AIW03 - Install AutomationAI on Windows

In this course lab, you will install Automation.AI on a prepared Windows system and connect the component to OpenRouter via the OpenAI-compatible interface. You’ll copy the provided files, configure API access, and initially launch Automation.AI directly in the console. Next, you’ll register the local endpoint in Automic Automation and verify the entire connection using ASK_AI. A positive and a negative test will show you what a successful request and a communication error look like. As an optional final exercise, you can add Automation.AI to the ServiceManager.
In this practical Windows course you will install and configure Automation.AI for Automic Automation 24.4. You copy the prepared program files to the target directory, check Java and the designated port, and set up the OpenAI-compatible OpenRouter connection via the Spring-AI configuration. The course is aimed at Automic administrators who want to get to know Automation.AI in a controlled lab environment. You start the component in the command prompt, check the listener and startup log, and then configure AUTOMATION_AI_ENDPOINT in client 0. You will learn the most important steps of the integration:
  • Copy Automation.AI files from the installation directory to the target directory.
  • Configure OpenRouter via spring.ai.openai.base-url, API key and model.
  • Start Automation.AI locally on port 8500 and check the logs.
  • Connect the Automation Engine to Automation.AI via AUTOMATION_AI_ENDPOINT.
  • Analyze an agent's last report with Monitoring > Analyze Last Execution in the Automation AI Assistant.
  • Test the end-to-end connection in client 1000 with ASK_AI.
  • Reproduce the error handling when Automation.AI is stopped.
At the end you will be able to configure and test an Automation.AI installation in the Windows lab in a reproducible way, and optionally integrate it into the Automic ServiceManager if required.
