Hudu

Triage that reads your documentation

DaemonLayer grounds every triage in your Hudu articles and assets, and keeps your knowledge base current: when a technician solves something differently, the article update is drafted for approval.

Hudu Capabilities

Your documentation is used twice: to make triage smarter when a ticket arrives, and to improve itself when the ticket is resolved. Your KB gets better every time a technician solves something differently.

Triage Enrichment

Real procedures and device details, not generic knowledge

When a ticket arrives, DaemonLayer searches the matched client's Hudu company. Assets are found by device name, serial, IP address or keywords from the ticket, including custom fields. KB articles and procedures are found by topic. Triage and the first response are grounded in what you've actually documented.

  • Nothing is written to Hudu during enrichment
  • If Hudu is unreachable, enrichment is skipped and the ticket carries on
  • Also used by RMM Handoff: suggested first checks cite your articles

KB Drift Review

A knowledge base that keeps itself current, with your approval

When a ticket is resolved, DaemonLayer compares what the technician actually did with the KB articles used during triage. If an article has drifted, it drafts a minimal, surgical edit: the rest of the article stays word for word, and the edit only uses facts from the resolution notes or the existing article.

  • Drafts land on the KB Drafts page with a side-by-side diff and a 1–2 sentence summary
  • A technician approves or rejects; only approval publishes to Hudu
  • If someone edited the live article since, the draft is marked Superseded

Remove the stale VPN profile under Network settings, then re-import the profile from the client's Hudu asset. Reinstalling the client is not needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this integration

What does DaemonLayer read from Hudu?

When a ticket arrives, DaemonLayer searches the matched client's Hudu company for assets (by device name, serial, IP address or ticket keywords, including custom fields) and for KB articles and procedures by topic. The results ground triage and the first response in your documented procedures instead of generic knowledge.

Will DaemonLayer change our KB articles automatically?

No. KB Drift Review drafts a suggested edit and puts it on the KB Drafts page with a side-by-side diff. A technician approves or rejects it. Nothing is ever published to Hudu without explicit technician approval.

What permissions does the Hudu API key need?

Create the key with Full Access scope, and leave View Passwords, Delete Data and Export Data all unchecked. DaemonLayer never needs them, and keeping them off limits the blast radius if the key is ever compromised.

Can we use Hudu for triage only?

Yes. Choose Read only and DaemonLayer only searches articles and assets for triage context. KB Drift Review and the KB Drafts page are disabled. You can switch to Read & write at any time without re-entering the API key.

What happens if Hudu is unreachable?

Enrichment is skipped silently and the ticket continues through triage without documentation context. Hudu being down never blocks a ticket.

Do we need one Hudu connection per client?

No. One Hudu connection covers all your clients. You match each DaemonLayer client to its Hudu company on the Clients page; clients without a match are skipped cleanly.
