Connect to Orchestrator via UiPath Studio

Dear community,

Under Tenant > Robots > Classic Robots
image

Here it shows the robot is unlicensed.
However, under Tenant > License, I have already added the relevant robot.

I have checked the domain\username and they are correct (same as “whoami”).

Now when I try to Connect to Orchestrator via Studio, it keeps showing robot does not exist error.

How I connect: copied the machine key generated & keyed in the Orchestrator URL.
(PS: May I ask how do one normally get the Orchestrator URL?)

Any solutions to how I can connect to orchestrator via Studio?

@Techstop_SG ,

Check robot service and restart it again in the robot machine.

Hi @Techstop_SG,

Can you follow these steps:

There are two ways to solve your issue.
First, with the current settings,

  1. Go to Admin → Tenants → Edit License: Allocate the available license.
  2. Go to Admin → Organization Settings → Advanced Settings (User License Management) → Enable ,if it is disabled.
  3. Go to UiPath Assistant → Preferences → Orchestrator Settings → Connect with Service URL and also same with the studio.

Second, have to connect it using a machine key.

  1. First, disconnect your assistant and select Machine Key option as the connection type and you will find the machine name.
  2. Copy that machine name, and in orchestrator → Tenants → Machine → Create Standard Machine → Machine name should be the name which you copied from the assistant and allocate the license also based on your requirement.
  3. Then, Go to Tenants → Folders → Create Folder (Modern Folder) and once created select the folder in the same screen & select machines → Manage Machine in Folder & select the machine which you have created recently.
  4. Now once allocated, copy the machine key and paste into Assistant and URL is the tenant URL (usually: https://cloud.uipath.com/TenantName/id/orchestrator_) and paste it into the URL field and click connect & it should show as Connected, Licensed
  5. Connect your studio also using Machine key.

This will solve your issue.

Hello Murli,

What kind of license do we need for this setup? It’s Attended Named Users licenses enough?

I have this scenario: 20 users with Non Persistent VDIs and 5 Attended Licenses. I’m trying to make them use the licenses only when they need to run something, otherwise they should disconnect the robot and free the license used. I created both standard/template machine and connect to Assistant, but i’m getting the same erorr: “Connected to Orchestrator. Unable to retrieve a license (please contact your IT department)”. Any tips here?

Thanks in advanced.

Chek it.
