The Task Mining agent is a service installed on workstations that logs certain events from desktop applications.  
Role required: Task Mining Agent Install  
Hinweis:  
You must be a part of the Task Mining Agent Install group with roles itil, sn_tm_core.service_user, and agent_client_collector_admin to install the Task Mining agent. If the group doesn't exist, create a group with that name and those roles manually. For more information, see [Assign a role to a group](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=t_AssignRoleToGroup&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US).  
The process to install a Task Mining agent is as follows:

1. Data log request is submitted by a Task Mining analyst or power user.
2. The manager approves the request.
3. Installation is performed by an IT or security user who is a part of the Task Mining Agent Install group with admin rights on the target workstation.
