The Complete Beginner’s Guide to Laiye UiBot RPA Platform — Chapter One
If you are reading this article, you have already heard of Robotic Process Automation tools. If not, it’s not a big deal. Let’s check this up together.
What is the RPA?
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a sophisticated software technology capable of handling computer tasks. It uses computer software “Robot” to handle structured, repetitive, rule-based tasks, while interacting with applications and information sources just like humans do now.
The “Robots” aka “Bots” are of two different types, attended and unattended bots. Attended bots are designed for the processes that can be automated partially. Thus, the bots would handle a portion of the task, helping to get the work done faster. Unattended bots are capable of executing the tasks and interacting with applications independent of human involvement.
What is the RPA Tool?
It refers to a bunch of software packages that allow users to “design, deploy and manage” their bots for their desired automated process.
Who is Laiye?
Laiye is a pioneer company in RPA technology that offers free tutorials and educational resources as well as free RPA tools that we are going to use in our tutorials to automate different tasks. You can access Laiye’s tutorials, videos, documentation, and certification on our website.
That’s not all! Laiye product comes in three different flavors. Users can design and test their powerful and fast bots for their automated processes using the “Creator”. The Creator offers you a sophisticated user interface in which you can design your bots by just drag-and-drop and clicking on the available processes, while you can monitor your detailed workflow and it’s highly scalable and supports the third-party SDKs. It provides users with tones of processes that will meet all their automation needs. You can download this free RPA tool from our website and give it a shot!
Once the user designs the bots, they can deploy their attended or unattended bots using the “Worker”, which supports different operating systems and triggering methods, such as hotkey, timer, voice, and others.
There’s one last package which completes the joy, that’s “Commander”, or the user’s management center. Users can manage their plans and processes here and Commander gives the user heads up by providing the insights.
That’s all you need to use to automate your tasks from the scratch and enjoy the miracle of automation. That’s enough for the introduction.
Let’s Get Started with it
Download & Setup of Creator
The process starts with visiting our website by clicking here, then you can click on the “Download” button, fill the registration form, and finally select the operating system of your computer.
Once the download completes, open the installation package. Then, click on the “Next” and make sure that you agreed with the terms and conditions of using Creator.
Then you can choose the installation path and start the installation by clicking on the “Install Now”. Make sure you’ve got enough storage on your disk before installation.
That’s all we need to do for the installation. This is the end of Chapter One. In Chapter Two we are going to dig deeper into this by working on a practical project including but not limited to manipulation of excel files, conditional statements, file conversion, using a browser to access your email account and sending emails, and so on. We are going to explain to you how to use the Creator using a problem-based learning method throughout the chapters and develop a solid foundation for you.
