About this task

When a new package or a new package version is released in the Cloud, the package version will automatically get installed on Control Room. This automatic installation of a new package version cannot be turned off by cloud users and can only control the status of the new package version after it is installed.

Procedure

Navigate to Administration > Settings > Packages.
Edit the Packages option. The page opens in edit mode.
Enable the settings to set the status of the new package.
- Enable and set as default: Select this option to automatically set the new version of a package as the default version.
- Enable: Uploads and enables the package, but the package is not set as the default package. Bot Creators have to specifically select non-default packages to use them for creating bots.
- Disable: Choose this option to automatically disable the new version of a package.
Save the settings.

To help maintain reliable package updates and manage package storage:

Maintain reliable connectivity: Ensure that the required connectivity to the Automation Anywhere package repository endpoints remains stable and uninterrupted. Connectivity interruptions during package downloads can result in incomplete downloads or temporary files remaining on the system.
Monitor available storage: Proactively monitor disk usage for package repository storage and configure alerts when utilization reaches approximately 70–80% of capacity.
Remove unused package versions: Periodically remove package versions that are no longer required or referenced by bots.
Navigate to Administration > Packages > Delete unused versions to reclaim storage used by older package versions.
