## **Configuring Zscaler (VPN) assisted troubleshooting pack** <a href="#documentation-configurationguide" id="documentation-configurationguide"></a>

{% hint style="info" %}
Adapt these suggested configuration steps to edit and customize content according to your organizational needs.
{% endhint %}

Follow these steps to install and configure content:

* Before configuration - Install library pack content from [Nexthink Library](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/nexthink-library)
* [Step 1 - Configure remote action(s)](#step-1-configure-remote-actions)
* [Step 2 - Configure workflow thinklet credentials](#configurationguide-batteryreplacementscheduling-step2-configureitsmapiconnectorcredentials)

### **Step 1 - Configure remote actions**

1. From the main menu, navigate to the **Remote Actions** > [Manage remote action ](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/remote-actions/managing-remote-actions)page.
2. Review and edit your remote actions.

Nexthink recommends the following configurations for these remote actions:

| Name                         | Trigger schedule  | Parameters to edit |
| ---------------------------- | ----------------- | ------------------ |
| **Get Zscaler status**       | Trigger: Workflow | None               |
| **Reset Zscaler connection** | Trigger: Workflow | None               |

### Step 2 - Configure workflow thinklet credentials <a href="#configurationguide-batteryreplacementscheduling-step2-configureitsmapiconnectorcredentials" id="configurationguide-batteryreplacementscheduling-step2-configureitsmapiconnectorcredentials"></a>

Configuring the ServiceNow integration is crucial for enabling API calls. Before managing the workflow, ensure that the ServiceNow [connector credentials](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/configuring_nexthink/bringing-data-into-your-nexthink-instance/integrating-nexthink-with-third-party-tools/outbound-connectors/connector-credentials) are properly set up.

Within the workflow, populate each **Service/API** thinklet dropdown field with the appropriate C**redentials**. When a workflow is installed or copied from the Library, these fields will be blank, as credentials are specific to each local environment and are not included in the Library setup.
