email Submission

I’m probably missing something very simple.  I’ve got a Smartsheet form being sent in from a specific email.  I’ve got email routing that looks for the email + specific subject, it uses the proper template.  That was easy.  I want to write some simple logic that looks for specific text in the body, and if it sees it, creates a task inside the already created ticket and assigns it to the proper people.  I can’t seem to get that to function.  Anyone have any ideas?
