Create a bot using the demo package to verify the actions that were created.

Prerequisites

Here are the minimum prerequisites for building this demo bot:
  • Access to a Control Room
  • User credentials with AAE_Basic permission
  • Your local host (workstation) is a registered device in the Control Room
  • Ensure that the demo package A2019DemoPackageFirstnameLastname is available in the Control Room
