An agent is an object type created and edited by Event Studio. An agent contains the event condition and the associated tasks to perform. Once defined, an agent can be scheduled to check for instances of the event. You can create agents in Event Studio to monitor your organization’s data for occurrences of business events, and then perform tasks. For example, tasks can include sending an email, adding information to the portal, and running reports. For more information, see the Event Studio User Guide.
After an agent is published to the portal, use ATG Reporting Center to do the following:
run the agent
include the agent in a job
change default properties
create an agent view
subscribe to the notification list of an agent
receive news item headlines
view a list of the most recent event instances for an agent
You can schedule agents to run at a specified time or based on a trigger, such as a database refresh or an email. You can also view the run history of scheduled agents. For more information, see “Schedule Management“.
