Leverage the capabilities of the enhanced Executable plug-in for a greater customization of your environment

The updated executable plug-in efficiently runs scripts or commands, providing greater control and customization in automated processes.

You can now run scripts or commands using the executable plug-in under a different user profile. Simply add the user credentials in the task definition. This option provides a more secure and customized access control. For more information, see Executable tasks.

You can also add the jobprop utility in task definitions to set output properties that can be used in other tasks. This feature only works with the executable plug-in and it is especially useful in scenarios where specific values and parameters need to be shared across multiple tasks. This utility reduces redundancy and improves task coordination, helping you maintain a leaner, more efficient environment. For more information, see Defining variables with the jobprop utility.

You can utilize the .unorc/unorc.cmd file to establish a custom environment for executable tasks. You can set up the environment variables directly in the file, which removes the need to configure them individually for each task. When the custom environment is set up, you can use it to run multiple tasks as the same user. This lets you set up fine-tuned environments where your tasks can run in accordance with your specific requirements and preferences.
