Troubleshooting W365 CPC Integration and Visibility Issues

Posted on

A group of ControlUp members discuss issues with the integration between W365 CPC and HDX.

The group mentions that this may be due to the VDA configured on the device. There is also mention of potential confusion around which agent to use for the CPC Desktop, and a suggestion to pull a query to track the number of CPCs with a VDA installed and see what is reported.

Gathering logs through ControlUp Academy and PowerShell scripts

Posted on

A discussion took place about using ControlUp Academy to gather logs via PowerShell scripts. Hosting a CDN in Azure was suggested as a solution. However, another user suggested creating a function instead that would prompt for the log location and then download it as a .txt or .log file. This would be helpful in situations where users don't have time to provide logs or are VIPs. The idea was also brought up to consolidate all log-related ideas into one to put pressure on product management. There was also a question about whether input can be prompted in EdgeDX or ControlUp for Desktops.

Improving Survey Sentiment Features in ControlUp

Posted on

A user inquired about adding an action button to the Survey Sentiment feature in ControlUp to run remediation scripts. This is not currently possible, but may be part of the company's roadmap.

The user also asked if there are any plans for more data insights on root cause level analysis in UCC feature and mentioned that the device name column shows no data. The team responded that they are planning to expose the Sentiment Results API for third party tool use and will try to enable this capability within the product in the future.
