De ning Robot Credentials

The de nition of robot credentials is available through the workflow nodes ' con-

figuration window. Once the target computing infrastructure has been selected, the

“ Create association ” button becomes visible if the gateway user has the “ Robot-

PermissionOwner nition

dialog, depending on the type of authentication applied by the computing infra-
structure, is presented for the workflow developer. Figure 6.3 shows the workflow
node con

” role. Once this button is pressed, a robot credential de

guration and a robot credential association for a CloudBroker-based job.
The robot credential association dialog depends on the type of authentication
applied by the target computing infrastructure. Notice that if all the nodes of a
workflow are executed on the same target computing infrastructure then the asso-
ciated robot credential can be applied for all the nodes of the workflow by simply
clicking on the tick-box of the “ Replicate settings in all jobs ” (Fig. 6.3 ).
