Automate a process where the BOT will access another RDP and navigate inside a RDP session

Hi everyone!

We’re trying to automate a process where the BOT needs to log in to another RDP session and then navigate through the applications available within that RDP session.

We’re currently using Automation Anywhere A360, Version 34, and would like to know:

  • Is this scenario possible to automate using A360?

  • If so, what would be the recommended approach or commands/actions?

  • Are there any additional tools or integrations that can be used with A360 to automate interactions within the remote RDP session?

  • Are there any specific configuration or licensing requirements we should be aware of?

Any guidance or experience with a similar setup would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

​@tjayaweera Yes, it is possible but not necessarily easy. 

RDP automation is a lot easier than it used to be. You may be able to use Recorder actions, but if you cannot, you have coordinate-based mouse clicks, simulation of keystrokes, image-based object recognition, etc. 

You can also check out the new UI Agent package to see if it will work with RDP. 

Licensing should be a non-issue unless you're trying to run another Bot Agent on the remote system. That could be required but I would first try automating through RDP.
