# N-able N-central

How Control Center connects to N-able N-central, what it uses, and what you need from the vendor before you connect it.

## What Control Center uses

Devices, alerts, patching, scripts and software inventory.

Listed under [RMM](https://www.resultsiq.ai/docs/tools/#rmm).

## What you need

An API-only user and its token, created in N-central.

Also have ready:

- An admin sign-in for N-able N-central, with permission to create an API key or register an app.
- A N-able N-central plan that includes API access.
- Your region or instance address, if N-able N-central uses one.

## API documentation

API docs: https://developer.n-able.com/n-central
Public docs: anyone can read them.

## Connect it with your AI

Have your AI walk you through it, from this page and the vendor’s own docs.

```
Read https://www.resultsiq.ai/docs/tools/ncentral/index.md and the vendor's API docs at https://developer.n-able.com/n-central .

I'm connecting N-able N-central to ResultsIQ Control Center for my MSP. Take me through getting the access it needs:
1. First check what we need: the right N-able N-central plan, an admin sign-in, and our region or instance address if it uses one.
2. Then tell me exactly where to go in N-able N-central and what to create, one step at a time. Wait for me before the next step.

Use only those sources, and say when they don't cover something. Never ask me for the API key or password itself: I enter those in Control Center, not in this chat.
```

## In Control Center

When your onboarding opens, you add N-able N-central in Control Center with that access, then choose which clients it covers and which API operations it can use. The key goes in Control Center’s vault, never in a chat.

Step-by-step screens for this connection are coming to this page. Until then, [How connections work](https://www.resultsiq.ai/docs/connections/) covers the rules every connection follows.

Product names belong to their owners. Listing a tool shows that Control Center can work with it, not a partnership or endorsement. Vendors change their APIs and plans, so their own docs are the final word. This page was checked against the vendor’s own site in November 2026.
