Integrate MSP360 Managed Backup into Your Help Desk Portal with Email

Earlier we had an article on 7 best free and open-source ticket systems for MSPs. Today we want to show you how you can integrate the MSP360 Managed Backup solution with your help desk portal using email.

Integration Setup Guide

After following this procedure, you will receive emails about your backup and restore plans right to your help desk portal. You can either get emails about all plans or only about failed backups and restores. Then it’s much easier to handle the issue as a ticket in your portal. We strongly recommend checking the notifications on the Failure Only basis, so you won’t get overwhelmed with tickets about finished backup plans. Here’s a step-by-step setup guide:

Open the MSP360 Managed Backup Console,

Go to the Reporting tab and choose the User Plan Report.

Check the box to indicate that you want to receive notification emails for all users, and choose the status of backup and restore plans you want to be notified about.

Here you can also specify the email subject. For instance, if you choose to get notifications about all plans, it makes sense to have a subject like “%PRODUCT_NAME% %PLAN_TYPE% %RESULT%”. You can also specify the email signature and the language here.

Conclusion
