Hello,
I am trying to do the steps given for “UiDemo exercise” in the advanced training but got stuck at Orchestrator queue step. Created a Tenant in the Orchestrator and now how do I link my Performer sequence to the Orchestrator queue.
Note: Performing the steps as per the “UiDemo_Walkthrough.pdf” provided in training.

Please guide on how to proceed. Thank You!!!

@PavaniDilip,
*As you Have uploaded the workitems through Dispacther Process,Now you need to get those items.
*Get Transaction items retreives the items from the Queue,With Queue Item as input and your Transaction item will be the output.
*After retriving each item you need to process them according to the instructions mentioned in the Walkthrough.pdf.

Thanks,
Sreekanth

Thanks Sreekanth for reply.
I am stuck at performer sequence step only (not created the dispatcher sequence).
Can you guide me that step please.
Or after creating the dispatcher sequence only we need to run the process.

@PavaniDilip,First you need to upload the workitems to the Orchestrator queue known as dispatcher process.I think you did connect your robot to orchestrator.If you registered for sample orchestrator account check the heartbeat of robot else follow these steps
https://demo.uipath.com This is the demo orchestrator.Register as a tenant and login into it.Create a queue item in orchestrator and provide the name in dispatcher process.
Press ctrl+L and navigate to app 18.1.3 folder.There you can find uirobot.exe.Click on it and connect your orchestrator

How can we check the workitems are uploaded in the Orchestrator queue?
Also please guide me the next steps to continue the process.
FYI…As per the steps created a queue in the Orchestrator and connected which is also visible in the UI path Tray of the tool bar. Also the excel file opens up for some time and closes automatically.

Hi,
I just happen to be stuck with the same assignment^, I need to go one step back, I am getting the following error in the Dispatcher-Upload Sequence:

Message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. This error usually occurs when using a variable with no set value (not initialized).

Follow the walkthrough pdf provided.You need to extract the workitems to the datatable.Then you will have values in it

10

I am following , this is happening by the ReUiDemo2ad range for each row

11

The Datatable contains no values.Did you extract data and assign it to datatable?

12

…sorry it does not look like , but how do I do this?

13

I really follow the PDF, I thought that by READ range this will happen

Hello,

Create a tenant account in the Orchestrator and once login there, create a queue and Robot for the Dispatcher upload process.Also, make sure “Ui Robot” is started (check in your services directory) and also go to the program files and run the UIRobot.exe file which will display the Ui icon on the system tray as below -

Once the icon is visible, click on settings and enter the “Robot Key” (this will be the Key name which is created from above). Once it is provided the status shows to connected.
FYR…the below link has the process steps to connect-

Hope it helps.
