Run Automation Profiles on-demand on specific agents (like scripts)
It would be great to have the option to run an automation profile on a specific agent computer on demand, the way we can scripts. I know we can setup automation profiles, assign customers or agents, then run them on everything they are assigned to. That works fine most of the time. Having the option to not just run scripts on demand for specific agents, but also automation profiles the same way would save us a lot of support time. Possibly even running an automation profile on an alert, the way we can assign scripts now.

This is a great idea. Will this be implemented?

Have the option to run a Patch Management and IT Automation profile on an individual device on the devices page. The same way you run a script but have the option to run an Automation profile.

This is a very handy idea. More than handy. For us Managed Workplace users, it is essential. We can automate a process/automation and schedule it, or "run it now". It can be as simple as running a profile to clean up a computer and create a System restore point and maybe some other quick items that are common, all in one quick click from the Agents page. Similar to running scripts, but I have that some of the scripts do not always work. The profiles should, as the options are supported by Atera. Just a simple button beside the list of profiles to say "Run Now".
I also like Joe's idea of have an automation script running after an alert.
Thanks for listening.
