Kibana / ElasticSearch for UiPath Automation Cloud

Help Automation Cloud

Hi All,

I just wanted to ask if anybody knows when we could expect Kibana and Elastic Search integration for the UiPath Automation Cloud Orchestrator? The documentation says soon but… are we talking about Q1 2021?..

Hello,

Also looking for an answer to this question. The picture OP took is from Orchestrator differences

We are running a smaller on-premise Orchestrator setup, and the only reason we can’t switch to cloud is having Kibana for all the statistics. That page has been showing “soon” for at least a year now, so really looking for a more concrete estimate so we can properly plan for a possible migration in the future.

To close this thread, Elastic Search and Kibana will not be made available in Automation Cloud. Log export can be used to transfer the logs to private Elastic Search and Kibana instances. Exporting logs

Hi Nicolae,

I recently started transitioning from on-prem Orchestrator to Automation Cloud. As expected, jobs that ran through Automation Cloud did not appear in ElasticSearch/Kibana. However the log files that are stored on the machine from the robot still generated in the robot user’s folder so there has to be a way to have ElasticSearch continue to read that, right? I wouldn’t think exporting would be necessary since the logs are already local on that machine so as long as there is a process that can send those logs to the ElasticSearch server then I would assume it could be done.

Initially I installed something on each VM that sends system logs for VM monitoring so I assume it would be a similar process. Unfortunately I am not an expert at ElasticSearch and that was years ago… is there a guide or something that might help us accomplish this?

Additionally, the link you provided only has log export instructions for Azure, AWS S3, and Google Cloud Storage but I can’t find any instructions for ElasticSearch (as of this date).

Hi Mitch,

Robot logs are routed to Orchestrator by default. If you want to configure the logs to go directly to other nlog listeners, see instructions here: Robot Logs.

If you go the Orchestrator route, the export option will put the logs in your storage of choice (in csv format - see help for an example) and from there you need to push them into your ElasticSearch.

thanks,
Nic

Any new update on this topic?
We are planning to move from on-prem to UiPath Cloud, what steps can I take to ensure logs appear on elastic search as well?

Any updates available?
