Introduction to the Automic Web Interface (AWI): Getting started made easy

In this tutorial, we will show you how to get started with the Automic Web Interface (AWI). AWI is a powerful web application for working with Automic.

What is the Automic Web Interface (AWI)?

The Automic Web Interface (AWI) is the central user interface for the Automic automation software. With AWI, you can efficiently manage and control your automation processes - everything can be done with the comfort of your browser.

Your first steps in the AWI

Our video guides you through the log-in process within the AWI. To get started, you will need the AWI URL, your username and your password. Optionally, you can also enter the department, which is particularly useful if the same user exists more than once. As soon as you have the necessary data, you can log in to the system without any problems.

Session colours for a better overview

Session colours are a very useful feature of the AWI. For each connection, you can select a colour, which is particularly helpful if you work with multiple clients or systems. In the video, we show you how to set these colours to make your working environment clearer.

Important AWI views

The AWI offers different views that are accessible depending on the user role. Watch the video to find out more:
  • Home: Dashboards with important information.
  • Process Assembly: For creating and editing jobs and workflows.
  • Process Monitoring: For monitoring active workflows and jobs.
  • My Catalog: For quick access to frequently used tasks.
  • Administration: For administrators to manage the system.

Practical functions in the AWI

Our video also covers useful functions and tips that will make your work at AWI easier:
  • Global search: Quickly find what you need.
  • Notifications: Stay informed about important events.
  • Drag-and-drop: Move jobs easily with the mouse.
  • "Back" browser button: Use the “back” and “forward” buttons of your browser for seamless navigation.

Automatic filling of the login screen

If you frequently log in to different clients, filling in the login screen automatically will save you a lot of time. In the video, we show you how to create URLs with login parameters and save them as bookmarks.

Pro tips for working more efficiently

At the end of the video we give you some pro tips to get the best out of AWI:
  • Open links in new tabs with the middle mouse button.
  • Use drag-and-drop to organise jobs and workflows.
  • Save certain AWI views as bookmarks.
