Adding a Blue Prism connector configuration


As an administrator, add a Blue Prism connector configuration to connect BMC Helix Innovation Studio and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) processes in Blue Prism. After you add the configuration, map the configuration to the Blue Prism elements in the Process designer.

Before you begin

Make sure you have completed the following tasks:

  • Purchased a valid Blue Prism 6.10.1 or earlier version license and deployed Blue Prism in your environment.
  • Expose the RPA process that you want to use as a web service in Blue Prism.
    While exposing an RPA process in Blue Prism, do not use the Enforce Document/literal encoding option.
