Configuration Steps

In order for your automation projects to benefit from the Robot JavaScript SDK, the following prerequisites need to be met:

  • Studio and Robot version 2019.10 or greater installed

  • The UiPath JavaScript Add-On installed on the Robot machine

  • The Robot JavaScript SDK

    Important:

    The Robot JavaScript SDK is provided out-of-the box for Studio Community Edition v2020.2 and Enterprise v2020.4 and greater. For Enterprise v2019.10 LTS a stand-alone Add-On installer is also available.

    If you upgrade from v2019.10 to v2020.2 and later, you need to manually uninstall the UiPath Robot JS Add-on before running the Studio and Robot installer.

Once the UiPath JavaScript Add-On is installed, a prompt is displayed to allow your custom application or web page to connect to the Robot when a method is called. You can test it here.

The Robot JavaScript SDK​

This SDK provides all the necessary methods and properties you can include in your custom application or web page. You can download it as follows:

The npm package is available with TypeScript bindings. To include it in your project, you need to execute the following command at the root of your project directory:

npm install --save @uipath/robot
npm install --save @uipath/robot
