Hi Crystal_Painter!

Thanks for sending this request!

This Bot that you have described is already existing as a custom bot for one of our ConnectWise VIP Clients. We would just need to migrate this bot to an AutoTask version and will inform you as soon as this is done.

We are still looking for more VIP clients that uses AutoTask. Let us know if you are interested.
