Procedure

  1. Complete the prerequisites for installation:
  2. Prepare to install Control Room on Google Cloud Platform
    Ensure that you complete the required steps to prepare the Google Cloud Platform instances for installing the Control Room.
  3. Perform custom installation of Control Room on Google Cloud Platform
    Install and apply the customized configuration required for the Control Room cluster on Google Cloud Platform after completing initial preparations.
  4. Configure Google Cloud Platform settings after installation
    After installing the Control Room, configure the required settings on Google Cloud Platform.
  5. Complete the Control Room configuration and validation.
    1. Complete Control Room post-installation configuration
      After installing the Control Room, complete the configuration settings to ensure timely Automation Anywhere communications are specified and confirm Automation Anywhere services are running.
    2. Post-installation user management
      After completing the post-installation tasks, validate the setup by logging in to the Control Room and installing a license. First time access to the Control Room walks you through the configuration for your authentication method.
  6. Manage your users
    As a Cloud user with administrator permissions, you can create, view, edit, delete, and enable or disable a user. Creating users steps vary depending on whether the user is a non-Active Directory, Active Directory, or single sign-on (SSO) user from an IdP server.
