Datto RMM

Kaseya's cloud RMM — the whole estate, one API away.

Datto RMM watches your endpoints from the cloud: devices, patching, monitoring alerts, and the jobs you run against them. It isn't on the board yet — this one is being built in the open, and this page is the plan rather than a shipped surface. Once it's connected, a session will be able to read that picture live instead of you clicking through it.

The story

What changes once it’s connected.

Datto RMM answers the single-site questions well enough — it's the cross-site ones that cost you an afternoon. Which sites have devices dark this morning. What patch state actually looks like across every Windows server, worst first. Which monitor has been crying wolf all month. Once Datto RMM is on the board, those will be sentences you ask once, with the site and the device name attached to the answer, instead of a console tab per client and a CSV export at the end of it.

Nothing here is connected yet, so nothing here is a claim about what it does today. What the connection will read is the estate Datto RMM already tracks: devices and their check-in state, patch status, monitoring alerts and their history, and the jobs run against them. The full skill list, and the honest account of what the connection declines to touch, will be published on this page the day it goes live — the same way every live integration on this board publishes its own. Connecting will use a per-user API key and secret against your platform region, and the connect page will recommend read-only key permissions.

What you’ll be able to ask

Here’s what’s coming.

>Which sites have devices offline right now?
>Patch status across every Windows server, worst first.
>Which monitors alerted most this month?
>Which endpoints haven't checked in since Friday?
>What has that alert been doing all week?
>Which devices are still missing last month's patches?

Connecting

Wire it in, in an afternoon.

How connecting will work

  1. 01You'll enable API access on a Datto RMM user (Setup → Users) and note the API key and secret it issues.
  2. 02You'll need your platform region — the ***-api.centrastage.net host you sign into.
  3. 03Region, key, and secret get entered here; read-only key permissions are what we'll recommend.
