Edit Resources and Dependencies

Users can edit system resources, user-generated resources, and dependencies from the Resource Dependency Model page (Configuration>Resources). If you want to restore original configuration of system resources, you can restore by uploading the configuration files. Configuration files for system resources are available on Paragon Automation server and GitHub. You can upload resource configuration from Rules page or Playbook page. See Add a Predefined Playbook for more information.

Note:

If you edit a system resource and later restore it to the original configuration, Paragon Automation continues to display the resource status as modified.

  2. Do one of the following:
    1. Select the resource from Resources table and click edit (pencil icon).
    2. Select the resource on the resource model visualization and click Edit in the information pane of the resource.
