Use Co-Pilot for Automators to build a new automation by describing your automation scenario with a set of instructions.

Building a new automation can require tedious human effort when hunting and selecting all the elements needed, especially when many steps are required. Leveraging Co-Pilot for Automators (Co-Pilot) can eliminate repetitive effort during development and quickly build the structure of a new automation with the necessary nodes or actions. You can then focus on custom configurations and innovation for individual needs. Simply articulate your scenario with a natural language prompt.

Instructions for the structure

The automation structure includes all the nodes or actions on the canvas to visualize the workflow of your automation and begin setting individual configurations. Co-Pilot leverages Process Reasoning Engine to interpret the intent of your instruction and generate the building blocks for your automation scenario.

Describe your automation goals when prompting in Co-Pilot for either a process or bot automation.
  • Create a process workflow by specifying your automation goal in the prompt. Co-Pilot will automatically look for the required artifacts and map them to process tasks, or create a process task placeholder that can be manually configured. Prompting for a process
  • For a bot, simply describe your scenario and reference any existing inputs you want Co-Pilot to include when rendering. Prompting for task bots

Best practices for building new automation

These capabilities are best used when including your full automation scenario in a single prompt. However, some long and complex automation requires dividing the scenario into multiple prompts. When dividing a scenario into multiple prompts, send sections of operations to include the relevant sequence and any conditions or relationships the operation should have. Then work on the finer configurations and mapping of specific nodes or actions.
