Synchronizing usage

The MSP wants to see Acronis usage in PSA.

Preconditions

• MSP has enabled the CyberApp.

• MSP has mapped at least 1 Acronis offering item to the vendor’s PSA system SKU of the product that is sold on a PAYG basis.

Basic flow

1. The CyberApp should perform automatic usage sync over a specific interval of time (recommended: 24 hours) using the GET /tenants/{tenant_id}/usages endpoint.

Note

It should be also possible to trigger the usage sync manually.

2. During the sync, if PSA product is sold:

   • On a PAYG basis

     Update PSA product quantity with the usage of the mapped offering item.
   • On a PREPAID basis

     Skip the update.

Post conditions

• Contracts/agreements are updated in vendor’s PSA system.

API endpoints

Note
