How to configure the Domotz IT Glue integration

Domotz IT Glue integration

Domotz network management software includes an integration with IT Glue documentation software.

The Domotz IT Glue Integration streamlines the documentation of networks by automatically sending the device and network details discovered by Domotz to IT Glue, and vice versa synchronize the Configurations into the Domotz Device entities.

Note: due to the nature of this type of integration (bi-directional integration with data streaming from Domotz to IT Glue and vice versa), Domotz users are only allowed to configure one single integration with external documentation and Asset Management systems (such as IT Glue, ConnectWise PSA, Synchro).

Domotz will discover devices and device details such as model, MAC address, location, zone, software version, IP addresses and more and automatically send these details directly to IT Glue.

This integration with IT Glue allows you to synchronize the following data between Domotz and IT Glue:

  • Domotz Agents and Devices
  • IT Glue Organizations and Configurations

Keep track of the API Key generated, which will be used in the next step.

Important Note: Domotz cloud will connect to the IT Glue cloud from the following IP addresses:

– 52.71.132.221 for all the users based in North America
– 52.48.78.120 for all the users based on Europe, APAC and Rest of World

If you are using IP Restriction feature on your IT Glue instance, make sure to whitelist the above IP Addresses used exclusively by Domotz.

On Domotz: How to set-up the Domotz IT Glue integration

  2. Select the menu Integrations under the Setup section
  3. Select IT Glue from the list of available documentation services

4. Insert the API key generated on the IT Glue dashboard and then click on the Connect button:

5. After the API key validation, you would see the following page with the list of the Domotz Agents available to link with the IT Glue Organizations:

Note: Expired agents or agents granted by the collaboration system won’t be shown on this list.

How to associate Domotz and IT Glue Items

In this section, you can match Domotz Agents and Devices with IT Glue Organizations and Configurations.

To link a Domotz Agent to an IT Glue Organization, click on the + button under your IT Glue Organizations list:

A pop-up window will appear where you can select the IT Glue Organization you would like to link to a Domotz Agent:

If you want to set the Location for this specific association, choose Select Location and then click on the Link Organization button.
Setting the location is optional and you can change it at any time.

The pop-up window will be closed and after few seconds the information about the linked Organization will be shown, including the number of Domotz Devices matched with the IT Glue Configurations:

Note: The automatic match between Domotz Devices and IT Glue Configurations is based on the following information (in order of priority), based on the data available on the systems:
– Serial Number (when available in Domotz and IT Glue)
– MAC Address (when available in IT Glue)
– IP Address (when available in IT Glue)

How to manage the matching between Domotz Devices and IT Glue Configurations

In this section, you can link or unlink Domotz Devices and IT Glue Configurations.

Match the configuration

  • To manually match a Domotz device with an IT Glue configuration, click on the number of matched devices:
Domotz IT Glue integration screenshot 9
  • To link a configuration to a Domotz Device without any match, click on the Match Configuration button:
Domotz IT Glue integration screenshot 10

A pop-up window will appear from where you can create a new IT Glue Configuration or select an existing one and then link it to the Domotz Device:

  • To allow Domotz to link the Domotz Device to a new IT Glue Configuration (created by Domotz itself), select Create New Configuration and then click on Save.
  • To link the Domotz Device to an existing IT Glue Configuration, select it from the list and then click on Save:

Bulk creation of IT Glue Configurations

In case more than one IT Glue Configuration has to be created at once, for example, if Domotz is used to set up an IT Glue Organization from scratch, the operation can be sped up using the multi-select option next to each row, and the Pick an action button.

To manually unlink already matched Configuration:

  • Click on the button the number of Domotz Devices matched with the IT Glue Configurations:

  • Then click on the button x next to the configuration as shown in the screenshot below:

Important note: There is no confirmation requested before unlinking the Configuration.

How to set up the synchronization

In this section, you will learn how to set-up the synchronization manually or automatically.

In addition, we’ll cover how to define the synchronization direction between the Domotz Agents and the IT Glue Organizations for each field.

Manual Synchronization

To start the manual synchronization, select the desired Agent and then click on the Sync now button:

Domotz IT Glue integration screenshot 15

Note: Only a Domotz Agent already linked to an IT Glue Organization can be selected.

A pop-up window will appear where the user can select the direction of the synchronization between the Domotz Agents and Devices and the IT Glue Organizations and Configurations.

The user has the following options:

  • Synchronization from Domotz to IT Glue:
    If you click on the Domotz > IT Glue button, the information stored on the Domotz Devices will override the information on the IT Glue Configuration.
  • Synchronization from IT Glue to Domotz:
    If you click on the IT Glue > Domotz button, the information stored on the IT Glue Configuration will override the information on the Domotz Devices.
  • Customized synchronization:
    If you click on the Fields Custom Direction button, you can choose the synchronization direction for every single field from the Custom Match Fields Configuration window.

As soon as the user chooses an option for the synchronization, a message In progress will appear next to the Organization name.

  • In case of success of the synchronization, the system will display Last Sync time:
Domotz IT Glue integration screenshot 17
  • In case of an error during the synchronization, the system will display a message Failed Sync and the time of the last successful synchronization:

Note: In case of an error for the synchronization, we invite you to contact our Support team at support@domotz.com

Automatic Synchronization

The automatic synchronization occurs every 12 hours.

To enable the automatic synchronization, click on the toggle on the Sync column, then confirm the operation on the confirmation pop-up.

As soon as the sync toggle is enabled, a new automatic synchronization will occur within the next 5 minutes.

Note: In case of an error during the automatic synchronization, the system will display a message Failed Sync next to the organization name and the automatic synchronization will be disabled.

The automatic synchronization is only based on the direction specified for each field between Domotz and IT Glue.

The user can define the direction of the automatic synchronization from the Match Fields configuration section.

Match Fields configuration

In this section the user can define or disable the synchronization direction of every field:

  • To define or change the synchronization direction of a field, click on the button under the Direction column, for example, Domotz to IT Glue >>.
  • To disable the synchronization between the Domotz and IT Glue fields, click on the toggle on the right side of a desired field to switch it off.

However, some of the fields have their mandatory synchronization direction from Domotz to IT Glue: Current Status, MAC Address, IP Address (First IP) and Hostname, which cannot be changed:

Important Note: The match Domotz & IT Glue Fields configuration displayed on this page will be the one used for every automatic synchronization in terms of the selected synchronization direction.

Important Note: We DO NOT support syncing for assets that have a PSA integration enabled in IT Glue.

How to remove the integration between Domotz and IT Glue

To completely disconnect the integration with IT Glue from Domotz, select the Manage Integration tab on the Services – IT Glue section, then click on the Remove Integration button and the integration will be removed:
