Configure a remote agent

You can configure a remote engine for cluster-based development environments. You can use an agent installed remotely in a Cloud computing service or a virtual machine. You need to specify the compute engine type as Remote and provide the runtime environment name in the INFACore SDK Python code.
Here is an example of the Python code snippet with the remote agent configuration:
user_config = {

    "login": {

        "username": "infacore",

        "password": "<password>",

        "env_type": "test",

        "url": "https://dmr-us.informaticacloud.com"

    },

    "compute_engine": {

        "type": "remote",

        "runtime_env_name": "<abc01.infa.com>",

        "install": False   
      }

    }

}
