Appian RPA Connected System provides an integrated solution to support full-stack automation in Appian. Build robotic processes to automate repetitive tasks to free up your workforce and ensure data accuracy. Appian RPA tightly integrates with BPM, AI, and case management so you can use the right automation technology for a given use case. Once the connected system is authenticated via API key, robotic processes automatically appear in the available operations based on permissions.

Field	Description
API Key	This is the key generated when you create the service account.

Operations

Name	Description	Type
Execute a robotic process	Integration to execute a robotic process in Appian RPA.	WRITE
Retrieve execution results	Integration to retrieve results from an executed robotic process in Appian RPA.	READ

When you set up either operation, you'll choose a robotic process from the list. The options appear based on the service account's permissions within Appian RPA.

Execute robotic process

Executes a robotic process in Appian RPA on the specified resource.

In the integration designer, configure the following settings:

• Operation: Execute Robotic Process.
• Robotic Process: Select the robotic process to execute in Appian RPA.
• Resource: Select the resource to execute the robotic process. Choose First available resource to use any resource with proper permissions when it becomes available. You can also use the expression editor to configure this setting.
• Description: Add an optional description for this robotic process execution. You can also use the expression editor to configure this setting.
• Priority: Assign this execution a relative priority. Options include Highest, Higher, High, Normal, Low, Lower, and Lowest. If there are queued executions, Appian RPA uses priority to determine which robotic process to execute ahead of others. You can also use the expression editor to configure this setting.

Retrieve execution results

Retrieves results of a robotic process execution in Appian RPA through the execution ID.

In the integration designer, configure the following settings:

• Operation: Retrieve Execution Results.
• Execution ID: Enter the execution ID to retrieve all results and details for that specific execution. You can enter the value here or use the expression editor.
