Setting up Linux robots
To set up robots in a Linux environment, you need an existing unattended setup in Orchestrator.
The following procedure downloads the docker image on Linux and connects the Robot to Orchestrator:
- In a command line terminal, download the Docker image:
docker pull uipathprod.azurecr.io/robot/uiautomation-runtime:latest24.10docker pull uipathprod.azurecr.io/robot/uiautomation-runtime:latest24.10 - Once the image is displayed in your Docker environment, accept the license agreement, and connect the robot to Orchestrator.
- Using the client ID and the client secret of the machine template:
docker run -e LICENSE_AGREEMENT=accept -e ORCHESTRATOR_URL="https://cloud.uipath.com/organization/tentant/orchestrator_"-e CLIENT_ID="$Client_ID" -e CLIENT_SECRET="$Client_secret" -tid uipathprod.azurecr.io/robot/uiautomation-runtime:latest24.10docker run -e LICENSE_AGREEMENT=accept -e ORCHESTRATOR_URL="https://cloud.uipath.com/organization/tentant/orchestrator_"-e CLIENT_ID="$Client_ID" -e CLIENT_SECRET="$Client_secret" -tid uipathprod.azurecr.io/robot/uiautomation-runtime:latest24.10 - Using the machine key:
docker run -e LICENSE_AGREEMENT=accept -e ORCHESTRATOR_URL="https://cloud.uipath.com/organization/tentant/orchestrator_" -e MACHINE_KEY="$KEY" -tid uipathprod.azurecr.io/robot/uiautomation-runtime:latest24.10docker run -e LICENSE_AGREEMENT=accept -e ORCHESTRATOR_URL="https://cloud.uipath.com/organization/tentant/orchestrator_" -e MACHINE_KEY="$KEY" -tid uipathprod.azurecr.io/robot/uiautomation-runtime:latest24.10
- Using the client ID and the client secret of the machine template:
- To see the status of the robots on your machine, run:
docker ps -adocker ps -a - To disconnect a robot, run:
docker stop {container_id}docker stop {container_id} - To stop the robot, but keep it connected to Orchestrator, run:
docker kill {container_id}docker kill {container_id} - To retrieve the logs from the container, run:
docker cp <ContainerId>:/home/robotuser/.local/share/UiPath/Logs <TargetPath>docker cp <ContainerId>:/home/robotuser/.local/share/UiPath/Logs <TargetPath>
