Hello,

I'd like to provide our client with the ability to view and execute bots from a public interface. Could you advise on the appropriate user type to create, and which roles or licenses should be assigned to ensure they are restricted to only viewing and running bots? Alternatively, is there another method to achieve this?

Hi ​@LAHCEN AGLAGAL ,

 

Hope your Client will be the one having the Admin access on the Control Room. If so, nothing else is needed as they will be able to see the Bots in the Public repo with read access and can trigger the Bots as well from there.

The IT department holds the admin access. However, I need to create a separate user with specific permissions for the business users/stakeholders at the company. We can't grant them admin privileges because they lack an IT profile, and this could lead to issues

​@LAHCEN AGLAGAL Another possibility is to have a custom web interface that you build that can execute bots via our API. This way you don't have to give them ANY permissions on the control room -- they just need access to your custom web interface. We use something similar internally for our video productions to generate subtitles. It goes through a custom web interface and executes a bot on the bot runner that looks at the video we uploaded and creates subtitles.

Then create a custom role with only View & Run Bots permission and assign it to the User account.

That's a great idea, and I appreciate the suggestion! However, deploying another custom web solution isn't recommended in our current situation due to the additional development and maintenance overhead it would entail
