Access control and governance for automations

One or more computer programs for performing runtime access control and governance for automations embodied on one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, the one or more computer programs configured to cause at least one processor to:

• check at least one of one or more actions to be performed by an automation, information requested by the automation, one or more tools used by the automation, and one or more prompts used by the automation against access control and governance rules;
• and
• responsive to the automation, based on the access control and governance rules, not being permitted to perform the one or more actions, receive the requested information, use the one or more tools, and/or use the one or more prompts:
• prevent the automation from taking the one or more actions, obtaining the requested information, using the one or more tools, and/or using the one or more prompts.

One or more computing systems, comprising:

• memory storing computer program instructions;
• and
• at least one processor configured to execute the computer program instructions, wherein the computer program instructions are configured to cause the at least one processor to:
• check at least one of one or more actions to be performed by an automation, information requested by the automation, one or more tools used by the automation, and one or more prompts used by the automation against access control and governance rules, and
• responsive to the automation, based on the access control and governance rules, not being permitted to perform the one or more actions, receive the requested information, use the one or more tools, and/or use the one or more prompts:
• prevent the automation robot from taking the one or more actions, obtaining the requested information, using the one or more tools, and/or using the one or more prompts, and
• send a notification to the automation or a client-side application indicating that the one or more actions, the access to the information, the use of the one or more tools, and/or the use of the one or more prompts is not permitted, automatically end execution of the automation, or both.
