CoE Manager - Integrate with On-Premises Control Room

You can integrate the CoE Manager with the On-Premises Control Room to monitor your automations and calculate the savings achieved. You can connect up to three Control Room instances with one instance of CoE Manager.

To link an On-Premises Control Room to the CoE Manager, follow the steps mentioned below.

Procedure

  • In the Control Room, perform the following steps:
    1. Create a custom role with View everyone's activity and Generate API-Key permissions.
    2. Create a user and assign the custom role created above.
    3. Generate an API Key for the user.
  • In the CoE Manager, perform the following steps:
    1. Navigate to the Admin - Tech tab.
      You must have RPA admin or RPA tech-admin role to access the Admin - Tech tab.
    2. Click the placeholder URL in the Automation Anywhere URL column.
    3. Click Edit in the Hosting Type field and select On-Prem.
    4. Click Edit in the Automation Anywhere URL field and enter the Control Room URL.
    5. Using the link in the Bot Store Link field, navigate to the Bot Store and download the bot.
    6. Follow the instructions in the ReadMe file to set up the bot.
    Important: For an On-Premises Control Room, a bot deployment is required to push the data from Control Room to the CoE Manager. You must have a valid license such as a Bot Creator, Bot Runner, or a Citizen Developer to run the bot. To run this bot, you must also add the CoE Manager URL to trusted list. For more details on adding the URL to trusted list, see Add service URLs to trusted list for On-Premises.
    Recommendation: Schedule your bot that pushes data to the CoE Manager to run at least once a day to avoid data gaps in the CoE Manager dashboards. Each data push will include the current day's data up to the current time 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 or network issues. All duplicate data is automatically corrected in the CoE Manager before publishing them on the dashboard.
