How does it handle OData filtering?

It includes a complete reference for OData operators such as contains, startswith, and logical operators like and/or, including URL encoding best practices.

Does this skill support ConnectWise Automate 2FA?

Yes, the skill provides specific request patterns for both standard Integrator credentials and User-based authentication requiring 2-Factor Authentication codes.

What is the recommended approach for API rate limits?

The skill implements a retry-with-backoff strategy that monitors X-RateLimit headers and respects the Retry-After duration provided by the Automate server.

How is pagination handled for large datasets?

It uses an efficient offset-based pagination pattern that reads X-Total-Pages from response headers to loop through results reliably.

API Development

Standardizes ConnectWise Automate REST API integrations with optimized patterns for authentication, OData filtering, and efficient pagination.

This skill provides a comprehensive implementation framework for the ConnectWise Automate REST API v1, essential for MSPs building custom automations or integrations. It covers critical areas including secure token management for both integrator and user-context sessions, complex data querying using OData syntax, and robust handling of server-side rate limits. By following these patterns, developers can ensure their Claude-generated code handles offset-based pagination correctly and implements reliable error recovery with exponential backoff, resulting in more stable and performant RMM integrations.

Key Features

01Automated offset-based pagination with header-based tracking
