πŸ“– About This Skill

name: n-central-admin description: Operate N-able N-central safely and efficiently through its web UI. Use when handling device administration, filters, rules, scheduled tasks, automation policies, monitoring associations, remote tools, and tenant/customer/site scoped changes in N-central.

N-central Admin

Use this skill to run reliable browser-driven N-central operations.

Operating model

Follow this sequence for almost every change: 1. Confirm scope (SO / Customer / Site). 2. Confirm targeting (filter preview or explicit devices). 3. Apply change (rule/task/template/action). 4. Validate on a small sample of devices. 5. Expand scope only after validation.

Read references only as needed

  • Read references/ui-navigation-and-operating-model.md for hierarchy, module navigation, and change-control flow.
  • Read references/filters-and-rules.md for filter expression logic, rule behavior, trigger events, and troubleshooting.
  • Read references/automation-policies-and-tasks.md for Automation Manager behavior, scheduled task execution, and offline/timing caveats.
  • Read references/device-details-tabs-and-tools.md for per-device tabs, quick actions, and tool availability expectations.
  • Read references/browser-operator-playbooks.md for browser execution playbooks and stability patterns.

    • Guardrails

  • Prefer the narrowest scope that solves the task.
  • Clone and specialize shared objects instead of risky in-place edits.
  • Name filters/rules/tasks with explicit scope and intent.
  • Confirm target count before save and after save.
  • Use pilot-first rollout for broad-impact changes.
  • Verify outcome using Monitoring, Associations, and Audit Trail.

    • Quick dispatch

  • If you need left-nav click paths, use references/ui-navigation-and-operating-model.md#left-navigation-path-map-common-admin-tasks.
  • If rule behavior is wrong, use references/filters-and-rules.md#rule-not-firing-checklist.
  • If scheduled execution behavior is wrong, use references/automation-policies-and-tasks.md#offline-and-timing-behavior.
  • If target selector arrows are confusing, use references/automation-policies-and-tasks.md#dual-list-selector-buttons-targeting-and-similar-fields.
  • If an expected tool is missing on a device, use references/device-details-tabs-and-tools.md#why-actions-may-be-unavailable.
  • If browser automation gets flaky, use references/browser-operator-playbooks.md#ui-stability-patterns.
