  6. Click Authenticate.
  7. If Sync Users has been enabled in the previous step, the User Sync screen is now displayed.

  9. For the remainder of the users select either the Create or Exclude buttons in the Matched Passportal Record column. If you have a large list you can just exclude the users you don't want and select the Create Unmatched button to create the remaining users.

  10. If you excluded a user that you would like to later add, simply select the Excluded Records tab and select Create or Match.
  11. You will be able to revisit this page after the initial setup and change any of the settings or create any users you had previously left uncreated. Click Next to continue.

Passportal will attempt to match all existing clients set up in Passportal with their corresponding Kaseya BMS clients, to ensure duplicates are not created. Clients must have identical names for this to work. Select Auto-Match All to start this process.

  13. If you would prefer to manually match the clients, you can also do this by clicking on Match in the Matched Passportal Record column and clicking on the corresponding client in the drop-down.
  14. For the remainder of the clients select either the Create or Exclude buttons in the Matched Passportal Record column. If you have a large list you can just exclude the clients you don't want and select the Create Unmatched button to create the remaining clients.

  18. Review to ensure the expected actions will be taken. Click Finish to complete the integration process.

Once you have completed the process, it may take some time to allow the initial update of assets to occur. Depending on the number of items to sync, this can take several hours. All imported items will appear in their respective clients.
