    <description>For retrieving such information from blue prism, use SQL Server VBO, and connect to BP database. I have not found any document about that.

      <title>Web Service(Blue Prism process/object) to return status of another process</title>
      <link>https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Web-Service-Blue-Prism-process-object-to-return-status-of/m-p/52777#M7597</link>
      <description>Hi

Can someone please let me know how to extract/send status of one process to another process? I want to expose a process as web service to send out status.

Also,what is the way of extracting below details which are present within "Web service Guide".&amp;nbsp;

Are there any reference documents available to fetch details of tables from Blue Prism database server.

      <description>Wouldn't it be easier to design the process to keep a current status on the items it's working on and the just get the queue info? your solutions sound more complicated than it needs to be IMO.</description>

      <description>Well, I think that exposing a process its only useful to run that process from outside, it's not like you could edit the wsdl to add some new capabilities. So you cannot have a running process&amp;nbsp;and at some moment&amp;nbsp;ask for its status from another process calling the first one via web service.
For me, takes no sense to consume locally a web service, but maybe i am wrong or a i haven't understood you need.
I would connect database, and check for process status in bpo.BPAStatus table, with read only user.
If a better solution exists, I&amp;nbsp;would like to know it too.

      <description>Of course, it would be a great idea, to have a way to recover that kind of information without having to handle with database or exposing a process.

      <description>Thanks for your response !!
The solution we're building has multiple dependencies.&amp;nbsp;
Just to give you an idea, the&amp;nbsp;Blue Prism process I'm exposing will be consumed in one of the executable where it needs to be executed by one of the user.
And the reason I need to extract the ""run status"" of this process(exposed as web service) is only because, I need to kick start one of the SQL jobs which will update respective tables on different database server.&amp;nbsp;This is not a frequent activity but this needs to be automated.</description>

      <description>There is a fundamental mistake if you are creating Blue Prism processes that are going to be kicked off direct by a user/person.&amp;nbsp; That solution potentially does not cater for multiple concurrent requests over the number of licenses you have (i.e. 20 users making a request when you only have 10 licenses).&amp;nbsp; All external calls to a Blue Prism solution should be done in a&amp;nbsp;asymmetric way - with the design looking to add work requests to a Blue Prism work queue to be actioned when a robot is available rather than sending the request direct to individual robots.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;It might be worth reaching out to experienced Blue Prism consultancy to discuss these design concepts.
Beyond that - there are telnet/http commands available for starting and monitoring sessions - search the product help for command line options.</description>
