===Script Execution Machine Requirements===
 
 
 
* The operations within this package require the PrtgAPI PowerShell module to be installed on the target machine. Details of this can be found in the [https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PrtgAPI PowerShell Gallery].
 
* If the script execution policy on the machine executing these operations is set to Restricted, then this will need to be updated to something less restrictive. See the [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.security/set-executionpolicy?view=powershell-6 PowerShell Documentation] for more information.

When creating SIS jobs for operations contained within this package, they need to be run on the target machine as a user who has the correct privileges within your environment, and will require an additional KeySafe Key to hold the account credentials to connect to PRTG.

* In the Admin console, navigate to: System > Security > KeySafe;
 
* Click on + then select <code>Username + Password</code>;
 
* Give the KeySafe Key a Title (this is the name/identifier for the target machine account as you will see it when creating an IT Automation Job, or adding an IT Automation node to a Business Process or Runbook);
 
* Optionally add a description;
 
* Populate the Username field with the domain/local account username for the account being used on the target machine;
 
* Populate the Password field with the password for the above account;
 
* Select Create Key to save.
