Select a bot process configuration record to associate it with a bot process. This action creates a bot process record in RPA Hub.

Before you begin

Create a package. For more information, see Create a package to assign to a bot process.

Create a robot. For more information, see Creating a robot in RPA Hub.

Configure the related system property to view the activity stream. For more information, see Display an activity stream for bot processes and robots in RPA Hub.

Before you can access a bot process, ensure that the RPA business user (sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_business_user), RPA developer (sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_developer), or the RPA support user (sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_support_user) are in the Managed by Group list.

About this task

A bot process is a predefined sequence of actions that a robot follows to accomplish a specific task or achieve a particular goal.

A bot process configuration record contains the bot process settings. The bot process configuration record is mapped to a bot process record. It is a one to one mapping. You can only select one bot process record to associate with a bot process configuration record. You can't edit a bot process configuration record that is associated with a bot process.

When you retire a bot process record, you can't associate the related bot process configuration record to other bot processes.

You can create a bot process configuration record in two ways. The first way is when you create and save a bot process configuration record.

The second way is when you move an update set from a lower environment to a higher environment, an orphan bot process configuration record is created. After you select the Assign Configuration button and its record, the bot process record that is associated to the bot process configuration is created.

For more information about migrating your metadata from a lower environment to a higher environment, see Migrating your data from a lower environment to a higher environment in RPA Hub.
