Robots

A robot is a software agent that runs your automated process.

To create a robot, run Robot Studio and do the following.

• Click the New button on the command ribbon. New Project window is shown.

• Enter a Robot Name

• Select the Storage.

  • Local - The robot will be created locally.

  • Online - The robot will be created in Robot Cloud and a copy will be stored on the local storage. The robot is updated when you publish it.

• If you selected Online storage you have to select which workspace to create the robot. The Default workspace is selected by default. If you would like to create the robot in any other workspace,

  • Login to Robot Cloud and create a new workspace.

  • Come back to Robot Studio and click the refresh button next to the workspace dropdown.

  • Select the newly created workspace from the updated list.

• Click Create.

The Robot name should not contain spaces.

A new robot will be created and it will also create an empty workflow with the name MainWorkflow.vsbot. This will be the initial workflow by default.
