  4. Add Condition:
    • Field: disk_free_gb
    • Type: Number
    • Operator: less than
    • Value: 50
  5. Save

# Part 5: Use AI to Monitor Your Fleet

Now you can ask intelligent questions about your managed endpoints!

# Example Questions:

Status Monitoring:

  • "How many devices are offline right now?"
  • "Which clients have the most offline devices?"
  • "Show me devices that haven't checked in today"
  • "What's the overall health of my fleet?"

Organization Management:

  • "How many endpoints does Acme Corp have?"
  • "Which organization has the most devices?"
  • "Compare endpoint counts across all my clients"

System Analysis:

  • "Show me all Windows 10 devices"
  • "Which endpoints need the most updates?"
  • "Find devices with low disk space"
  • "What's the most common OS version?"

Troubleshooting:

  • "Why are so many devices offline at Acme Corp?"
  • "Show me devices that went offline today"
  • "Which endpoints have been offline the longest?"

Reporting:

  • "Create a summary of my MSP environment"
  • "List all endpoints for [client name]"
  • "Generate a health report for all organizations"

# Part 6: Advanced Configuration

# Filter API Responses

Action1 API supports OData filtering. Use the filter query parameter:

Filter Syntax:

field eq 'value'      - Equals
field ne 'value'      - Not equals
field gt 100          - Greater than
field lt 100          - Less than
field contains 'text' - Contains substring

Combine filters with AND/OR:

status eq 'offline' and last_seen lt '2024-01-25T00:00:00Z'

Examples:

Only Windows devices:

filter: OS contains 'Windows'

Only online devices:

filter: status eq 'online'

Critical disk space:

filter: disk_free_gb lt 20

Specific organization:

filter: organization_id eq '0d1c8d70-83e1-11ef-8ff3-b7b4c2126c06'

# Pagination

Action1 API uses cursor-based pagination.

Query Parameters:

  • limit: Number of results per page (max 1000)
  • offset: Skip first N results
  • cursor: For next page (returned in response)

Example:

/endpoints/managed?limit=100&offset=0

For large fleets, Weavestream will automatically paginate through all results.


# Include Additional Fields

By default, only basic fields are returned. Use fields parameter to get more:

All fields:

fields: *

Specific fields only:

fields: id,name,status,last_seen,OS

Performance tip: Request only fields you need for faster responses.


# Part 7: Multi-Organization Setup

For MSPs with many clients, you have two approaches:

# Approach 1: Single Endpoint for All (Simpler)

  • One endpoint: /endpoints/managed
  • Use filters to segment by organization
  • AI can query across all clients

Pros:

  • Easier setup
  • One place for all data
  • Better for cross-client queries

Cons:

  • Can't set different refresh intervals per client
  • Large data volume in one endpoint

# Approach 2: Separate Endpoints Per Client (More Control)

  • One endpoint per organization: /endpoints/managed/{org_id}
  • Each client gets its own list in sidebar
  • Can set different retention/refresh per client

Pros:

  • Better organization in UI
  • Can prioritize critical clients (faster refresh)
  • Cleaner separation

Cons:

  • More setup work
  • More API calls

Recommended: Start with Approach 1, migrate to Approach 2 as you scale.


# Troubleshooting

# Issue: "Authentication failed" or "Invalid credentials"

Solution:

  1. Verify Client ID and Client Secret are correct
  2. Check that OAuth flow type is set to Client Credentials
  3. Ensure Token URL is https://app.action1.com/api/3.0/oauth2/token
  4. Verify "Use Basic Auth" is unchecked
  5. Make sure your API application has proper permissions in Action1

# Issue: "No endpoints returned"

Solution:

  1. Verify you have managed endpoints in Action1
  2. Check organization ID is correct in path
  3. Remove any filters temporarily to test
  4. Ensure API permissions include "Read Endpoints"

# Issue: "401 Unauthorized"

Solution:

  1. Token may have expired - Weavestream should auto-refresh
  2. Check API application is still active in Action1
  3. Verify permissions haven't been revoked
  4. Try creating a new API application

# Issue: "Status not mapping correctly"

Solution: Action1 status values might be different. Check raw JSON to see actual values:

  • Common values: online, offline, unknown, pending
  • Update status mappings in Weavestream accordingly

# Issue: "Organization ID not found"

Solution:

  1. Sync "Organizations" endpoint first
  2. Check organization still exists in Action1
  3. Verify you have access to that organization
  4. Use the id field, not the name

# Issue: "Too many API calls / Rate limited"

Solution:

  1. Increase refresh interval (15 min → 30 min)
  2. Reduce number of endpoints
  3. Use filters to limit data instead of multiple endpoints
  4. Set max items per sync lower

# API Rate Limits

Action1 API limits (check your plan):

