Requirements to setup on-prem (behind firewall and proxy server) unattended robot with Automation Cloud

Help Automation Cloud
1

Does anyone has done this setup in their enterprise environment?
Use the Uipath Automation Cloud but the unattended robots (in virtual servers) are on-prem located within the enterprise network. The enterprise network is behind firewall and internet access is only via proxy server.
appreciate any reference on setting this up. thanks.

  1. Is this meaning the scheduled triggers set in the Automation Cloud (AC) can be executed by the unattended bot at the enterprise network? and the logs from the bot’s execution will be pushed to the AC.
  2. can you provide more in-depth details for the interaction between the bot and the AC, what I mean is, as an example, the bot will always poll the AC at fixed interval (every minute?) to obtain the jobs to execute and download he packages published to the AC. Is my speculation correct?

Thanks Srini!
Assuming the method will work. My 2 questions earlier is to have more in-depth details on the interaction between the AC (cloud) and the unattended bot (enterprise network). hope to have those in-sight in order for me to assess the possibility of adoption of the AC for the enterprise deployment.

hi Srini, I have not got the insight for my question (1) and (2) yet…

1. Is this meaning the scheduled triggers set in the Automation Cloud (AC) can be executed by the unattended bot at the enterprise network? and the logs from the bot’s execution will be pushed to the AC.
2. can you provide more in-depth details for the interaction between the bot and the AC, what I mean is, as an example, the bot will always poll the AC at fixed interval (every minute?) to obtain the jobs to execute and download he packages published to the AC. Is my speculation correct?

AC is a Cloud managed Orchestrator, but to run the bots it’s require the license which you have to purchase the licenses(Robot / Studio)
Once you have the license then you can install the Robot / Studio to connect to your Orchestator which is in the cloud

You can map the similar way as the community Edition holds, For Community edition Orchestrator is managed by Cloud(UiPath), but you are running your robots in your lappy or some other environment.

As your behind the corporate network, so you can configure the robot to connect to AC by using earlier link settings

Hope this clear your doubts

Thanks

hi Srini, in nutshell I understand what you meant.
I am asking for more details on the AC and on-prem robot interaction in order to confirm the viability.
my company already have the enterprise license for on-prem Orchestrator and robots but I want to evaluate the possibility to migrate to the AC from the on-prem Orch.
