Login node allows you to log in to the machine automatically, start the bot from the cluster provided in the node details. Logoff node closes all running application, stop the bot, and log off from the machine.

Login and Logoff nodes are used to:

  • Log in to the remote desktop machine to execute the task and logoff after the task execution.
  • Bring up the machine only during execution and bring it down after the execution without any manual intervention.
  • Act as a virtual user logging into the respective machine.

Any node which runs on the bots can be automated without hindering the machine. The user can execute Tasks on a remote machine.

Login/Logoff nodes do not work if any additional security warning messages appear at the login screen of remote machine.
