Thanks @Susana for your reply.
First of all I do not want to use Orchestrator. I wan to use Robot API.
XAML is working for me with Command line as well as Robot API.

Issue is with running NUPKG files, please see the issue detail and screenshot and suggest how to run NUPKG files using Robot Service NOT Orchestrator. Thanks in advance.

Hello @adil.khurshed,

if you do not want to use Orchestrator then you can not use rest command:

For running an automation project firstly you need to decompress it

Take a look,

Move the folder of the project (that contain the versions of the robot) on Desktop. You should run them now, by using “C.…\Uirobot.exe” -file “C.…\Main.xaml”.
Not a permanent solution, but it should do your work.

If you want to run the nupkg from the publishing folder with UiRobot it won’t work.

try use this command and see if it will works.
cd (path where your your robot exist)
(ex: C:\Users\Test1\AppData\Local\UiPath\app-20.4.0-beta0472)

UiRobot.exe execute --file “(path of where your file is)” (ex:C:\ProgramData\UiPath\Packages\Hello.World.1.0.2.nupkg")
Note:- (the path should be between double qoutes)

so your full command should be like this without (cd)
C:\Users\Test1\AppData\Local\UiPath\app-20.4.0-beta0472\UiRobot.exe execute --file “C:\ProgramData\UiPath\Packages\Hello.World.1.0.2.nupkg”
