The AWS SQS Automation Package enables Automation 360 bot developers to integrate bots with Amazon Simple Queue Service without writing custom Java, Python, or REST API scripts inside each automation.
This package provides reusable actions to start an AWS SQS session, send messages to a queue, receive messages from a queue, retrieve queue attributes, delete processed messages, purge queue messages, and end the active session. It is useful for event-driven automation, bot-to-system communication, asynchronous processing, queue-based workload distribution, and integration between Automation 360 and AWS-hosted applications.
Actions Included:
Start Session
Send Message
Receive Messages
Get Queue Attributes
Delete Message
Purge Queu
End Session
The included demo bot shows how to configure the package, connect to AWS SQS, send a test message, receive it, process the receipt handle, and delete the message from the queue. Users must provide their own AWS credentials, AWS region, and SQS queue URL, and must ensure that the IAM user or role has the required SQS permissions.
This package is intended for Automation 360 developers, RPA teams, cloud integration teams, and platform teams that want a reusable, maintainable way to connect Automation Anywhere bots with AWS SQS.
