I'm looking for guidance on how to configure two different types of unattended robots in UiPath

[nayeem732]

1. Unattended Robot with UI Interaction Enabled:
   I need to set up an unattended robot that can interact with the user interface (UI) of applications.
   This robot should be able to run processes that require UI automation.
2. Unattended Robot for Background Processing:
   I also need to set up another unattended robot that can run processes in the background without needing to interact with the UI.
   This robot should handle processes designed to run in the background mode.

Could you provide detailed steps on how to configure these two types of unattended robots in UiPath?

There is no difference between the installation of the unattended robots.

The only thing what will be different is the process that you are building. One should be created to start only in background (no UI automations) and the other with that option disabled.

Hi @nayeem732

If you have two unattended robots (2 runtimes) you can run the robot with UI interaction. And another bot with Background process. You can run both bots in a single machine.

Note this, you can run the one UI interaction robot and multiple background execution robots at a time in single machine.

Hope it helps!!

• Scenario 1: Setting up an unattended robot with UI Access enabled involves provisioning the robot in Orchestrator, configuring it on the target machine, deploying the process, and running it.
• Scenario 2: Setting up an unattended robot for background processing involves similar steps, with an additional focus on ensuring the process is designed to run without UI interactions and enabling background execution in process settings.

Is this the approach ??

@nayeem732 ,

Both are Similar or i can say same actually . Install a robot in service mode and link it to orch using machine key that will suffice ur requirement
