Triggering same robot multiple times

Help Robot
1

Hello, I am new to UiPath and I am wondering whether UiPath workflow or robot can be triggered multiple times in parallel. In other word, I want to develop a robot which will fill the form and return generated pdf file to the server, so I want to know, can server trigger several parallel processes filling the same form.

Hi @Jamshedkhon_Akobirov,

Welcome to UiPath Community!

yes, that can be done. You can run same workflow/process in multiple machines or using different service accounts with the same server.

If you can build your automation that works entirely in the background then yes… you can execute multiple processes. I could not find anything specific to running the same process multiple times but you can always try.

More info on Background Process is here https://docs.uipath.com/robot/standalone/2023.4/user-guide/background-process-automation

Hi @Jamshedkhon_Akobirov ,

Yes. This is possible. However, we would need to understand in terms of Licensing as well. Multiple Times meaning Multiple Runtimes, would essentially mean Multiple Unattended Robot Licenses.

So in order to run same workflow several times in parallel I need to have several licenses to make it possible? Or You mean that if I decide to create multiple VM and make them run the same workflow in parallel I need to be having multiple licenses?

Then it is not possible to run the same workflow multiple times in parallel in single machine?

@Jamshedkhon_Akobirov,

In parallel, we cannot run same workflow in a machine with single user session.
