2.1 Information needed and why we need it

The MSPbots app requires permission to sync user information like managers, positions, and avatar pictures, including any change in user data from AAD in the future. The sync happens in the background and updates user information regularly. This eliminates the need for manually syncing data whenever employees get on board or go offboard.

  • User name and email address - Used to identify users and map their email addresses with the PSA user accounts.
  • Managers' info - Used by the bots to alert the managers every time users are not in compliance with the company's policies or procedures.
