Where to Download the IBM Emulator PCSWS.EXE file to use with Power Automate Desktop?

Posted on by 2

I am trying to set up an IBM AS400 emulator and using Power Automate Desktop to enter data into the Emulator. I am having issues with downloading the PCSWS.EXE file as IBM's sites has a lot of broken links. I am trying to follow this article and stuck at step 1. Article: How To Run AS400 With Power Automate Desktop Terminal Actions (matthewdevaney.com)

    It looks like it's here, but you have to sign-up to download it from IBM themselves. Did you try this already?

    Hi @Rhiassuring  Thanks, the link took me to the list of items to download but I did not find the Pcsws.exe file there.  I think I would need the PCSWS.exe file to kick start/run the AS 400 in a real production environment.  I am working with a free dev PUB400.COM simulator that is hosted by a third party for dev purposes that runs after executing a file called TN5250.exe.   I think I should have the pcsws.exe file for my Power Automate flow to execute in order to connect to my production environment.   Please advise.
