Hi Roshini,

You can say that Runtime Resource is the software agent installed on a machine that interacts with both your Interactive Client (Software comprising of your Blue Prism development studios, control room etc.) and the Application Server. This runtime resource is what is actually responsible for running automations that you trigger either from Control Room or via a schedule directed by Application Server.

To start runtime resource on your machine you can type the below command:\

automate.exe /resourcepc /public /port <port_number> /user <user_name> <password>​


By default the port number is 8181 unless you configure it for runtime resources.

If you have SSO enabled (Single Sign On) then the command to start runtime resources is: 

automate.exe /resourcepc /public /port 8181 /sso​

Once started, you can see in your task bar, the agent software getting popped up:

With every Blue Prism setup, you automatically install the runtime resource and you need to configure  it to start automatically using the same commands which I mentioned above.

To understand more in details about some advanced settings and how they can be configured in an encrypted manner, follow the given link : Runtime Resources Help Doc
