See the Automation Anywhere's [Automation Co-Pilot using embedded widget overview documentation](https://docs.automationanywhere.com/bundle/enterprise-v2019/page/enterprise-cloud/topics/hbc/aari-integrations-overview.html) for more configuration options

### Passing information to an Automation Co-Pilot Process

To pass information to a Automation Co-Pilot widget embedded in the sidebar:

{% hint style="danger" %}
Ensure that the IFrame has the name aari-embedded-app, otherwise the Co-Pilot's cross-frame messaging will not function.
{% endhint %}

1. Ensure the "Name" of the IFrame field of the iframe is set to `aari-embedded-app`
2. Add a Trigger Starter brick for Page Load / Navigation
3. Add the Map Automation Anywhere Co-Pilot Data brick&#x20;
4. Configure the Map Automation Anywhere Co-Pilot Data brick to map data to a Co-Pilot process

For more information on mapping values, refer to the Automation Anywhere documentation: [Map host data to Automation Co-Pilot forms](https://docs.automationanywhere.com/bundle/enterprise-v2019/page/co-pilot-map-host-data.html)
