KanBo and UiPath Integration: Configuration

KanBo side configuration

1. Create a pair of certificates. An article explaining the creation process can be found here.

2. After creating both PFX and CER certificates, put these lines into the appsettings.json of Your KanBo:

{
    "type": "auth.app",
    "issuer": "ui-path-actions-cert",
    "children": [
     {
      "type": "signature",
      "algo": "rs256",
      "children": [
       [
        "cert",
        {
         "type": "x509-file",
         "storename": "My",
         "file": "C:\\Certs\\KanBo\\UiPath.cer"
        }
       ]
      ]
     },
     [
      "mapper",
      {
       "type": "service",
       "name": "UiPath service",
       "roles": "service"
      }
     ],
     [
      "mapper",
      {
       "type": "user",
       "roles": "*"
      }
     ]
    ]
   },

Remember to put the actual path to Your .cer certificate in the <cert> line.
