How to execute a workflow on a PC which doesn't have the UiPath Studio or UiPath Robot installed? inspired me to install Robot on my 2nd machine.

I would like to install the Robot on that machine. So I wanted to install the Robot silently and connect it to Orchestrator automatically:

UiPathStudio.msi ADDLOCAL=DesktopFeature,Robot,RegisterService CONNECTIONSTRING=https://platform.uipath.com?tenantId=SERVICENAME /Q

But what is my personal connectionstring and the tenantId? I was looking for info in my account. But there is no URL neither an ID. How to get them now?

The simplest way to install a robot is to install a Studio.

You can find your tenantName in the orchestrator URL after you login (https://platform.uipath.com/YourTenantname/portal_/serviceinstances)

you can find your tenantID as you go to: Orchestrator>>services>>click your tenantname>> you will go to your account, look at the URL (https://platform.uipath.com/tenantName /tenantName /?ou=XXXXX&tid=YYYYYY) your tenantID have to be there

  • Sure that's clear. But that's overkill. That machine does not need the Studio. Why should I install software that is not needed. But thanks anyway. If I find not a better way I might think this one here. – kwoxer Oct 03 '19 at 15:35

You can run robots without Orch connected but to run Robot in a certain machine you need to provision this machine unless you install UiRobot without the studio or you can get a front office license and trigger the bot from there it using *.bat file or you can trigger by scheduling through windows task scheduler.

Please mark as answered if this help :)

  • This sounds very interesting to me! But could you go a bit more into detail with a step-by-step? That would help me a lot. So you said I should use a bat file. You mean install with `UiPathStudio.msi ADDLOCAL=DesktopFeature,Robot,RegisterService` and then run the bat file with `robot.exe ...`? And for sure the machine need to be provisioned. That's clear. – kwoxer Oct 06 '19 at 12:01
