Set automation priority for your bots

Set the automation priority of your bots to high, medium, or low so that higher-priority automations are processed first for deployment. This enables you to meet your business SLA (service-level agreement) for resource optimization.

Prerequisites

  • You must have a Bot Creator license.
  • You must be assigned the Set automation priority to high permission.

You can set the automation priority when you create and edit a bot.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Control Room as a Bot Creator user.
  2. In the private workspace, select a bot for which you want to set the priority.
    The bot is opened in edit mode.
  3. From the actions menu (vertical ellipsis), select Advanced settings.
  4. Set the Automation priority to high, medium, or low based on your requirements.
    When bots are queued for a Bot Runner user, bots with higher priority are deployed before bots with lower priority. However, if a bot with lower priority is already running, bots with higher priority are deployed after the bot with lower priority completes running.
    The default permission is set to medium.
  5. Return to the bot editor and save the bot.
