  • 1.  How unlock machine command works.

    Posted Tue May 11, 2021 04:16 AM
    I have seen on IBM RPA docs that there is a possibility to unlock the pc where the scheduled robots are but i cant find where that command is or how it works. I would like to get some information so i can include that command on my robots.

    Hi Magali!

    When scheduling bots you can indeed mark the schedule to unlock the computer if needed. For this you would need to define a credential for your computer under Confogurations --> Computers that you intend using to run your scheduled bot.

    When the time comes, the agent / scheduler will unlock the computer automatically and run the script you have defined for your schedule. So, you do need any unlock command to your script.

    Hope this clarifies :)
