Robot Types & Configuration
All robot types share the same core — they detect UI elements, click, and simulate typing. They differ only in the environment where they execute your Scenario.
You connect to a robot from Connect in the toolbar (Shift+R), which opens the Open Environment dialog. Every configuration you fill in there can be stored under a Profile Name and reused — profiles persist per installation, and a scenario can pin the profile it should run with in Scenario Settings → Execution → Profile.
Keep separate profiles for separate environments, for example Test-Desktop and
Prod-RDP. The Orchestrator uses whichever profile the scenario has pinned, so a
scheduled job never accidentally runs against the wrong machine.
Action availability per robot type
Some actions only make sense on a particular robot, and the actions menu hides the ones that do not apply to the connected robot.
| Action | Desktop | Web | RDP |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clipboard Get / Set | ✓ | as [RDP] Clipboard Get / Set | |
| Open URL | ✓ | as [RDP] Open URL | |
| Custom Command | as [Desktop] Custom Command | as [RDP] Custom Command | |
| Close All Windows | ✓ | ✓ | |
| Copy / Move / Remove File, Create Directory, Open Folder | ✓ | ✓ | |
| Execute SQL | ✓ | ✓ | |
| Load CSV File | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Get File From / Transfer File To Remote Machine | ✓ |
Everything else — mouse, keyboard, wait, screen, flow, loop, AI, e-mail, notification and project actions — is available on all three types.
