Datto RMM integration

This document outlines the requirements and setup for the Datto RMM integration.

If you’re new to integrations in Rewst, read through our introductory integration documentation here.

What does the Datto RMM integration do?

Our Datto RMM integration enables the automation of RMM tasks. Use the Datto RMM API within Rewst workflows to perform actions such as running scripts and commands, and get query and change managed devices.

Prerequisites for the Datto RMM integration

You'll need to import the Datto RMM CPT file for on-prem scripts to run.

The CPT file can be found here:

976B

Rewst Script Run Powershell.cpt

Download and import the Datto RMM CPT file to enable on-prem scripts.

For instructions on importing a CPT file into Datto RMM refer to Datto's documentation: Importing a Component

During the import, you will need to update your Component's Rewst Base URL. This will vary depending on which Rewst instance you are on. You must update the $rewst_base_url property in the script below to match your Rewst Instance. You can identify which instance you are on by the URL you use to access Rewst. Please use the following table as a guide to identify your Rewst Base URL

Rewst URL	Base URL
app.rewst.io	engine.rewst.io
app.pdx.rewst.io	engine.pdx.rewst.io
app.eu.rewst.io	engine.eu.rewst.io
app.rewst.eu	engine.rewst.eu
app.rewst.asia	engine.rewst.asia

Set up the Datto RMM integration

Set up steps in Datto RMM

Please refer to Datto's documentation for enabling the API for your org if you have not enabled it already. You will need an API-enabled user for your integration setup in the next steps. We recommend creating a new user named Rewst for this.

Here is the Datto RMM Documentation. For the most up-to-date steps for creating an API user, follow their directions.

Copy the API Key, API Secret, and Datto RMM Server for your new API user. Store these somewhere secure, as you'll need the information for futher steps in Rewst.

Set up steps in Rewst

1. Navigate to Configuration > Integrations in the left side menu of your Rewst platform.

2. Search for Datto RMM in the integrations page.

3. Click on the integration tile to launch the configuration setup page.

4. Under Parameters, enter the information you copied from Datto RMM into its relevant fields

   1. API Key

   2. API Secret

   3. Datto RMM Server: The API URL provided to your API user, provided on the same page as the API key and secret

5. Click Save Configuration.

6. Rewst will do a quick validation of your input. Once completed, you'll see a new section beneath the configuration form for organization mapping. Complete your mapping as desired.

Please note that Datto Quick Jobs can take 10 - 30 minutes to execute. To speed this up, you can either use BYOD to speed up form load time. You can find more information here: BYOD for options generators
