Custom parameters in Credential Variable/Manager - A360

Hello,

 

I have a scenario where the bot will need to pull values for different attributes depending based on the bot runner user.

 

Ex: I created a Locker "Users" and created credential named - "WindowsCredentials"

Attributes are user id's and values are user passwords.

 

Is it possible to pass the bot runner user ID as Attribute and retrieve the user password from the vault?

 

I created a insecure string : {Locker:"Users", Credential:"WindowsCredentials", Attribute:"$UserID$"}

 

Automation Anywhere is not recognizing the above key value pairs.

 

Thanks in advance!

    You need to mark credential as user provided. This will allow consumers to provide their own values which will be fetched for their bot runs.

     

    You don't need to do any mapping. Same credential will fetch different value depending upon user running the bot.
