Hi
How to proceed with floating robot, I have created robot but it is disconnected

2

Hope this helps!!!

were you able to connect with standard robot?

Floating robot is for connecting different machines with a single orchestrator @KarthikBallary,

As I hope you are using community orchestrator, try provisioning the standard robot and remaining everything is same as in this video :slight_smile:

@KarthikBallary, you can create a standardized BOT which will work for any machine and deploy. It will be called as floating BOT. It means the BOT does not required any specific configuration for executions.

Hi @KarthikBallary,

you can use floating bot by having the following irrespective of community or enterprise.

  1. A Non-Persistent VDI.
  2. Active Directory users.
  3. Attended bot.

Thanks

Hi @HareeshMR,

First, thank you for your answer!

I have one confusing thing.

  1. There is robot in platform.uipath.com.
  2. And a robot is to be installed in a computer where a UiPath Studio is installed, so the computer can be connected to the platform.uipath.com.

The robot in the number 2 above, to me, seems to have to do with the robot in the number 1. What is the robot in the number 2?

Thank you and your even short answer will be much appreciated!
