Sometimes there may be situations when the robot needs to be started from a certain step rather than from the beginning. This functionality is built into ROBIN Studio. Examples of how to start the robot from an arbitrary location are described below.

Example 1. Unsuccessful launch

When launching the robot from a specific action in the scheme and if there is no information about the related contexts and results of previous actions, the startup will fail and an error will be displayed.

Task: launch a robot with 2 steps in a robot that sets a tab in a document.

Realisation:

  • Right click on the "Set bookmark" action and click on the "Start from" button.

  • The robot cannot be launched because there is no information about previous launches.

If you click the "Start from" button on an action, an attempt will be made to run the script from the specified action. The action can be launched if the results of previous script runs have been previously received and saved. You can save the results of previous launches by selecting the "Save results" checkbox in the debug panel.

Example 2. Successful launch

Task: there is a robot that displays messages in dialogue windows. It is necessary to start performing the robot with step 2.

Realisation:

  • Enable saving results with the "Save results" checkbox and start the robot.

  • Right-click on the "Show message 2" action and click on "Start from".

  • The performance of the robot will start with the specified action.