  • Standard: ~100 requests per minute
  • Enterprise: Higher limits

Best practices:

  • Don't set refresh interval below 15 minutes
  • Use filters to reduce data volume
  • Monitor your API usage in Action1 dashboard

# Security Best Practices

# Do:

  • Use read-only API permissions (no write access needed)
  • Rotate Client Secret every 90 days
  • Store credentials securely (Weavestream uses macOS Keychain)
  • Create separate API applications per integration
  • Monitor API usage regularly

# Don't:

  • Grant write/delete permissions unless absolutely necessary
  • Share Client Secret with anyone
  • Use the same API key for multiple purposes
  • Store credentials in plain text
  • Leave inactive API applications enabled

# Additional Action1 Endpoints

Here are more endpoints you can add:

# Software Inventory

Path: /endpoints/managed/{endpoint_id}/software

Get installed software on a specific endpoint.

# Policies

Path: /policies

List all policies applied across organizations.

# Groups

Path: /groups

Get endpoint groups for organizing devices.

# Users

Path: /users

List Action1 users and their roles.

# Audit Log

Path: /audit-log

Track changes and actions in your Action1 environment.


# Integration with Other Tools

Action1 works great alongside:

NinjaOne/Datto/ConnectWise:

  • Cross-reference devices between RMM platforms
  • Compare endpoint counts and coverage
  • Validate monitoring across tools

Azure/Microsoft 365:

  • Match endpoints to Azure AD devices
  • Verify domain-joined status
  • Cross-reference with Intune

Backup Solutions:

  • Identify endpoints missing from backup
  • Verify backup coverage across all devices

# Summary Checklist

You're all set! Monitor your entire MSP fleet from one dashboard. 🚀


# Pro Tips for MSPs

Tip 1: Priority Clients Create separate endpoints for VIP clients with 5-minute refresh intervals for real-time monitoring.

Tip 2: Morning Health Check Create a filter: "Offline since yesterday" to catch overnight issues first thing.

Tip 3: Compliance Reporting Use AI to generate monthly reports: "Summarize endpoint health for all organizations this month"

Tip 4: Proactive Monitoring Set up filters for common issues:

  • Low disk space (<50GB)
  • Outdated OS versions
  • Devices not seen in 48+ hours
  • High pending update counts

Tip 5: Client Handoff Export organization-specific views for client reports or handoff documentation.

Troubleshooting:

  • "Why are so many devices offline at Acme Corp?"
  • "Show me devices that went offline today"
  • "Which endpoints have been offline the longest?"

Reporting:

  • "Create a summary of my MSP environment"
  • "List all endpoints for [client name]"
  • "Generate a health report for all organizations"

# Part 6: Advanced Configuration

# Filter API Responses

Action1 API supports OData filtering. Use the filter query parameter:

Filter Syntax:

field eq 'value'      - Equals
field ne 'value'      - Not equals
field gt 100          - Greater than
field lt 100          - Less than
field contains 'text' - Contains substring

Combine filters with AND/OR:

status eq 'offline' and last_seen lt '2024-01-25T00:00:00Z'

Examples:

Only Windows devices:

filter: OS contains 'Windows'

Only online devices:

filter: status eq 'online'

Critical disk space:

filter: disk_free_gb lt 20

Specific organization:

filter: organization_id eq '0d1c8d70-83e1-11ef-8ff3-b7b4c2126c06'

# Pagination

Action1 API uses cursor-based pagination.

Query Parameters:

  • limit: Number of results per page (max 1000)
  • offset: Skip first N results
  • cursor: For next page (returned in response)

Example:

/endpoints/managed?limit=100&offset=0

For large fleets, Weavestream will automatically paginate through all results.


# Include Additional Fields

By default, only basic fields are returned. Use fields parameter to get more:

All fields:

fields: *

Specific fields only:

fields: id,name,status,last_seen,OS

Performance tip: Request only fields you need for faster responses.


# Part 7: Multi-Organization Setup

For MSPs with many clients, you have two approaches:

# Approach 1: Single Endpoint for All (Simpler)

  • One endpoint: /endpoints/managed
  • Use filters to segment by organization
  • AI can query across all clients

Pros:

  • Easier setup
  • One place for all data
  • Better for cross-client queries

Cons:

  • Can't set different refresh intervals per client
  • Large data volume in one endpoint

# Approach 2: Separate Endpoints Per Client (More Control)

  • One endpoint per organization: /endpoints/managed/{org_id}
  • Each client gets its own list in sidebar
  • Can set different retention/refresh per client

Pros:

  • Better organization in UI
  • Can prioritize critical clients (faster refresh)
  • Cleaner separation

Cons:

  • More setup work
  • More API calls

Recommended: Start with Approach 1, migrate to Approach 2 as you scale.


