How do I set up a Partially Unattended Automation

I have an attended automation that is currently triggered manually by a user on Assistant.

I want to change it so that it can be triggered both by SharePoint and manually through Assistant. How can I modify this automation to support both triggers? Should I create a new Unattended Automation for this or can I just change the automation I already have?

Thank you in advance for your time

@natanfigueira,

Welcome to the UiPath Community.

To be abled to trigger the bot by a SharePoint event, no changes as such required but this can be run only on unattended machine. Just create a connection on Integration Services, Go to Trigger, Select the event on which you need to trigger this bot, select the runtime machine and configurations, save. Thats it.

To keep triggering manually, no changes required.

Thanks,

In that case, I would lose the option to trigger it manually, right?

Is there a way to have both SharePoint and manual triggers as options for starting the automation?

Nope! I don’t think so. The package or bot would be running in attended or unattended will be decided on the basis of the bot license on which the bot going to run.

We can run the bot on unattended and attended simultaneously. Just remember to add logic to avoid the situation when both will be working on the same transaction or file or resource. This will result in conflict.

Thank you for your response.

I see now. I would need two machines to run it in both ways. So, the unattended machine would run the automation as Unattended, even though it’s technically an Attended automation, right?

@natanfigueira,

That’s right :+1:
