Custom secrets mapping

When using Automation Anywhere with the external key vaults, such as HashiCorp, Azure, CyberArk and AWS, the existing work flow enforces a specific object name format: autologin_<bot-runner_username>, which corresponds to the Control Room username format.

The custom object naming convention now allows users to provide their own object naming format. The user can then prepare a mapping of the Control Room username with the secret names. During bot run, the system will look up for the secrets name for the example, botrunner user, and then retrieve the same from the credential vault with this secret name. To map the Control Room usernames with the secrets names, you must import a .CSV file which contains the username, secrets names mapping entries into the Control Room, rather than following the Automation Anywhere secrets naming convention which is specified in the 외부 키 저장소 명명 규칙 section.

주: Ensure you have the view and manage settings permission to perform this procedure.
