Hi,

Thanks for the plug @NIVED_NAMBIAR

Typically IoT solutions need to handle Event-Driven data. The best way to do this is in production for example, is to connect UiPath Orchestrator to Node-RED … See the link below.

I have also created some personal IoT projects with Arduino and Raspberry-PI … I used the UiPath Custom Activity Builder to attach robots to a Bluetooth connection… not recommended for mission critical but allows home IoT projects controlled by RPA to be created.

The overview of the Node-RED activity…

"Ever wanted to start a process from your phone, smart watch, or Amazon Echo? How about tell a robot when something important happens in Salesforce or SAP?

With Node-RED, the entire Internet of Things is now at your disposal when building workflows. With an easy drag-and-drop interface that treats everything–from Slack to a smart washing machine–as a node within a network, you can connect together every piece of your digital ecosystem, including UiPath."
