BeyondTrust credential retrieval use cases
- Updated: 2025/03/17
For Bot auto-login use case, Automation 360 retrieves credentials from BeyondTrust Password Safe.
Retrieve auto-login credentials
Auto-login credentials are used to authenticate to an Automation 360 Bot Agent device and start an active Windows Server session. This requires an active Windows Server session to function. Auto-login occurs before automations are launched from a remote Bot Agent device.
To enable auto-login, each automation runtime user must be mapped to a target device. This requires mapping of the Control Room username with the secret names so that during runtime, the Bot Runner user can retrieve the device credentials from the BeyondTrust Password Safe.
To map the Control Room username with the secret names:
- Navigate to .
- Click Edit and select Manage custom secrets mappings.
- Download the Custom Secrets Name Mapping Template.csv
template and add the following entries in the format specified:
- Username
- System name
- Account name
- Click Import .csv and browse to select the
Custom Secrets Name Mapping Template.csv template file to
map the Control Room usernames with the secret names.
- Click Import and save. The custom secrets mapping table is
populated with the updated entries.
After mapping the Control Room usernames with secret names, you can enable the device auto login settings to retrieve auto-login credentials from the BeyondTrust Password Safe, using the following procedure:
- Log in to the Automation 360 Control Room with permission.
- From the Control Room, navigate to .
- Click Edit.
- Click Enabled to retrieve the auto-login credentials from
that external key vault.
- Click Save changes to save the configuration.
