Retire a bot process to turn it off. It's one of the life-cycle stages of a bot process. After you retire a bot process, you can't use it anymore.

## Before you begin

Create a bot process. For more information, see [Configuring a bot process record in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/hb2MAhKGRNGZmQ2HlgCy3A "In RPA Hub, you can create a bot process configuration record and assign assets to associate it with a bot process. Or you can just save the bot process configuration record, however it won't be associated to a bot process. It remains orphaned.").

Role required: sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_release_manager or sn_rpa_fdn.rpa_admin

## About this task

If you are retiring an attended bot process that is enabled with Embedded Task Automation, then the following configurations are deleted:

* All the associated attended configurations.
* Corresponding buttons (UI actions) that are associated to the attended configuration on the related forms.
