Create resource (Orchestrator)

Create resource Version 5 (Java)

Action group: Orchestrator Subgroup: Resource queues

Description

The action creates a new resource in the specified resource queue

The action sends a request to create a new resource in the resource queue stored in the Orchestrator database
When a resource is created, the server assigns it a unique identifier. Resource identifiers are unique in the Orchestrator database as a whole, regardless of which tenant the resource queue is added to
The specified queue is searched according to the following rules:
- If the robot project is started, the queue will be searched only in the tenant under which the user logged into the Studio. If the queue is found, respectively, there is access to work with it.
- If a ready-made robot is started, the queue will be searched only in the tenant to which the robot itself is added (added either to the tenant itself or to its group). If the queue is found, respectively, there is access to work with it.
The action can immediately block a new resource for reading or writing if the corresponding input parameters are filled in. In addition, the date of unblocking the resource will be specified. The presence of the unblocking date means that the resource will be blocked until the specified date, even if the robot has already finished its work. When the specified date occurs, the Orchestrator server side will remove the blocking itself. However, the current instance of the robot can also remove the blocking if it performs the corresponding action
When blocking a resource, this robot instance becomes the owner of the set type of blocking. Being the owner of the blocking means that only the same robot instance can remove this blocking. And 2 different launches of the same robot (2 different instances) are considered as different owners
The user has more authority than robots, so they can remove/set the blocking regardless of who owns it