# Troubleshooting

# Issue: "Authentication failed" or "Invalid credentials"

Solution:

  1. Verify Client ID and Client Secret are correct
  2. Check that OAuth flow type is set to Client Credentials
  3. Ensure Token URL is https://app.action1.com/api/3.0/oauth2/token
  4. Verify "Use Basic Auth" is unchecked
  5. Make sure your API application has proper permissions in Action1

# Issue: "No endpoints returned"

Solution:

  1. Verify you have managed endpoints in Action1
  2. Check organization ID is correct in path
  3. Remove any filters temporarily to test
  4. Ensure API permissions include "Read Endpoints"

# Issue: "401 Unauthorized"

Solution:

  1. Token may have expired - Weavestream should auto-refresh
  2. Check API application is still active in Action1
  3. Verify permissions haven't been revoked
  4. Try creating a new API application

# Issue: "Status not mapping correctly"

Solution: Action1 status values might be different. Check raw JSON to see actual values:

  • Common values: online, offline, unknown, pending
  • Update status mappings in Weavestream accordingly

# Issue: "Organization ID not found"

Solution:

  1. Sync "Organizations" endpoint first
  2. Check organization still exists in Action1
  3. Verify you have access to that organization
  4. Use the id field, not the name

# Issue: "Too many API calls / Rate limited"

Solution:

  1. Increase refresh interval (15 min → 30 min)
  2. Reduce number of endpoints
  3. Use filters to limit data instead of multiple endpoints
  4. Set max items per sync lower

# API Rate Limits

Action1 API limits (check your plan):

  • Standard: ~100 requests per minute
  • Enterprise: Higher limits

Best practices:

  • Don't set refresh interval below 15 minutes
  • Use filters to reduce data volume
  • Monitor your API usage in Action1 dashboard

# Security Best Practices

# Do:

  • Use read-only API permissions (no write access needed)
  • Rotate Client Secret every 90 days
  • Store credentials securely (Weavestream uses macOS Keychain)
  • Create separate API applications per integration
  • Monitor API usage regularly

# Don't:

  • Grant write/delete permissions unless absolutely necessary
  • Share Client Secret with anyone
  • Use the same API key for multiple purposes
  • Store credentials in plain text
  • Leave inactive API applications enabled

# Additional Action1 Endpoints

Here are more endpoints you can add:

# Software Inventory

Path: /endpoints/managed/{endpoint_id}/software

Get installed software on a specific endpoint.

# Policies

Path: /policies

List all policies applied across organizations.

# Groups

Path: /groups

Get endpoint groups for organizing devices.

# Users

Path: /users

List Action1 users and their roles.

# Audit Log

Path: /audit-log

Track changes and actions in your Action1 environment.

Want to skip manual setup? Import the template from your uploaded file:

  1. In Weavestream, click "Import Source"
  2. Select the Action1.weavestream.json file
  3. Update the Client ID and Client Secret
  4. Update organization IDs in endpoint paths
  5. Sync!

What's included:

  • Organizations endpoint
  • Three example organization-specific endpoints
  • Pre-configured field mappings
  • Proper OAuth settings

# Integration with Other Tools

Action1 works great alongside:

NinjaOne/Datto/ConnectWise:

  • Cross-reference devices between RMM platforms
  • Compare endpoint counts and coverage
  • Validate monitoring across tools

Azure/Microsoft 365:

  • Match endpoints to Azure AD devices
  • Verify domain-joined status
  • Cross-reference with Intune

Backup Solutions:

  • Identify endpoints missing from backup
  • Verify backup coverage across all devices

# Summary Checklist

Before you finish, verify:

  • Action1 API application created with read permissions
  • Client ID and Client Secret saved securely
  • Action1 source added to Weavestream with OAuth
  • Organizations endpoint syncing successfully
  • At least one managed endpoints endpoint configured
  • Field mappings working (device names and statuses visible)
  • Smart filters created for offline devices, updates, etc.
  • Tested AI questions about your endpoint fleet

You're all set! Monitor your entire MSP fleet from one dashboard. 🚀


# Pro Tips for MSPs

Tip 1: Priority Clients Create separate endpoints for VIP clients with 5-minute refresh intervals for real-time monitoring.

Tip 2: Morning Health Check Create a filter: "Offline since yesterday" to catch overnight issues first thing.

Tip 3: Compliance Reporting Use AI to generate monthly reports: "Summarize endpoint health for all organizations this month"

Tip 4: Proactive Monitoring Set up filters for common issues:

  • Low disk space (<50GB)
  • Outdated OS versions
  • Devices not seen in 48+ hours
  • High pending update counts

Tip 5: Client Handoff Export organization-specific views for client reports or handoff documentation.
