Premiums up 79%, coverage shrinking, questionnaires growing. Here is what the cyber insurance market is telling MSPs, and five predictions for how underwriting changes from 2023 onward.

A December 2022 proof of concept: a custom Microsoft Teams app that answers user questions with the OpenAI completions API and reads and creates PSA tickets. Architecture, token math, and lessons.

Azure AD P2 auto-remediates risky users; P1 only detects them. This Power Automate flow sweeps every customer tenant for risk detections and opens a PSA ticket the moment a new one lands.

App registrations ride on DAP pre-consent. When DAP relationships disappear in early 2023, vendor integrations like IT Glue, CIPP, and HaloPSA stop reading customer tenants until re-consented.

Two ways to bulk-migrate DAP to GDAP before the deadline: Microsoft's CSV-driven CLI gives granular control, CIPP's built-in wizard gives speed. Here is how to pick, with a demo of both.

Huntress's native PSA integrations stop at tickets and agreements. A Power Automate custom connector opens the full API: incident chaining, QuickBooks billing sync, and cross-vendor device reports.

NCE commitment terms punish missed renewal dates. This Power Automate flow sweeps Pax8 subscriptions daily and opens a PSA ticket before each renewal, so seat counts get fixed before lock-in.

The Pax8 API is free for partners and covers customers, orders, subscriptions, products, and invoices. This walkthrough connects it to Power Automate with Key Vault-backed credentials.

NCE multiplies renewal dates, splits one Microsoft SKU into multiple rate plans, and bans mid-term decrements. Here is how to structure PSA products, agreements, and alerts, as of January 2022.

Microsoft starts permanently disabling basic auth on October 1, 2022, with surprise 12-to-48-hour shutoffs in early 2022. Three multi-tenant PowerShell scripts show you what will break.

Azure Cost Management gives MSPs spend visibility, budgets, and alert-driven automation under Azure Plan. Here is how to set it up per customer and avoid the month-end invoice surprise.
