Test connections automatically

Test connections automatically

Dear Colleagues,

I have a need to periodically test if connections works fine or no (due to rotated credentials, changes on customers side and so on)

We have 80+ connections of different type.
How can we trigger test for all of them automatically ?
Expected result can vary, but in general, success criteria could be
SSH connected, accepted credentials and we are in console
RDP connected, accepted credentials and we are in
web site opened, accepted credentials and we are forwarded to next page

Hello,
This is an interesting feature for an experimental project. I will create a feature request. The tricky part will be determine for each supported protocol a way to detect that the connection is successful but in code (no visual).

Thank you, David

As a side question here - does Devolutions RDM have any API or way to interact using scripts or other automation ?
Quick example can be - can I execute bash script that will open RDM (if no opened) and ask it to connect to specified item ?
It can also work - people can just execute script and verify visually that connection is OK.
