The Automation details tab

The Automation details panel is displayed when you select an automation, with the following tabs:

Details

The Details tab displays data the automation developer provided during design time in Studio. Once you select an automation in the left-side panel, the tab displays the automation name, followed by a shareable link, accessible only by users with the necessary permissions.

  • Description, optionally accompanied by the More details link, which redirects you to Automation Hub
  • Version of the automation package

  • Last Run indicator

  • Last Updated indicator

  • Any external Apps that were used in the automation, such as Outlook, Acrobat Reader, etc.

  • The Orchestrator Folder that stores the automation package

If the automation is ready for running, you can start its execution by selecting the Run button at the bottom of the tab. Otherwise, if it needs extra configurations, such as input arguments or connections, the button Configure is displayed and redirects you to the Configure tab.

Configure

The Configure tab displays data the end user should consume during the execution of the automation:

  • The Inputs section helps you configure the input argument required by the automation for a successful execution. Mandatory input fields are marked with an asterisk. If the automation was designed without input arguments, the Inputs section is absent.

    Note: If the process has input arguments, hover over the information icon to see their description.
  • The Connections section helps you configure the connections required by the automation for a successful execution. If the automation was designed without connections, the Connections section is absent.

  • The Picture in picture section allows you to turn on or off the Robot session. The setting is inherited from the project settings in Studio.

  • The Keyboard Shortcuts section allows to set custom keyboard shortcuts to manage the execution of the automation, such as pause or stop commands.

Select Save to preserve the current configuration, then select Run to start the job execution.

Jobs

The Jobs tab displays the custom messages created using the Report Status activity. These messages monitor the job execution and inform you about every action the automation takes, until it successfully completes or fails due to errors.

If the selected automation was never run in the past seven days, the Jobs tab is empty. Once you start running a process, the corresponding jobs and their statuses are displayed in this tab.

If a job execution fails, you are redirected to the Jobs tab to see the errors that occurred, regardless of the tab which was currently in focus.

Jobs from multiple running automations are divided into separate collapsible sections. To view details on a particular execution, expand the relevant job section.

Once a job completes, its execution details remain accessible on the Jobs tab for a week, then they get dismissed automatically. You can always access execution details in the History tab.

History

Displays the job history for the selected automation, along with the job state and time stamp. Clicking on an entry displays the job details, such as machine name, error message, or output values (if applicable).
