it succeeded but got another error code 1015

“message”: “Robots without credentials cannot run processes that require an interactive session.”

It seems that your process cannot run because your robot is not having credentials. It seems you chose an attended robot, not an unattended one with Windows Credentials.

Before playing and testing the API calls in Postman, check how it is looking the correct API call in the back-end. (right-click on the Processes tab page and go to Inspect → Network → look how it looks the /odata/Jobs/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.StartJobs request in Headers and the JSON Payload)

Example:

Where can we get machineID and RobotID?

9

/odata/Releases and /odata/Machines

10

Thanks ,can you please hep with parameters that needed to b passed in header and body

11

X-UIPATH-OrganizationUnitId: FOLDER_ID

12

Only Machine ID is enough for this? do we need robotID also ?

13

Please take a look here for more details: Start a job using javascript/nodejs - #5 by marian.platonov

14

Thanks ,when tried to find robot_id it says “@odata.count”=0.
I have given folder id in the header .

For /odata/Jobs/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.StartJobs you need this permission OR.Jobs or OR.Jobs.Write in the External application and Auth Token.

In order to get the ReleaseKey use this endpoint /odata/Releases (OR.Execution or OR.Execution.Read)

In order to get the ROBOT_ID use this endpoint /odata/Robots (OR.Robots or OR.Robots.Read)

If you cannot get your Robots details, use this endpoint:

https://cloud.uipath.com/ORG_NAME/TENANT_NAME/orchestrator_/odata/Robots/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.GetConfiguredRobots?$top=1000&$expand=User&$orderby=User/FullName%20asc

In order to get the MACHINE_ID use this endpoint /odata/Machines (OR.Machines or OR.Machines.Read)

Please open your Swagger documentation and check your Orchestrator endpoints and resources:

https://cloud.uipath.com/YOUR_ORG_NAME/YOUR_TENANT_NAME/orchestrator_/swagger/index.html#

How to find Machine ID? When I tried in swagger it showing no result with status code 200

17

Most probably, your token is not having the required permission to see the Orchestrator machine details.

Use the browser Inspect tool → Network while you are accessing the Machines tab in your Orchestrator. You will find the Machine IDs in the response.

18

I tried step menitoned by you, but still getting Response as @odata.count = 0 .

19

Are you seeing the machines in the Orchestrator browser UI?
If yes, using the same Rest API call for machines and the same user bearer token/personal token, will provide the same results.
