    All machines with a standalone bot are web services, so you can call a bot with an HTTPS (private) request.

    A sample
    https://<IP>:8099/scripts/<NAME_SCRIPT>
    https://172.10.20.100:8099/scripts/registerInvoice

    Door:
    - 8099 - HTTPS
    - 8098 - SOAP
    - 8096 - Broker

    Parameters
    - unlockMachine=false >> Do not unlock the machine to work, use the active session
    - version=2 >> to choose the bot version

    Hello!

    Just want to point out that we have this already implemented in one of the demos that you can find from our Asset Repository: https://assetrepo.ibm.com/collection/extend-your-data-capture-apps-with-rpa

    This is a demo / lab where we're using Datacap custom activity to call out IBM RPA during Datacap Export. Perhaps you do not need to invent a wheel again :)

    Have you tried just first https://assetrepo.ibm.com to login? You need to login with your IBM ID.

    Hi Selva, can you try this link?
    https://assetrepo.ibm.com/asset/datacap-and-wdg-integration-datacap-action-library-mqy6xxww6

    This is an action library I developed to call a IBM RPA Bot from Datacap. I believe you can use it to consume your own Bot too.

    Hi Selva,
    Maybe, you can try to reach this link.
    https://assetrepo.ibm.com/asset/datacap-and-wdg-integration-datacap-action-library-mqy6xxww6
    It contains the github link I created for Datacap action library calling IBM RPA Bot. It might help you.
