RPA v22 compatability with Robot Manager versions

I am trying to upgrade to RPA v22, but am unable to connect my Robot Manager 8.6.1 instance form v22 Studio. Do I need a higher version of Robot Manager for this? I’m suspecting I may, as the endpoint it’s looking for is “…prweb/api/robotics/v1/attended/connection” and I don’t see an “attended/connection” endpoint in the robotics REST package. I’ve tried to verify the compatibility requirements in Pega documentation, but haven’t been able to find anything definitive.

Hello @TomW4114,

Robot Studio shouldn’t try to call attended/connection unless you are trying to test an attended RPA solution. For that scenario, you need at least Platform and Robot Manager 8.7.

To connect Robot Studio 22.1 for assets you need at least Platform and Robot Manager 8.8. For general basic functionality you can continue to use 8.6, but it is a very old version now, and my recommendation anyway would be to use the latest version of the software which currently is provided with Infinity’23.

Thanks for the reply Angel.

I am not intending to use an attended solution. I tried changing the CommonConfig file, switching the Robot Manager’s serve configuration settings to RPA =“True” hoping that would do it, but it didn’t seem to make a difference. Is there somewhere else I need to make a change to prevent it from trying to attended?

Meanwhile, I’ll put in the recommendation to upgrade to 8.8. Thank you.
