Configuring the UiPath Cloud Orchestrator Service

Private vs. Shared Credentials: Currently, the UiPath Cloud Orchestrator Service can only be configured as a Private Service in the Browser Extension. Configuring UiPath as a Shared Service is coming soon

Click the Cloud Icon ☁️ in the Orchestrator row to view the API Information

Configuring the Service Credentials

1. Open the PixieBrix Extension (visit app.pixiebrix.com and click "Open Browser Extension")

2. Open the Configure Services page from the Sidebar

3. From the "Configure a new service dropdown", select UIPath Cloud Orchestrator

   
4. Enter your UiPath Cloud Orchestrator API information

• All: run the process on all unattended bots

• Specific: run the process on one or more bots that you select

Finally, configure the Input Arguments for your Process. PixieBrix automatically displays which Input Arguments are available. For example, the following screenshot shows configuring a "Crunchbase.Lookup" process that one argument, "OrganizationSlug":
