Connect NinjaOne

NinjaOne uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials — register a client in the Ninja admin panel, grant it the right scopes, and paste two values into Vectis.

What you'll need

  • Client ID + Client secret — both issued when you create an API client
  • Region — one of us, eu, ca, oc. Must match where your NinjaOne tenant lives.

1. Create the API client

  1. In NinjaOne, go to Administration → Apps → API → Client App IDs.
  2. Click Add. Name it “Vectis”.
  3. Application platform: API Services (machine-to-machine).
  4. Scopes: enable monitoring (read alerts/devices) and management (acknowledge/resolve alerts). Skip control unless you plan to add remote actions later.
  5. Redirect URIs: leave empty (client-credentials flow doesn’t need them).
  6. Allowed Grant Types: enable client_credentials.
  7. Save. Copy the Client ID and Client secret — the secret is shown only once.
If you miss the secret, delete the client and recreate — there’s no way to reveal it after the dialog closes.

2. Pick the right region

Your NinjaOne login URL tells you the region:

  • app.ninjarmm.com or us.ninjarmm.comus
  • eu.ninjarmm.comeu
  • ca.ninjarmm.comca
  • oc.ninjarmm.comoc

3. Paste credentials into Vectis

  1. Go to Admin → Integrations and click Configure on NinjaOne.
  2. Paste Client ID, Client secret, and pick your Region.
  3. Click Test. You should see “Connected to NinjaOne” with your region.
  4. Click Save, then Sync now.

4. Match organizations to your PSA customers

After the first sync, Vectis shows a list of NinjaOne organizations and tries to fuzzy-match each to one of your ConnectWise/PSA customers by name. Anything it can’t auto-match appears as unlinked — drop down and pick the right customer, or mark “Keep separate” for non-MSP-customer orgs (internal, demo, etc.).

Matching is required for the account hub to show devices + alerts next to tickets for the same customer. Until a Ninja org is linked to a PSA customer, its devices appear only in the RMM section.

Common errors

401 Unauthorized — Client ID or Client secret is wrong. Re-copy from the NinjaOne admin panel. If the secret was rotated there, update here too.

403 Forbidden — The client lacks required scopes. Go back to the API client in NinjaOne and enable monitoring and management.

404 Not Found — Region is wrong. The API endpoint is region-specific; a US-region client won’t resolve from the EU endpoint.

Connection timed out — Check firewall/VPN — NinjaOne’s API IPs need to be reachable from wherever Vectis is running.
