How Robot can request credentials from CyberArk?

[RAJU_KADARI]

Hi,

Can anyone help with the process, how to use the CyberArk credentials into Robot (code) ?
Do we need to call any API … or please share your thoughts

Orchestrator Cyberark password vault integration design issue

I’m slowly beginning to understand I think point 1 is to offer this separation in Orchestrator - resource base access instead of role based access. Partially this can be mitigated via tenants or organization units. Point 2 is integration with multiple vaults. Even with the same but multiple servers (Cyberark1, Cyberark2). This is possible only at tenant level. Point 3 I don’t get. Instead of asking UiPath to provide different access rights to different credentials why don…

CyberArk to UiPath

Can we integrate CyberArk with UiPath.

Thanks @Divyashreem , i have already gone through those links but could not find info which i need.
I am looking for process or guide to retrieve CyberArk to UiRobot

will this help.?

Storing Robot Credentials in CyberArk

[RAJU_KADARI]

Yes Actually the above article will help to configure “Storing Robot Credentials in CyberArk” but getting credentials from CyberArk to use in Uipath code is not much clear and I am new to this CyberArk tool.

Hi @RAJU_KADARI

In CyberArk you can only store the Robot credentials (push) and you can only see them in the Vault. Why do you need the Robot credentials in the code? Those are used only when you run a Job for the Robot to connect to the Windows session. So basically they have nothing to do with other applications credentials.

If you want the Robot to login to other app you can store the credentials in Assets and retrieve them in the code using Get Credentials activity.

I hope this info helps.

Thanks,

Thanks @ovi, Actually i need to access third party secure client websites .
Where we dont want to place passwords in Orchestrator. We want to use CyberArk integration for this ? Will that work ?

[ovi (Viorela Preda)]

For now CyberArk integration is only for Robot credentials. We have on the roadmap for future releases to integrate other credentials too.

What you can do if you don’t want to use Orchestrator Assets is to store your passwords in Windows Credentials.

About the Credentials Activities Package

[RAJU_KADARI]

Thanks Again… We are planning to write custom activity to implement this feature
which can be re-usable for all projects

[ovi (Viorela Preda)]

That’s also an option. Let me know if you have any issues in developing it

[vivekvivid21 (Vivek Raja)]

Hi Raju,

i just want to implement same requirement to my client(UIPath–> CyberArk–> To Login client secure Website).

Could you suggest something on the custom activity to get the credential from cyberark to UIPath.

Your suggestion is really important and valuable for me; also it will make my development into more easier.

Hi Viorela,

Any updates on CyberArk integration with UiPath to store generic Credentials?
We are using Orchestrator but would like to use Cyberark.

Thanks,
Prachi

Hi @PrachiSinghDeloitte

It continues to be on our to-do list. Stay tuned

[bartierc (Christophe Bartier)]

You can write a script that opens the cyberark webpage and retrieves the password this way. Store it into a SecureString variable.

i did an integration with CyberArk and Uipath orchestrator. CyberArk is installed in different servers at enterprise level and UiPath in AWS. i have modified the orchestrator web.config but while running process i am getting the below error.

• Info: “Executor start process failed, reason System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))\r\n at UiPath.UiSystemClass.OpenInteractiveWindowsSession(String bstrUser, String bstrPassword, UiOpenSessionFlags nFlags, String bstrApplication, String bstrAppArguments, Int32 nDelayMs, Int32 userToken, UiGenericOptions options)\r\n at UiPath.Core.Setup.OpenInteractiveWindowsSession(String username, String password, OpenSessionFlags flags, String application, String arguments, Int32 userToken, Int32 preferredWidth, Int32 preferredHeight, Int32 preferredDepth, Boolean fontSmoothing)\r\n at UiPath.Service.Impl.Executor.StartProcessInSession(Guid executorInstanceId, String username, String password, SettingsDictionary execSettings, IntPtr userToken)\r\n at UiPath.Service.Impl.Executor.<>c__DisplayClass17_1.<<Start>b__0>d.MoveNext()”

Any suggestion?

[RAJU_KADARI]

make sure that machine IP/details (where you are running job) should be added to CyberArk web site. it mean you should whitelist that perticular machine which allows to run the job.

[A.Shukla (Alok Shukla)]

So just to be clear, we need to specify just the Orchestrator machine’s IP address in the Allowed Machines tab?
The way I understood, specifying the IP(s) here would restrict access to only those IP(s) and not specifying would allow unrestricted access to all IP(s) - is that not correct? Providing IP is must for this to work?

Hello @RAJU_KADARI this was a custom activity I found on the UiPath Go! site if you create an account you will be able to get it

https://go.uipath.com/component/cyberark-584002

Hope this helps

[RAJU_KADARI]

Tq, by the way we implemented long back … since it is using internal purpose , i have not shared here
