What are agents?

For on-premises systems, Moveworks utilizes the Moveworks Agent to securely integrate with your on-premises system. The Agent is a container based application installed on a VM or server behind your firewall. It acts as proxy for interactions between the Moveworks platform and your on-premises system in order to communicate with the system efficiently and securely.

What can you do in the Agents module in Moveworks Setup?

From the Agents module in Moveworks Setup will be able to:

1. Learn how to deploy agents in your on-premises systems.
2. Check the status of various agents deployed.

Prerequisites

2. Please see the Moveworks Agent and Moveworks Agent Installation Guide to learn more about agents, how they work and what are the requirements for setting up agents.
