About the Robot JavaScript SDK
The JavaScript SDK for Robot (UiPathRobot.js) allows you to contextually embed your local attended Robot directly into existing applications.
See it in action below:
Prerequisites
A few things need to be considered first, such as having Studio and Robot v2019.10 or greater, connecting the Robot to Orchestrator, and installing the Robot JavaScript add-on. With the add-on installed, download the JavaScript SDK and use these SDK specifications to build your custom application or web page.
To use the JavaScript SDK, the JS Add-On for Robot needs to be installed on the end-user's machine where the Process is executed. The Robot Add-In exposes a secure communication layer between your application or web page and the UiPath Robot on the target machine so that commands can be received and executed.
For the RobotJS Add-on to work on Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, make sure to use Robot JS version 1.2.5 or newer and Robot version higher or equal than 2021.4.4.
Starting with the 1.2.7 Robot JavaScript SDK release, the following macOS platforms are supported:
- ARMv8
- AMD64
