Using the Orchestrator Configurator Tool

The Orchestrator Configurator Tool is a bash script designed to facilitate the placement of files and settings within the Orchestrator deployment in Automation Suite. It assists in adding storage files, credential store plugins, NLog extensions, new NLog configuration, and overriding appSettings.

Examples of operations that can be performed using this tool include:

The environment where you use the Orchestrator Configurator Tool must be capable of running a bash script and should have the following tools:

Important:

Do not download and use the ArgoCD CLI tool independently. To maintain compatibility and ensure smooth operation, we recommend using the ArgoCD we bundle within the Automation Suite artifacts. To do that, you must add ArgoCD to your path from the latest installer by running the following command:

export PATH="$PATH:/opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>/installer/bin"export PATH="$PATH:/opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>/installer/bin"
To be able to run Orchestrator Configurator Tool from any location, update the PATH variable to include <installer-dir>/Tools, as shown in the following example:
export PATH="$PATH:/opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>/installer/Tools"export PATH="$PATH:/opt/UiPathAutomationSuite/<version>/installer/Tools"
Make sure that the version of the jq utility is 1.6. If it is not, update it using one of the following options:
  • Option 1:

    yum install -y epel-release yum install -y jqyum install -y epel-release yum install -y jq
  • Option 2:

    curl https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/j/jq-1.6-2.el7.x86_64.rpm --output /tmp/jq-1.6-2.el7.x86_64.rpm
    yum localinstall /tmp/jq-1.6-2.el7.x86_64.rpm
    jq --versioncurl https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/j/jq-1.6-2.el7.x86_64.rpm --output /tmp/jq-1.6-2.el7.x86_64.rpm
    yum localinstall /tmp/jq-1.6-2.el7.x86_64.rpm
    jq --version
