      1. Connect the Integration
      2. Map Accounts and Services

      Connect the Integration

      Notes:

      • If you're using a Self-Hosted instance of Comet Backup, please make sure you're on version 22.9.6 or newer.
      • Comet Backup syncs accounts based on the Username field. To ensure all accounts are properly mapped, it's recommended to use a unique Username for each account.
      1. Login to Reconcile and navigate to the Integrations tab.
      2. Select the Comet Backup Integration card, and click Connect.
      3. Choose what you want to integrate, and select Continue.

      4. Copy the Gradient API Key:

        • Each integration is assigned a unique API Key.
        • Save this key in a secure location—it will only be available once.
      5. Login to Comet Backup and navigate to Settings > Integrations > PSA Services
      6. Select Gradient MSP, paste your Gradient API Token and Save. 
      7. Select Sync Now 

      For Alerts users, no additional action is required. Alerts will automatically flow from Comet to your selected PSA board.

      Alerts will be triggered for failed jobs of any type (backup, restore, repair, cleanup, etc.).

      Map Accounts and Services

      Note: If you need further details on account and service mapping, click here.

      1. Map Accounts and Services

        • When setting up the integration for the first time, accounts are automatically matched if there's an exact name match between your vendor and PSA.
        • For accounts not automatically matched:
          • Use the filter button beside the account names on the right, or
          • Use the search bar on the left to find PSA accounts.
        • Drag and drop the PSA accounts from the left to match them with vendor accounts on the right.

      2. Proceed to Service Mapping

        • Once accounts are mapped, click "Next" to access the Service Mapping step.
        • Match services or products from your PSA, displayed on the left, with the corresponding vendor services or SKUs on the right. For ConnectWise PSA users, you can also search by Product ID.
        • Ensure at least one account and one service mapping is completed to finish the configuration.
        • After mapping the services, click "Next".

      3. Finalize Configuration

        • Review your mappings and click "Finish" to complete the setup.
        • This will start a sync. The "Sync Status" indicator at the top-right will start spinning, showing that a sync is in progress.
        • Once the sync is complete, the "Refresh" button will light up pink, indicating the sync is complete. Click that button to see the vendor data filled out.
        • Use the filter or sort options to jump to the connected services and start reviewing and reconciling!
