Need suggestions for providing control to process owner to run a process

[MayankGoyal2]

Kindly suggest how can we provide control to process owner to run a process not from control room as they won't have access to environment. With some UI which can run automateC with bat file on a bot at backend ex. providing a button on Sharepoint with which they can run a process on a bot. This button will run automateC command on a bot with a .bat file. However I am not sure if its possible to do this from Sharepoint.
Kindly provide your inputs in case you have any idea to implement similar.

You may want to look into the HTTP or telnet interface, which can be used to start processes as long as the required network connectivity and user permissions are in place:

Some customers have used the above to develop their own custom Control Rooms.

One way of achieving this is to have a third party queuing tool, such as Azure queues or Amazon SQS. Your dashboard can post an item to the queue, and you can have a Blue Prism process polling that queue. Upon an item appearing in the queue, this polling process can then either call the desired process as a sub-process or trigger an AutomateC command. This also makes it very easy to add more ingestion points (i.e. buttons) in other places within your web suite.

I hope this helps!
