@kkpatel

Could you please try below mentioned steps.

The issue might be due to Orchestrator URL provided in Robot.
You need to provide Orchestrator URL as :- UiPath instead of https://platform.uipath.com. Try it out, worked for me :slight_smile:

Sorry the correct URL is
https://cloud.uipath.com/[AccountName]/[ServiceName]

Could you please tell me how to get the AccountName and ServiceName ?

Login to Uipath Cloud your credentials :- https://cloud.uipath.com
Service will be mentioned on the landing page itself.
You select the service and reach the orchestrator home page
Select User Profile from top right.
Open Profile.
Name will be listed there.

Easiest way to find the URL for connecting orchestrator would be to navigate to Orchestrator home page and select the url before orchestrator.
For Eg my url comes like this
https://cloud.uipath.com/name/service/orchestrator_/?fid=343433&tid=434343

Thanks!

I am still getting the same error. I can connect to the orchestrator from my office. This error only comes when i try to connect to orchestrator from my home wifi.

Hi everyone, I have two questions:

  1. In the latest uipath version I want to select an xml and pdf from chrome
    image
    but when I run the robot using a normal click, click image or hotkey, the bot doesn’t select de icon and when I test the activity shows this error

This is the detail error:
RemoteException wrapping System.InvalidOperationException: Compilation failures occurred:

  1. How can I start a question in the forum? I’m new here and this is the only way I found to post my question

I need a solution fast, thanks in advance.

Hello @ksaray41

This is a run-time exception. Are you passing some dynamic variables to the selector?
If yes, Could you please share the selector which you are using?

Also Somewhere in your flow are you using this symbol ‘’ ?

This exception is not thrown while failing to click on the xml and pdf file names…Its due to the invalid character.

Hi @Rahul_Unnikrishnan

I’m not using any variable, this is the activity:
image

And this is the selector:
image

As far I know, there’s no ‘´’ symbol in my flow

@ksaray41 Reload this page again and inspect on this element again and verify any attribute is changing in the selector.
