Project Template Question

[sifuhall (Uipath Kenkyujo)]

I have a very small project that opens a browser and reads specific data on a website.

I would like to be able to launch this from the command line using UIRobot

What template would be best for this.

Hey @sifuhall

Any UiPath project will work when you just trigger it from command line.

It is just that you set a right main file and that’s it.

For triggering from command line you can please refer to Command Line Interface

Hope this helps

Thanks

hi @sifuhall ,

Since you are testing i would suggest you to use blank project and then use a sequence inside,

TO RUN THE BOT, BELOW COMMANDS MIGHT BE HELPFUL.

cd C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\UiPath\app-20.4.2
UiRobot.exe -file “C:\Users\username\Documents\UiPath\ProjName\Main.xaml”

HAPPY AUTOMATION !!!

Hi @sifuhall,

Regardless of the project template you use, you can lunch the process execution on the robot from command line. But since you mentioned it’s a small project you can start with a blank project.

Hope that helps !

Hello @sifuhall ,

As you mentioned it’s a simple project. You can directly go with a Blank project and a sequence inside it. if there are more chances for exceptions and the process is complicated you can prefer Re-framework.

Whatever the framework you will getting the .xaml file to start your execution.

“Path of robot.exe” /file “path of .xaml file”
