Processbots
Processbots are package of a process that contains the metadata
related to the process such as its name, author, tags, descriptions
and so on. Packaging a process with its metadata helps to know
the utility and other usage details of the process.
A processbot is another way of migrating a process from one
environment to another environment. All the processbots that are
created or imported appear in the Processbots
tab. A processbot imported from AssistEdge Marketplace appears

an insight if the process is re-used in any other process.
· Click to Export Process- Exports
the process to .zip file and saves in the local machine.

the metadata details entered while creating the processbot.
· Click to Delete Process- Deletes
the processbot.
