Run Policy

Downloads and runs a policy file ( file.amp ) stored on N-able N-central's server.

Do not use $Result and $ResultString as keywords!

$Result and $ResultString are reserved for system use only. Use caution entering keywords for the Input and Output Parameter names. Some Automation Manager keywords are reserved and can cause an unexpected error if used.

If a policy contains a large number of objects that causes the Automation Manager Designer to slow down, you can split that policy into smaller ones and combine them using Run Policy objects.
