What is Uipath Agent

Can anybody tell me what is UiPath Agent exactly? Remember:Robot, Assistant, Orchestrator is not the answer.

Hi @Fahad_Ansari ,

Are you referring to the Robot Agent?

Here’s the documentation about it: Tray

I hope this helps. Happy automation!

Kind regards,
Kenneth

Hi @Fahad_Ansari
The Robot Agent (UiPath. Agent.exe, Robot Tray) is the actual user interface of the Robot . It is a WPF application which displays the available jobs in a system tray window. As a client of the Robot service, it can request to start or stop jobs, and change settings through an IPC protocol, based on user input.

Happy Automation…:slight_smile:

Then what is the need of UiPath assistant? All these things we can manage on assistant too.

I believe you have heard the term Agent Desktop before, which is the same for Robot Agent, that is the UiPath Assistant now.
