RPA stands for "Robotic Process Automation" and RPA robots (bots) act like humans when working with digital systems and software.
UiPath is a software program that is used to create an RPA bot.
We then look at an example of a task a human might do, to create a report.
Then show how a UiPath bot can do that that same task.
NOTE: UiPath Bots are not meant to replace any employees, but are meant to help humans by doing mundane repetitive tasks freeing the humans to accomplish more productive work.
In this video we download and install UiPath Studio Community.
We see that there are 3 things we need to run a UiPath program:
1) We need to be signed in to cloud.uipath.com
2) We need to be connected with UiPath Assistant
3) We need the UiPath Desktop project
We run a simple "Hello World" program to prove we have UiPath setup and running correctly.
