Use Excel in UiPath in AWS EC2 instance

Help Cloud Robots

Hi,
I am looking to move my existing UiPath workflow to AWS EC2 instance. Since this rpa automation works with Excel (with Office 365 license), how do we access excel ? Does AWS allow Office365 license in EC2 instance?

Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Srini. Are you sure because AWS folks told that based on Microsoft terms, AWS Office LTSC offering will not work for RPA with MS office components .

This means that we cannot have excel thick client installed in EC2 instance.
