Update Management

Update Management tab enables you to apply and roll back patches on Robot agents and Robots. Available patches are selected from the Control Tower and then pushed to the connected components.

 

NOTE:  
  • Ensure that the Robots are in stopped state when the patches are applied.
  • Patches for Robot Agents and Robots are different and can have a dependency on each other which will be specified in the provided patch notes. Patches can have a dependency on previous patches. You can opt to skip any non-dependent patch in between, however; it is recommended to apply patches in sequence only. If any of the patch# is skipped and you want to apply the skipped patch# then, rollback the patch till the skipped patch#.
  • If patches are not applied in sequence, it may lead to unwanted results.
  • If you already have previous version of AE RPA, you would notice that the Upgrade functionality for Robots in Robot View tab is replaced with Update Management. With this you can apply and roll back a Robot to its original state.
