To exclusively use UiPath Virtual Machines with Robot Units, you would need the following licensing components:

  1. UiPath Robot License: Each virtual machine running a UiPath Robot requires a Robot license. Robot licenses are available in two types: Attended and Unattended. Attended licenses are suitable for attended automation scenarios where a human interacts with the Robot, while Unattended licenses are designed for unattended automation scenarios where Robots work autonomously.

  2. UiPath Orchestrator License (Optional): UiPath Orchestrator is a web-based management console that allows you to deploy, schedule, monitor, and manage your Robots. If you want to leverage the full capabilities of Orchestrator, such as centralized scheduling, monitoring, and management of Robots, you would need an Orchestrator license. However, it’s important to note that Orchestrator is not mandatory for running UiPath Robots. You can still use Robots without Orchestrator by configuring them to run in local mode.

  3. Package License (Optional): If you are using UiPath packages or libraries developed by third-party vendors or the UiPath Marketplace, you may need to obtain separate licenses for those specific packages. The licensing requirements for packages can vary, and it’s important to review the license terms provided by the package provider.
