Creating an RPA Model
The RPA Creator generates the robotic process in Worksoft Certify based on the Capture file and RPA assets that the Discovery user provided in Worksoft RPA Orchestrator. After the Certify process is tested, the RPA Creator exports it to the RPA Orchestrator, where it is encrypted and saved to the Certify database as an RPA Model.
The following tasks must be completed:
- Review the Capture file and documents.
- Create or verify that a Certify project has the RPA Project option enabled.
- Import into Certify the Capture file from RPA Orchestrator.
- Generate and test the Certify process.
- Export the Certify process into RPA Orchestrator.
To review the Capture file and documents:
-
From the Worksoft RPA Orchestrator menu, select Project List.
The RPA Project List page opens.
-
Click the Edit button next to the project waiting for your action.
The Create RPA Model page opens.
- Click the Download button next to the Capture name and review the file.
- Review any provided RPA assets.
-
If you determine that more information is needed from the user, click Send back to Discovery and enter instructions for missing information.
If you have enough information, you are ready to sign in to Worksoft Certify to create an RPA Model.
