Control Room Administration - CUSTOM ROLE SUMMARY

 

The following summarizes custom roles that are based on Solution Patterns.  A role design like this can be used to define the specific role settings required to support different patterns.

If the Control Room folder structure is defined by business functions/areas, these roles could also be defined at a Business Unit/Function level as well - ex. CUSTOM_RUN_UNATTENDED_SCHEDULE_FINANCE for users managing scheduled automations in Finance, etc.

NOTE: The ‘CUSTOM’ prefix is simply to differentate these roles from the ‘standard/system’ roles available out-of-the-box as part of the Platform.

CUSTOM_RUN_UNATTENDED_ONDEMAND: Run Automations on-demand from Control Room

 

 

Some users need access to login to the Control Room and run ‘unattended’ automations on a set of licenses (Run-As Users) and Devices.

RUN_UNATTENDED_ONDEMAND_BUSUNITA, RUN_UNATTENDED_ONDEMAND_BUSUNITB, RUN_UNATTENDED_ONDEMAND_BUSUNITC

 

 

Features

Run-As

Bots

  • (1) or more “Bot Runners” - aka Run-As Users with Unattended Runner licenses

  • Folders with specific automations

    • Folders with reusable Automations, called/dependencies of use case automations
