Manually update the Bot agent
The Bot agent, a lightweight application that enables you to run bots on your device, requires an update when a new version becomes available.
Prerequisites
- To install the Bot agent, the Windows installer policy must be enabled for the user device.
- The read, write, and execute permissions must be enabled for the Bot agent folders on the user device.
The Bot agent version available for download is the latest and compatible with the Control Room version that is used.
Note: You can update to the latest Bot agent version to use the new features available in the
latest Automation 360 release. However, updating your Bot agent to the latest version is optional if you want
to run your existing bots.
Procedure
Note: You can also
update a single device with row-level actions.
