Uploading custom templates

[syndeotech]

Stumbled upon all the custom templates available here, when i attempted to upload one, was met with a "Failed - import files from previous versions can not be imported" error. Any work around to this?

Hi syndeotech,

Unfortunately I don't work for an MSP any more and don't have an N-Central installation, so I can no longer help maintain the templates.

Somebody who has upgraded their existing N-Central server may be able to re-export them and commit the new template files.

Hi syndeotech,

Were there any particular services you were after? I don't believe we have the entire range imported here. I might try exporting one, and diffing with the older XML. There may be a simple XSLT sheet to update to the newer schema.

I'm not aware of any way to do this automatically. Previously, we've been told be N-able the service needs to be exported to generate the new XML which is unhelpful if you don't already have the service..

EDIT: on the NRC, there's an old post stating you can change the service templates version, and the import should work:

This was back in 2012 though, so if the schema has changed more work may be required.

James,

How do I go about committing code to this repository? I have updated the code to work with ImageManager 7.0.2 and would like to get it up here. I have Visual Studio 2015, but I'm unfamiliar with GitHub...

Hi Clint,

Git has a steep initial learning curve, particularly if you're new to version control. However, you don't need to understand too much to do most things.
