Control-M for UiPath

UiPath is a robotic process automation (RPA) software, which enables you to create bots that observe human actions in the digital workplace, identify repetitive rules-based tasks, and automate these tasks.

Control-M for UiPath enables you to do the following:

• Execute UiPath processes on specific UiPath folders.

• Manage UiPath credentials in a secure connection profile.

• Connect to any UiPath endpoint.

• Introduce all Control-M capabilities to Control-M for UiPath, including advanced scheduling criteria, complex dependencies, Resource Pools, Lock Resources, and variables.

• Integrate UiPath jobs with other Control-M jobs into a single scheduling environment.

• Monitor the status, results, and output of UiPath jobs.

• Attach an SLA job to the UiPath jobs.

• Run 50 UiPath jobs simultaneously per Agent.
