# Activate an attended configuration record

# Activate an attended configuration record in RPA Hub {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Activate an attended configuration record to enable the UI action that triggers the attended automation on the associated ServiceNow form.

## Before you begin

Familiarize yourself with Embedded Task Automation concepts. For more information, see [Embedded Task Automation (ETA) in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/eF6bSd361W_d5xgrlFaVIg "With the embedded task automation feature, trigger attended bot processes (attended automations) from the ServiceNow forms, apart from initiating them from the Attended Robot application.").

Create an attended configuration record. For more information, see [Create an attended configuration record in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/hkmb_~X7RMhAvmfDY88NzQ "Create an attended configuration record in RPA Hub to trigger an attended bot process that is enabled with embedded task automation.").

Verify that the attended configuration record is either in Draft state or Inactive state.

Verify that the RPA developer (sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_developer) is in the Managed by Group list of the associated bot process that is assigned to an Attended Configuration record.

Role required: sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_release_manager, sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_developer, or sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllRobotic Process AutomationRPA Hub Workspace.
2. Select the list icon (![List icon.]()).
3. Navigate to the Attended Configuration record either from the Attended Configuration menu list or from an attended bot process record's related list.

   | Option | Action |
   | From an Attended Configuration menu list | 1. On the Lists tab, in Build, select Attended Configurations. 2. Open an attended configuration record. {#activate-attend-config-rpa__ol_vqv_q52_vzb} |
   | From an attended bot process record's related list | 1. On the Lists tab, under Build, select Bot Process. 2. Open an attended bot process. 3. On the Attended Configurations tab, select an attended configuration record. {#activate-attend-config-rpa__ol_wqv_q52_vzb} |
   |-|-|

   {#activate-attend-config-rpa__choicetable_uqv_q52_vzb}
4. In the form header, select Activate.
{#activate-attend-config-rpa__steps_ind_rr2_vzb}

## Result

The corresponding UI action is created on the ServiceNow form. On selecting this UI action, if there are any unsaved changes, the save confirmation dialog box is displayed. Otherwise, corresponding bot process (automation) is triggered. If the
UI action isn't visible, refer to the visibility conditions. For more information, see [Conditions for the visibility of UI action (button)](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/MaIf9wmLtJw~o9x~Khkt~g "Ensure the following conditions are met to view the UI action (button) on the corresponding ServiceNow form, for the associated table that is selected in the Attended Configuration record.").
