Running Automation scripts

Once a script has been designed, it can be executed in several ways:

• Manually: a one-time execution from a Visual Overview or from the Automation module. See Manually executing a script and Script execution options.

• With DataMiner Scheduler: scripts can be run automatically at certain predefined points in time. See Scheduler.

• With DataMiner Correlation: scripts can be run automatically whenever user-defined events occur. See Running an Automation script from a Correlation rule.

• You can make an API of your script using User-Defined APIs. For more information, see Using existing scripts.

Note

From DataMiner 10.3.0 [CU13]/10.4.0 [CU1]/10.4.4 onwards, to execute an Automation script, you need the user permission Modules > Automation > Execute. Prior to DataMiner 10.3.0 [CU13]/10.4.0 [CU1]/10.4.4, to execute an Automation script, you need the user permissions Modules > Automation > Execute and Modules > Automation > UI Available.
