MTPuTTY Automation

faheemsd — Tue, 28 Feb 2023 07:22:00 GMT

Hi Team,

How to automate MTPuTTY application with the help of Blue Prism?

Do we have any VBO's available In Blue Prism to work with MTPuTTY?

Need your suggestions on the above.

Regards,

Faheem

Hi Faheem,

There's not a VBO provided out-of-the-box in Blue Prism for "MTPuTTY", and a quick search of the DX doesn't yield any results.

Perhaps other Community members have automated MTPuTTY using Blue Prism in the past and could add their feedback in this thread, but I would also encourage you to submit this idea for a new Asset to the DX Ideas Portal here.

Unfortunately, in looking for past instances of other customers mentioning "MTPuTTY" on the Community, this post is the only result. It would be up to other members to post their experiences, if any, in this thread.

While we don't explicitly state support for any specific applications such as "MTPuTTY" (with a few notable exceptions where we have had to build in specific support, i.e. the VBOs for the MS Office suite), the Blue Prism software provides methods for interacting with a variety of application types through a range of methods from in-depth interactions at a code level, to element identification, and to picture, color, and text identification methods.

So even though there isn't anything ready-made for "MTPuTTY" (like a VBO), you should be able to build business objects in the course of integrating with this application for the eventual automating of a process.

Hi Steve,

Thank you for the response and I will try to create the Object for PUTTY and use the existing spy modes.

Why don't you try to use Connector for SSH.NET - 1.0.0 in DX.

SSH.NET should be able to do most of what putty does.

The ssh-keygen program can generate RSA keys for use by the SSH protocol in a directory called .ssh in your home folder.

That must be C:\User\<yours>\.ssh\authorized_keys.
