Design Time Robot Statuses
A robot's design time status progresses from Draft to Configured to Active. View the status in a project on the Design page.
Workflow
The following diagram illustrates the workflow that you follow to update a robot's status.
Description of the Statuses
Status | Description |
---|---|
Draft |
A newly created robot has a status of Draft. |
Configured |
A robot's status changes to Configured after you complete the following tasks:
|
Activation in progress |
After you activate a robot, it's status briefly changes to Activation in progress before becoming Active. You typically need to refresh the page to see the Active status. |
Active |
A robot that is active can be run, either on its own or by an integration. Tip: If you need to update an active robot, just deactivate it. Its status changes from Active to Configured. |
Robots Instances Have Runtime Statuses
When you run a robot, a robot instance is created, and the robot instance has a status that indicates whether the robot was successful. For details, see Runtime Statuses of Robot Instances.
