Hi,

Please anyone tell me what are the prerequisite we should follow while creating unattended bot.

or while moving attended to unattended bot.

Because I’m getting much failure on UI activities especially click activity when moving attended bot to unattended bot.

Thanks,

Hi @sandhiya.ppp,

It doesn’t have any prerequisites it’s actually how you design the properties. Especially when you are moving the code to Dev (attended) to Production environment (Unattended) don’t use any hardware event.

Example:
Click activity basically work as default (Using hardware event) where you have to enable/select the simulate click to work perfectly in unattended environment.

Hope this will be helpful !!

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

No I’m automating SF, sometimes without enabling simulate click only, bot is going fine.

I would start by checking which clicks fail. When you have those, double-check the selectors. There could be differences on dev/production system, or user account specific.

It’s good to prioritize simulate input methods before hardware, but some systems supports only hardware clicks so this can’t be generalized.

Hi,

Could you please explain, “input methods before hardware, but some systems supports only hardware clicks so this can’t be generalized”.

It was a comment to this:

When simulate input method works, it’s the more reliable way to communicate with applications. But there are cases when the application does not support it - I guess this is mostly the case with desktop applications. Then we have to rely on hardware operations.
