The Configure action specifies the settings required to connect to the ABBYY Vantage server. Because it passes the connection settings to the other actions of the ABBYY Vantage Skills VBO, call it before any other action. You can authenticate with the Resource Owner Password Credentials Flow or the Client Credentials Flow. If you set up an External Identity Provider in ABBYY Vantage, only the Client Credentials Flow works. For more information, see Authentication using an External Identity Provider, Client Credentials Flow, and Resource Owner Password Credentials.

​
Action parameters

If both clientId and clientSecret are empty, the connector uses the default ABBYY Vantage client.

​
OAuth 2.0 flow settings

When you create a client in ABBYY Vantage, configure the OAuth 2.0 Flows Settings section of the client settings for the grant type you use.

​
Resource Owner Password Credentials Flow

Enable the Allow Resource Owner Password Credentials Flow option.

​
Client Credentials Flow

  1. Enable the Allow issuing refresh tokens to refresh access tokens option.
  2. Enable the Allow client credentials flow option.
  3. Click Manage Roles and select the roles that the application uses to log in to ABBYY Vantage.
If you select one or more roles associated with skills, also select the allowed skills for those roles.
For more information about ABBYY Vantage roles, see Role-based access control.

​
Proxy settings

You can route connector requests through a proxy server at runtime. The connector supports Basic, NTLM, IP authentication, and transparent proxy. To use a proxy, open the Configure action and specify the proxy parameters on the Inputs tab:
  • For Basic authentication, specify the proxy connection credentials in the proxyUsername and proxyPassword parameters.
  • For NTLM authentication, the proxyUsername and proxyPassword parameters are optional. If they are empty, the connector uses the credentials of the user account that runs the Blue Prism process.
