Publish the learning instance

Check-in the process associated with the learning instance. Then, build a bot that uploads documents from a source folder to the learning instance and check it in to the public repository. Finally, deploy the process and bots to unattended Bot Runner devices to begin processing documents in real time.

Prerequisites

For Bot Runner devices with a Windows 2012 server-based operating system:

Download and install the Windows Essential Media Pack from Microsoft.
Install the Media Foundation feature from the Windows Server Manager.

Procedure

Publish the process.
1. Navigate to Automation > Private tab > Bots > Document Workspace processes and select the folder with the same name as the learning instance.
2. Mouse over the vertical ellipses to the right of the process to open the actions menu and click Check in process.
  The Check in Process window opens with the bots and form auto-selected to also be checked in.
3. In the Check in Process window, add your comment and click Check in.
  The process appears in the same folder structure in the public workspace.
