Hi all, Privileged access management (PAM) has assumed a critical role in protecting the most valuable data assets within enterprises from theft, data loss, and unauthorized access.

So, looking up this topic, it looks like this has been something that's been "in the works" for YEARS Any ETA on when we'll have variables available in resolution templates the same way they work in reply templates?

Issue with PMP since custom patch
I have been having an issue getting a problem resolved that I've had since I requested a product enhancement to PMP. Our Company had a need for an enhancement that we reached out to ME about, and they seemed super happy to develop it. When they gave me the enhancement, I installed it, but it didn't seem to work all the way. I reahced out to them, and they remoted in and did some work on it that, on the outset, seemed to get the functionality going. Unfortunately, it appears to have broken my patch

Access Control
Hi, When trying to setup access control workflows for a resource group or individual device no matter what options I pick the "Save & Activate" button does nothing, it seems to be greyed out like it's waiting for a missing option.

But no matter how many times I press save & activate nothing happens! The window doesn't

How User AD Import Works with Resource Group Access
We use AD import to import users into PMP on a schedule. When they are imported, they are given access to a resource group based on the AD group the user is in. (Example: Service Desk AD group gets access to Service Desk Resource Group) 1. If the user is removed from the AD group, the schedule runs and user is no longer in the AD group. Should the user remain in PMP and continue to have access to the Service Desk? I tested this and find that a user still has access to the group. 2. How do I remove

Users and multiple Assets
Hi When a user who has multiple assets assigned to him or her, (my scenario all the users have desk phone and monitors assigned to them because these are IT assets) creates a request the asset field not necessarily showing their PC or Laptop. For some it is just showing the desk phone. We need to edit the assets to see their PC name to support remotely. My suggestion is if possible to have an option to mark the PC or laptop as Primary and other assets secondary and map the primary to show in the
Hide Empty Template Fields on Submission
We have several workflows for incident or service templates that walk users through different questions using Form rules.

[ESM] How to move a request from one instance to another Instance
There could be numerous scenarios where there would be a need to move a request from one ESM instance to another instance. Consider two instances - SDP Helpdesk and SDP Facilities. A user unknowingly submits a request related to SDP Helpdesk in SDP Facilities, in this case, it would not make sense to create a new request in the facilities desk. Hence, we have come up with an HTML script that allows you to move a request from one instance to another instance. Steps: 1. Copy the attached move_ticket_esm.html

Alerts - Link directly to monitor
For performance alerts (such as disk, processor, memory, windows service) there should be a direct link to the affected monitor for easy analysis. Right now, the options are to: 1. Click the Server name and it takes me to the server where I have to click-through to get to the monitor. 2. Click the alert that takes me to the alert screen instead of the affected monitor. It should be much easier to click directly to the affect monitor.

Please add a Discovery Rule action to be able to associated a host with a Group. Right now you can only associate a server with a Business View.

PGSQL change default password safely
We all know that the sdpadmin user of pgsql database has the default password sdp@123 and this isn't good if this databese is supposed to be accessible outside of the server, not only localy It could be necessary in case of building some reporting using external BI tools. Or in case of external scripting So I wonder what is a safe way to change this password safely and allow SDP operating as usualy keeping the external SQL access open?
