Launch uiPath robot with a web service

I have a web service that takes data from an Website form filled out by a client. When they click, the web service starts and retrieves data that is already filled out. I want this web service to trigger a UiPath robot. How can I do that?

We can start Jobs by using the Orchestrator Rest API

It can be explored by using swagger for the first RnDs

Endpoint: /odata/Jobs/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.StartJobs

Example: Start Job

It would be simpler to have the web form create a queue item in a queue, then have a queue trigger start the job.

can you expalin more ?

Iā€™m not sure how I could make it more simple. When the user submits the form the form uses the Orchestrator API to create an item in a queue. A queue trigger then starts the job.
