Connectwise Permissions

To enable secure warranty sync while following least privilege principles, you’ll need to create a dedicated API member and role.

Custom Role Creation

1

Open System > Security Roles

2

Create a new Role

Best practice is to create a custom role for each integration to be sure to scope the integration to the least priviledged access. Be sure to name the role something easily identifiable, e.g. CyberDrain Only Warranties
