Create a bot process configuration record in RPA Hub

Create a bot process configuration record in RPA Hub so that you can define the preliminary fields for a bot process record.

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 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.

Role required: sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_release_manager or sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_admin

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.

When you associate the bot process configuration record with a bot process record, you can't dissociate the mapping, regardless of the life-cycle stage status of the bot process.
