Hi,

We have a requirement in Appian RPA where robot needs to open a website which is having 'http' and NOT 'https'. When I'm using 'Open Browser' action it is showing to provide a valid URL. Could anyone tell a solution on this?

Can you provide a screenshot of the error and the Open Browser configuration?

Try using this in RPA:
Open Browser, then use Keyboard Shortcut (CTRL-L) + Type Text (to type your URL) + Enter Key to navigate to the site.

Appian RPA does validate URLs, but we allow HTTP so that's not the issue. The more likely error is with your domain, especially if it is a local domain. We are looking into relaxing these validations to allow for more types of local network domains, but for now, Cyrus' suggested workaround is the recommended approach.
