CoE Manager - Integrate with Cloud Control Room
You can integrate CoE Manager with the Cloud Control Room to monitor your automations and calculate the savings achieved. You can link up to three Control Room instances with one instance of CoE Manager.
Procedure
-
In the Control Room, perform the following steps:
- Create a custom role with View everyone's activity and Generate API-Key permissions.
- Create a user and assign the custom role created above.
-
Generate API Key for the user.
For details about generating API key, see Create API key generation role.
-
In the CoE Manager instance, perform the following steps:
- Navigate to Admin - Tech tab.
- Click the placeholder URL in the Automation Anywhere URL column.
- Click the actions menu (vertical ellipsis) at the top and select Rename provide a name for your integration.
-
Edit the Integration Settings and
provide the following details:
- In the Hosting Type dropdown, select Cloud.
- In the ROI Sync Mechanism dropdown, select one of
the following:
- Pull: CoE Manager automatically pulls the automation data periodically from the Cloud Control Room for ROI calculation.
- Push: Add a sync bot to your automation
that will push the data to bot immediately
after the automation execution. Use one of the following methods
for configuring the sync bot.
- Bot Store: Download the sync bot from the Bot Store.
- Build sync bot: Build your own sync bot using the actions (Start Pipeline Accelerator Session, Get Metrics Data, Update Metrics Data, End Session) in the Pipeline Accelerator package.
- Click Save.
-
Edit the Credentials field and provide the following
details:
- Enter the URL in the Automation Anywhere URL field.
- Enter the username in the Automation Anywhere Username field.
- Enter the API key in the Automation Anywhere API Key field.
- Click Save.
The Enabled column automatically changes to Yes when you save the URL, username, and API key.
-
Click Verify Credential in the
Verify Cloud CR Credentials field.
The status of your authentication is displayed in the authentication results. If authentication fails, provide correct credentials and try again.
Note: The enabled integration ensures that all the bot execution and transactional data is pushed from the Control Room to the CoE Manager every four hours. Each push includes the current day's data plus the previous day's data in full. This overlap of data is done to ensure there are no data gaps in case of API call failures. All duplicate data is automatically corrected in the CoE Manager before publishing them on the dashboards.
