Another interesting feature that was introduced in 2009 is the Alerts feature in the Agent tab. Let us see how to configure an alert in SAP Intelligent Robotic Process Automation Cloud Factory.
Click on the
New Alert button to create a new Alert and the following dialog appears.
You could provide a name for the alert you are creating.
The events for which you could create alerts are grouped under 2 categories.
Category: Agents
Events:
Agent Deleted - This event is triggered when an agent is deleted from the SAP Intelligent Robotic Process Cloud Factory.
Connection to Agent Lost - This event triggered when the connection to the agent has been lost (e.g. due to network issues)
Connection closed by Agent - This event triggered when the connection has been closed by the agent.
Category: Distribution
Event:
No eligible agent - This event triggered when no agent is available for execution in a specific environment.
In the
Email addresses input field, you can enter up to 20 recipients to these emails. When an alert is created for an event, an email is sent each time when the respective event happens.
Optionally, you could also make use of the
Send Alert Until date field to specify an end date for the alert.
Once a created alert is not needed for a certain period, you could disable the alert. At the time of need, instead of creating a new alert, you could simply enable it and change the end date as required.
In order to take advantage of this feature, as a pre-requisite, you should configure a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server which is explained in this
blog. After configuration, click the
Refresh button on the Alerts section in Agent Tab.
It is also possible to download the Alert Logs by clicking on the
Download Alert Logs button at the top.
Once clicked, you will be navigated to the Data section in Monitoring Tab as shown below, where you could specify the date range and download the data in a CSV file by clicking on the
Download CSV button.
Very simple.
🙂 Isn't it?
