# Associate credential groups

# Associate a credential group to a bot process in RPA Hub {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Enable a robot to perform an automation in RPA Hub by mapping a credential group to an unattended bot process.

## Before you begin

Do this task only when you select the Process Type field as Unattended on the Bot process configuration form while you're creating a bot process. For more
information, see [Configuring a bot process record in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Fh5n_jyVL~kis5vxVwxTSQ "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."), [Bot process configuration form in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/DJh1I_B4PR0A~yi2jG5kFQ#bot-process-config-form "Use the Bot Process Configuration form to define the preliminary fields for a bot process record."), and [Bot Process form in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/1SYpQgsolYA0s6xdTr1KNg#bot-process-form "Use the Bot Process form to associate it to the bot process configuration and populate the remaining fields required for a bot process.").

Create a bot process. For more information, see [Configuring a bot process record in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Fh5n_jyVL~kis5vxVwxTSQ "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.").

Create a credential group. For more information, see [Create a credential group in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r4a4LmVBeHQAG~FHTl5cUQ#create-credential-group "Create a credential group to include a robot credential and application credentials that you can reuse in multiple bot processes. Unattended robots leverage the credential group to perform an automation that you defined in the associated bot process.").

You can associate the credential group to an unattended bot process that doesn't have the life-cycle stage status set to Retired or Published. For more information, see [Life-cycle stage statuses (LLCS) of a bot process in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/P43oLWrWkYJVbDSVS9p2sw "The State transition of a bot process guides you through the stages of its life cycle.").

You can't edit the Process Credential Mappings record when the life-cycle stage status of the associated bot process is set to Published.

Only the RPA developers who have created the credential groups can associate credential groups to a bot process.

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

## About this task

A credential group includes application credentials and a robot credential.  
Note:  
If you're upgrading to Xanadu and have customized the bot process related-list tabs, the Process Credential Mappings tab might not appear to you. However, you can add this tab in the bot process record by navigating to Additional actionsConfigureRelated Lists in the classic environment.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllRobotic Process AutomationRPA Hub Workspace.
2. Select the list icon (![List icon.]()).
3. On the Lists tab, under Build, select Bot Process.
4. Select the bot process that you want to map a credential group to.
5. On the Process Credential Mappings tab, select Add.
6. Select the required credential groups.
7. Select Add.
8. Provide access to authorized users.  
   For more information, see [Provide users with access to a credential group in RPA Hub](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r4a4LmVBeHQAG~FHTl5cUQ#provide-access-to-users-cg "Provide access to either all users or specific users in the Managed by group of the associated bot processes in RPA Hub. This way, you can make sure that the correct users have access to the credentials.").
9. Select Save.
