About IT Glue
IT Glue, a Kaseya company, is the leading provider of simple and secure IT documentation for IT professionals around the globe.

Critical information is stored securely and easily accessed by those who need it, whenever they need it.
For more on IT Glue and IT Glue features, refer to IT Glue Features.
About the integration
Kaseya has created a custom integration between Autotask and IT Glue. When a user is accessing information that resides in IT Glue, an API call is made to IT Glue that transfers ticket, device, and organization attributes to IT Glue. IT Glue will process the attributes through its configurable rules engine and retrieve matching items.
NOTA IT Glue will be returning exact text matches for the results that are returned based on the rules set up in ITG. For example, if you set up the rule to return documents for any Ticket that contains print in the Ticket Title, it won't return prints, printer, printed, printing, etc... - ONLY print. It is not case sensitive, though - it can be Print, PrInT, PRINT... and it will still return that item.
The IT Glue security level is always respected: users see only what they would see in IT Glue.
The integration is enabled at two levels:
- Administrators can connect and disconnect their organization's Autotask instance from their instance of IT Glue. Refer to Integration setup.
- Users can connect and disconnect their Autotask user account from their IT Glue user account. Refer to La pestaña Listas de comprobación de IT Glue and La pestaña IT Glue.
IT Glue integration features
Data from IT Glue can appear in two places in Autotask, in ticket insights and organization checklists.
With the integration enabled, technicians have access to IT Glue documents, flexible assets, and passwords right from an Autotask ticket. There are three ticket insights available:
- IT Glue Documents
- IT Glue Flexible Assets
- IT Glue Passwords
Autotask will pass information from the ticket to IT Glue. Your IT Glue administrator will set up rules in IT Glue that will determine what documents, flexible assets and passwords will appear on the insights. Up to five items can appear on each insight. If there are more than five items available, a link to all items will appear at the bottom of the insight. Clicking that link will open a list of up to thirty items. The insights show the titles of the items and the last updated date. Clicking the title launches a new window and opens the item in IT Glue.
IMPORTANTE Insights need to be added to a ticket category to be visible and the integration must be enabled at both the database and resource level. For information on adding the insights to a ticket category, refer to Mostrar u ocultar una vista informativa para una categoría. For more information on the insights, refer to Vistas informativas de IT Glue.
In IT Glue, checklists are associated with organizations. In Autotask, the organization-specific checklists appear on the Organization page > IT Glue Checklists tab. Users can view, complete, and un-complete IT Glue checklists in Autotask, or open and manage them in IT Glue. Refer to La pestaña Listas de comprobación de IT Glue.

In Autotask, the IT Glue integration must be enabled at the organizational level and by each individual user.
