Configuring automation types

Edit online

For semi-automated and fully-automated runbooks, which use automations of type script or type Ansible, a connection must be set up to connect to your target endpoints. To trigger runbook executions from incoming events, set up a trigger connection. You can add, edit, or delete the connection for each automation provider or the event trigger provider.

You can perform the following actions on each connection tile in the Connections page:

Configure: If you setting up your environment for the first time, or you want to use another automation provider, you can create a new connection. For more information about how to create a connection, see Create a connection.
Edit: If your settings changed, for example your username or password, you can edit your connection. Select Edit to open the configuration dialog and apply your changes. You can edit a connection if you are an RBA Author or RBA Approver.
Check connection status: Each tile will indicate if the connection is working or if it has failed.
Delete: If you no longer need a connection, click Delete to delete the connection. You can delete a connection if you have the noi_lead role.
