You just need to add the tool in the agent and it’ll do the work.

Hi @vhvinodsai

Yes. Chatbots can trigger actions on web portals and send results back to the user.

How it works (high level):

  • User sends a message to the chatbot (Teams / Web / WhatsApp).
  • Bot calls an API / RPA / automation.
  • Automation logs into the web portal, performs actions (search, submit, fetch status).
  • Result is returned to the bot.
  • Bot responds back to the user with the outcome.

Common implementations:

  • UiPath Chatbot + Attended/Unattended Bot
  • Chatbot → API → Web application
  • Chatbot → Orchestrator Queue/Job → Result callback

Hi @vhvinodsai

Yes, this is possible.

A weather chatbot can trigger web portals or web APIs to fetch weather data and then send the response back to the user. In UiPath, this is usually done by calling a weather API using HTTP Request or by triggering a web automation process from the chatbot. The bot processes the response and returns the weather details to the user in chat.

You can say that chatbots act as an interface, while the actual data is fetched from web portals or services in the background.
