Components

Automation Co-Pilot for Business Users on the web interface includes the following components:

Bots
The bots automate specific, repetitive, rule-based tasks.
Form
The form enables humans to invoke and interact with the bots through the customizable web interface.
Process
The process connects the bots and the forms together. The process contains the logic for triggering the bots and the forms and coordinating the flow of data between them.
Request
The request is an instance of a process. If the process defines a template of how bots and forms interact, a request is a specific instance of that template.
Task
Tasks are the steps that must be performed within a process. Processes can have two types of tasks:
  • Bot task: A task that is performed by a bot.
  • Human task: A task that is performed by a human; a human task is a form.
