Use Password Store

The following are general steps for using Password Store with the Lookup Password step.

  1. On the selected Management Console, create Password entries on the Passwords pane of the Repository > Password Store tab.
  2. On the Management Consoles tab of the Design Studio Settings window, specify the Management Console to store passwords and select Use as Password Store.
  3. Insert the Lookup Password step in your robot and note the Password Access token that Design Studio provides on this step. Provide the token to the Management Console administrator.
  4. The administrator creates a new Password Access entry on the Password Access pane of the Repository > Password Store tab using the token from the Lookup Password step in Design Studio.
  5. Once the robot is ready for deployment, upload your robot to the Management Console. When the robot is uploaded, the administrator performs the security check of the robot and creates a new Password Access entry for the uploaded robot.
    Important Every time you upload your robot or any of its components, such as types, snippets, and so on to the Management Console, a new Password Access entry must be created for the robot. Previous entries are kept in the Password Access list and the administrator can delete them manually.
