Start Job - Account

Hello everyone,

can someone explain me, why “Run As Myself” appears, when I want to run a job?
Yesterday everything was normal with the account set to: “Any robot or machine”

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi @slaven.gajic,

Welcome to the community.

This is a new functionality that allows you to run the automation using your own identity. You can select the required account here. Please refer to the link below for more details.

Thanks

Hi @slaven.gajic

Because your job run settings changed- UiPath now defaults to Run As Myself instead of Any robot or machine when a specific user context is required or selected in the process/job configuration.

Orchestrator - Running Personal Remote Automations

If helpful, mark as solution. Happy automation with UiPath! :white_check_mark:

The “Run as Myself (Personal automation)” option appears when the selected process is a background process and personal automations are enabled for your account/folder.

This allows jobs to run under your own user identity instead of using “Any robot or machine.” If this behavior changed recently, it may be due to updates in folder configuration, unattended infrastructure setup, or changes made by an administrator to how jobs are executed in Orchestrator.

You may have to check with your Orchestrator administrator to confirm whether any configuration changes were made.

Cheers!!
