What does it mean when a bot is 'deployed' in Automation Anywhere?

When a bot is described as 'deployed' in Automation Anywhere, it signifies that the bot has been successfully transitioned from a development environment to a live production environment where it can be utilized by users for executing tasks and processes. This deployment ensures that the bot is fully operational and can interact with real-time data, perform automated tasks, and deliver the intended business value directly to end-users or systems.

In this context, other options refer to stages of the bot’s lifecycle that do not correspond to deployment. For example, designing and creating a bot is part of its development phase, while stating that the bot is under development indicates it is not yet available for practical application. Similarly, saying the bot is being tested reflects a preliminary phase where performance and functionality are evaluated before being made available for actual use.
