PSA Specific settings
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Enable Client Sync | Create N-sight RMM clients as assets in ConnectWise Manage. Synchronizes updates and deletions of clients to mapped assets in the ConnectWise Manage. |
| Enable Site Mapping | Maps N-sight RMM sites to their counterparts in ConnectWise Manage. |
| Enable Site Sync | Create N-sight RMM sites as assets in ConnectWise Manage. Synchronizes updates and deletions of sites to mapped assets in the ConnectWise Manage. |
| Enable Device Sync |
Create N-sight RMM devices as assets in ConnectWise Manage. Synchronizes updates and deletions of devices to mapped assets in the ConnectWise Manage. Removing a device from the N-sight RMM Dashboard (including workstations due to inactivity) marks the device as inactive in ConnectWise Manage.
When this option is enabled, a removed and then re-added device may create a new device item in ConnectWise Manage. |
| Setup Name |
The Setup name (Managed ID) is included for legacy ConnectWise customers. This section is deprecated by ConnectWise and we recommend you do not populate this field as it may lead to problems with the integration. |
| Concatenate device and site name |
Allows the device name to be concatenated with the site name
The N-sight RMM Dashboard uses a hierarchical structure of Client, Site, and Device. Sites only support unique Device names, but multiple Devices with the same name can exist under a Client because they are contained in separate Sites rather than in a direct Client to Device relationship. This can potentially lead to mapping issues in ConnectWise Manage if Site Mapping is disabled because we will attempt to use a Client and Device association without the Site separator for uniqueness. Use the Concatenate device and site name option to alleviate this issue without Site Mapping. When you enable the option, the Site and Device names are joined together to create a unique entity that can then map in ConnectWise Manage. |
