Hi all,

I’ve written a python script to execute - is there any way to run this using UiPath?

Is it as simple as adding it to a batch file and then running it in CMD?

Thanks in advance, Yi Peng

Thanks Ashwin,

the post talks about calling UiPath from python; I meant the other direction, which I assume should be easier - i.e. one of the steps to be “Call Python Script”
