I have created a RPA process to log into a software on our internal network and take screenshots of a machines status and then sends those screenshots to a user outside of the network.  The bot is running unattended on a Virtual Machine.  When I have the remote desktop open, the screenshots take the image of the entire screen.  However, when I allow the bot to run unattended the screen resolution is too small to capture the whole screen (see attached images as examples).  The virtual machine is managed via VMware. Does anyone know how to increase the screen resolution of the bot on the unattended Virtual Machine?

Dear Sir/Madam, I'm a newcomer with Appian RPA. And I'm trying to build a very simple process with steps for studying like this: Open a Google Chrome -> Search a keyword ex: 'World Cup' -> Then click a hyperlink or something like that. I have tried to find a document that similar guided end-to-end steps but not found so far. Could anyone have or suggest me anything else for newcomer? Thanks so much in advance.

Hi, I have a requirement where I have to schedule a task i.e to activate RPA agent from the server on each day when server comes online, I have used task scheduler to trigger the agent but its not being stable as it is activating and deactivating the next minute, which is leading all the RPA processes to be in queued. Please update with any solution.

Hi everyone, I'm trying out RPA on my Windows 11 computer. I used the configurator and followed all the steps. The configurator completed successfully. https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.3/rpa-8.4/custom_code/configurator.html. I start the RPA agent on my computer, it shows a list of Robotic Processes (created by a colleague on his Mac). Then back in my cloud environment, my computer does show Online under Resources. Next I create a new Robotic Process, blank template, add Permission, leave everything else as default, and click Create. But straight away I get this error pop up. Any help would be appreciated :)

Hello everyone, I can't find a single mention in the docs for this, so here I am - does anyone know what 'Orphaned' means for the result of an Appian RPA process? The process was a longer running one (looping over several pages to pull data out) In the Robotic Processes tab of the Appian RPA dashboard, the Result shows as Aborted and Orphaned. It shows pretty much the same thing in the Monitoring -> Events tab. There's no error in the process indicating why it would have broke, so any insight is appreciated!

I was trying to follow this course for RPA Windows Automation: https://academy.appian.com/#/online-courses/b08d47ca-0cac-42a4-803d-7384e0127dc4 The course stated to select the Element Selector to Name instead of Automation ID in Interact Element Action, and select the parameterized variables they told to create for the Element Selector Name. The problem is this doesn't work on my end. When I switch the Element Selector to Name and select the parameterized variable, the bot is unable to find the element as shown here:  However, when I deselect the Parameter checkbox in the variables, I was able to proceed with the Action, but the value of the clicked number in the calculator doesn't save in the variables:

Hi, I am creating a BOT, need to interact with element - login and password --> credentials..should be simple and straightforward but something's wrong..any help will be appreciated. for login, am trying to use name as selector with username as value same issue with class name.. and it is unable to find this selector as you see the source code doesn't gives me too many options.. when I try to use the recorder ..it picks up the CSS selector with value as c-portal-login and the login works perfectly but the problem is for the password field as well recorder is picking CSS selector = c-portal-login which confuses the BOT later (quite obviously) and the BOT updates the value of login and password credentials both on the same login field.. any suggestion will be helpful thanks jaideep
