When you install and configure the Pega Robotic Automation Importer component, and then configure a data page with Robotic Desktop Automation as the source, you are prompted with a list of the automations that are available in your application. This functionality boosts productivity and simplifies configuration, because you do not have to manually enter the names of automations.

Before you begin

Download the Importer component from Pega Marketplace.
