Running attended processes from batch file with different resources

[NicholasTeo]

We have an attended Blue Prism process that we would like to be run on different resources, which can be triggered directly off a batch file. Currently we are using the following commands to run the Blue Prism listener:

"C:\\Program Files\Blue Prism Limited\Blue Prism Automate\Automate exe" /resourcepc /public /invisible /sso /sslcert xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (thumbprint of cert in pc)

My question is that the thumbprint of the cert differs across the different resources. How can we run this process across multiple resources without having to specify each unique thumbprint in the command to launch the listener?

Would it be possible to retrieve the SSL thumbprint using powershell commands before starting the process on the command line?
A Microsoft reference on how to get an SSL thumbprint can be found here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/tune_in_to_windows_intune/get-certificate-thumbprint-using-powershell

But to directly answer your question, you would either have to had use a wildcard certificate in your setup, which would allow for just a single thumbprint to be used for all Runtime Resources, or to not use TLS secured communications (not recommended).

Alternatively, you could look into starting your processes into Web Services as opposed to using the CLI, if that can satisfy your use case.
