Run bot with queue
Collectively process all work items of a queue across all the Bot Runners present in one or more device pools.
Prerequisites
To run a bot with queue, ensure that you are allocated a combination of any or all of the following roles and permissions:
Feature type | Privileges |
---|---|
User roles |
|
Activity permissions |
|
Device permissions |
|
Bots permissions |
|
Workload permissions |
|
- You can run bots only on unattended Bot Runners. You cannot run bots on attended Bot Runners from the Control Room.
- The bots have to be checked in to the public folder in order for the bots to qualify to be run with queue.
- Work item sorting is done on the batch added to the queue. For example, if you add 2 batches of work items a, c, b and a, c, b to be sorted by name, the work items will be processed for queuing as a, b, c and a, b, c.
- If you use the same device pool for inserting and processing work items for the same queue, you will see duplicate entries in the In-progress activity and Historical page. To resolve this issue, use one device pool to insert work items and a different device pool to process work items in a queue.
Procedure
Use the Run a bot with queue option from any of the following pages:
