Bot linking to Machine or License issue

Key Facts:

I’m trying to download UI Path studio, locally. First, maybe i don’t even need to do that but goal is to use bots on my local machine. I try to download and i get a message that states, “Connection failed: Cannot acquire a license.” then a learn more link. When that is selected, it takes me to a page that has the error. It states, " Cause:

You are trying to sign in but your user is not properly configured to acquire a license from Orchestrator.

Solution: In Orchestrator, edit the current user, make sure the option to create an attended robot for the user is selected, and select a developer license type for which a license is available. You can check license availability by going to Tenant > License.

I have tried and failed many times and so let me run through specifics.

  1. Machine Configuration:
  • I have a “George Serverless” machine set-up as a “Cloud Robot - Serverless.”
  • This machine is associated with the “Shared” folder, which means it should be available for use with unattended robots.
  1. Robot Configuration:
  • I have a “George_UnattendedBot” robot set up as an unattended robot.
  • The robot is also associated with the “Shared” folder, which should make it available for use with the “George Serverless” machine.
  1. License Issue:
  • When I check the “License: Production (Unattended)” section, there are no machines listed, suggesting that the “George Serverless” machine might not have the unattended license assigned.
  • Despite the machine and robot being correctly associated with the “Shared” folder, there seems to be an issue with applying the unattended license or linking the robot to the machine. I don’t even know how to link the robot to the machine, because I don’t see that option available?

Key Issues:

  1. Unattended License Assignment:
  • The “George Serverless” machine is not showing up under the “License: Production (Unattended)” section, which might indicate that the unattended license is not properly assigned or recognized.
  1. Robot-Machine Linkage:
  • There is uncertainty about whether the “George_UnattendedBot” robot is correctly linked to the “George Serverless” machine.

Potential Next Steps for the Forum:

  • How do I correctly assign an unattended license to a “Cloud Robot - Serverless” machine in UiPath Orchestrator?
  • Why isn’t my “George Serverless” machine showing up under the License: Production (Unattended) section even though it is configured correctly?
  • How can I ensure that my “George_UnattendedBot” robot is correctly linked to the “George Serverless” machine for unattended automation?
  • What might cause the selection box for the folder during the Unattended Setup process to be unselectable?

Hi,

Serverless robot doesn’t require Unattended License. It consumes RobotUnits
