Hey guys,
I’m starting a new project where I need to open an application and enter some information.
My plan is to run the unattended robot in my VM server.
Is it possible to do this without a physical monitor?

Hi,

Yes, UiPath robot can create RDP session for itself. The following document will help you.

Hi @Yoichi,

To give context to the problem, the robot needs to open a software and entering information into it, the software is on the server.

So, your suggestion is to install the robot on the same server and when it runs the process, the robot would create an RDP connection to the same server?

Or do I set the robot to run the process on a different computer and thus make the RDP connection to the server? (I think that this option is more logical, right?)

Thank you for your help

Hi @vinicius.teruel,

It will be the former one.

Robot service need to be there on the machine it needs to run the process on.

Once done, robot will automatically create RDP session on that machine/server where process needs to run.

It is generally recommended for unattended automations and processes which require specific resolutions set to run. This functionality also come in handy wherein that machine allows multiple logins at same time. So multiple robots can be set up to run different processes at the same time on that one machine.
