Orchestrator SaaS
What’s new?
Maintain RDP Session Active Automatically
Now, there is no need to take any actions to execute bots in closed, blocked, or minimized RDP windows. When you want to run a published workflow on a remote machine, you do not need to maintain the active session manually anymore.
As of this release, from Orchestrator you can set up credentials to the Windows account where the Bot Runner is installed and your session will become active automatically each time a workflow is about to start.
Note
Currently, this feature is at the beta stage and is enabled by defult to all our cliens. However, within 2 months, this feature will be enabled only for Silver and Gold plans.
- Display workflow console logs. This feature allows you to display the content of logs, created by Console log activity, in the Orchestrator.Console logs can reflect the key business parameters of the workflow or the current state of the workflow execution so you can quickly check the performance of the bot and identify unexpected scenarios during execution.
