Ui path robot not installed in local pc

[Dhanushka_Gunasinghe]

Hi Experts.
I installed uipath community edition 22.4. But I couldn’t find UIpath robot on the local PC. It works with orchestrator connection without issue, Is there way to execute program without connecting to the orchestrator…???
Thanks for help

Hi @Dhanushka_Gunasinghe

UiPath community edition get its license from Automation cloud (Orchestrator). So, without that you cannot run the robot.

You may open your studio without connecting to orchestrator, but you cannot edit xaml files and it can be only used for debugging purpose

If you get attend robot license, then you can run the robot from local pc without orchestrator.

Thanks
John

how can I get an attended robot license…is that free?

We have attended license available in both Community version and Enterprise version. But only the enterprise version supports robot activation without orchestrator. Enterprise license is not free.

Licensing a Robot (uipath.com)

For community version it is named user license, so you need orchestrator connection for the robot work.

May I know the reason why you want to use attended robot and that too without orchestrator.

Thanks
John

Thanks for reply john
actually, I am new to the UI path. i developed project and it’s working successfully running connected to the orchestrator. I want to deploy this project to client PC and running as attended automation. Is the client required to download uipath studio or is it enough to create an account in uipath cloud? can I publish my project directly to client could env and run using uipath assistant???

Your response is highly appreciate

Yes, you need to do like that. You can connect that particular machine to the orchestrator and can publish to that machine. Then you can access it in client machines uipath assistant.

Thanks

Hi @Dhanushka_Gunasinghe

To run the process in Client environment we do not need studio. UiPath assistant is enough to run the process. So, during Installation you can choose “Attended Robot” option.

Installing the Robot (uipath.com)

Points to consider

1. Publish your process to UiPath cloud (Your desired folder)
2. Create Assets/Queue and other dependencies under (Your desired folder)
3. Create your client robot under same folder as your process
4. Assign the Attend robot license to your client robot
5. Open UiPath assistant in Client machine and download/update the process

If your client has enterprise attended license associated with orchestrator or UiPath cloud. then follow the same steps as above.

If your client has independent enterprise attended license and no access orchestrator or UiPath cloud. Then no need to perform above steps.

1. Install the robot and perform the activation as mentioned in this link Licensing a Robot (uipath.com)

2. You should copy your process package to client machine or VM under below folder. UiPath Assistant will pick process from here and display it for execution.

%Programdata%/UiPath/Packages

3. Open UiPath assistant in Client machine and download/update the process

Note: If you install studio, then you should assign developer license to use the studio.

Thanks

@Rahul_Unnikrishnan

Then you can access it in client machines uipath assistant.

Thanks for reply…But I didn’t get that…
as my understanding

1. publish project to custom location in my PC.
2. upload that into users cloud environment.
3. connect user’s PC to orchestrator and run using uipath assistant
   am I correct?

Thanks for prompt reply

@johnfelix

se attended license associated wit

Thanks for the reply bro.
Unfortunately, I have a community license. So it’s unable to run attended bot locally isn;t?
i have another doubt, my application uses a java applet-based UI element. if i published it to orchestrator and running using UI path assistant, is that need java extension installed in local PC…Thanks for support

Hi @Dhanushka_Gunasinghe

I want to deploy this project to client PC and running as attended automation. Is the client required to download uipath [studio] or is it enough to create an account in uipath cloud?

UiPath cloud is for process management and licensing and other things
To execute the process client should have robot or studio installed on their machine

can I publish my project directly to client could env and run using uipath assistant???

like @Rahul_Unnikrishnan mentioned. You can connect your robot directly to client environment and publish the project or else you can perform the steps you mentioned in reply @Rahul_Unnikrishnan post.

Unfortunately, I have a community license. So it’s unable to run attended bot locally isn;t?

I think I did not explain clearly in the previous answer.

When you say run locally, I believe it means running the process in client machine such as desktop or laptop. where they will open UiPath assistant and trigger the process manually.

If you see the above table. UiPath assistant will be available for all the license type and versions. Both enterprise and community users can trigger the process manually from UiPath assistant.

UiPath Studio - To create, update the automation process
UiPath Assistant - To execute the process manually
UiPath Orchestrator - To manage and execute process remotely + extra’s

Since you are using community version. once you publish your process to orchestrator it will start appearing in all UiPath assistants connected to that particular folder.

For example,

1. Sales is the Modern Folder in which your process ‘SO_Creation’ is published.
2. Your development machine (MC12345) and client machine (MC78951) both connected to the Sales folder.
3. Now UiPath assistant will display ‘SO_Creation’ process in both development machine (MC12345) and client machine (MC78951)

my application uses a java applet-based UI element. if i published it to orchestrator and running using UI path assistant, is that need java extension installed in local PC

You can enable required addons during robot installation
