There are 2 steps in UiPath to set up before using this action:
Setting up UiPath for the first time is a technical process and requires familiarity with UiPath Orchestrator and use of Postman or cURL to make API requests. We recommend developers assist when setting up the action for the first time.
After a process has been set up in UiPath, use this action to set the parameters for new jobs, like selecting the Robot IDs or passing in variables.
This action requires a preconfigured UiPath integration. For more information on integrating Catalytic with other systems, please refer to the Integrations section of our help center.
In Catalytic, use this action to start a UiPath job from a deployed package as part of a Workflow process. For each job, you can configure the same settings that would be available in UiPath Orchestrator, such as selecting the Robots, choosing how to allocate Robots, or passing in input arguments.
To fully configure this action, some API Requests are required to identify the Robots or packages; the Release Key and Robot IDs are specific identifiers associated with starting Jobs in UiPath. API requests require authentication through UiPath.
The Release Key is the unique identifier of the release associated with the job, this Key is required to start a Job. Follow the steps below to make an API request to UiPath to get the correct key.
With Postman or cURL, make a request to the release resource to return all release information. Make a GET request to:
The request response includes all releases on the Orchestrator account. Each release has an Id. In this example below, the release ID is 665533—this ID is required to identify the correct release and is added to the Release Key field during configuration.
You can start UiPath jobs using specific Robots, or all Robots. To start this action and choose specific robots, set the Strategy field to Specific and make the GET request below for each Robot ID. Follow the steps below to make an API request to UiPath to get Robot IDs.
With Postman or cURL, make a request to the robots resource to return all robot information. Make a GET request to:
The request response includes all Robots on the Orchestrator account. Each Robot has an Id. In this example, the robot ID for the first Robot, Example Robot, is 90413—this ID is required to identify the correct Robot and is added to the Robot ID(s) field during configuration.
Enter the input arguments in the following JSON format:
This action outputs every response the Orchestrator API returns when a job is started and each response item is added to its own Catalytic field. These fields are information like the start time of the job, input arguments, release name or environment, or state. For more UiPath response information see UiPath’s API reference.
This action may generate multiple fields. To help keep output fields organized, the prefix above will be added to the beginning of each of the output field names, separated by two dashes. Each field will result as:{{output-field-prefix--output-field}}. Learn more
