Free Trial for SAP Intelligent Robotic Process Automation (RPA)

[former_member231153]

*Check out this updated blog post about onboarding the SAP BTP Trial for SAP Intelligent RPA*

 

Long awaited, now available! 

We are happy to start the year 2020 with announcing that there is a free trial for SAP Intelligent RPA! 

Now, you have the chance to try automating your own scenarios in a free trial mode of the solution. 

The trial mode is available on these components:

Desktop Studio
Desktop Agent
Cloud Factory / Studio

There are some quotas and limitations for the SAP Intelligent RPA trial described in SAP Note 2870643. 

Take note that the trial is limited to data centers: AWS EU10 and AWS US10. 

For specifications and a detailed documentation about the trial mode, also check the product documentation on SAP Help Portal. 

Follow these steps to get started: 

1. Get your SAP BTP trial account. 

2. Follow the steps to get a global account and subaccount in the BTP trial landscape. 

3. Subscribe to the SAP Intelligent RPA tile.

Make sure to follow the substeps to

• 
  
  
  
  • Establish a trust configuration
  
  
  • Configure and assign a role collection
  
  
  
  

Note: The easiest way in the trial environment is to assign all role templates to a single collection (this is not recommended in production environments!). You can do so by filtering on your SAP Intelligent RPA Application Identifier and selecting all roles to be added.

4. Follow this link to download the on-premise components: (scroll down to the bottom of the page)



Please download the latest available version. For SAP Intelligent RPA 2.0 and thus the usage of Cloud Studio, only the installation of the Desktop Agent component is required.

SAP Intelligent RPA on-premise components are available for MS Windows. For other operating systems, a Windows virtual machine is required.

Please also ensure that the browser extension is running in your web browser. See Configuring Web Browser.

5. Please follow these steps to establish a connection between your Desktop Agent and the SAP Intelligent RPA Cloud Factory: Desktop Agent Tenant Registration.

The URL of your SAP Intelligent Robotic Process Automation Factory Trial tenant looks like this: https://xxxxxxxxtrial.app.irpa-trial.cfapps.eu10.hana.ondemand.com/.

6. Done! Now, you can start building your bots keeping in mind the limitations and quotas of the SAP Intelligent RPA free trial that are described in SAP Note 2870643.

Hi Lena,

 

Thank you very much for the blog. However, I also get the "insufficient resource error"  when I start the application in my trial account CP. Moreover, I can not download the on-premise components due to the following error :

An error occurred while processing your request.

Reference #30.8c6ddead.1578494282.6cf67efb

 

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Hi,

You have to create the "IRPA Administrator" role and to associate it with your account.

[PierreCol]

Hi,

For the "“insufficient resource" error message when accessing Cloud Factory, you have to create the "IRPA Administrator" role and to associate it with your account.

[PierreCol]

Hi,

For the step by step process to activate your Free trial, you can also refer to this blog post including screenshots for each step:

[MaiaraEllwanger]

Hi Rahul,

you need to create the IRPA Administrator role and associate it with your account.

Take a look into 2802932 - "Factory could not be loaded insufficient_scope: Insufficient scope for this resource" for the steps.

Best,

Maiara

[former_member588288]

It worked!

Thanks Pierre

Hi Lena

Thanks for sharing this.

I am facing some issue in executing PO_Confirmation bot. After i have installed the desktop agent and setup my Cloud Factory account, I imported the PO_confirmation package for OP and deployed it.

After i had setup the trigger  as Attendent_02 and also in the desktop agent selected the interactive mode still i do not get the project in the agent to start. Please help to provide clues to troubleshoot the issue. Am I missing some step here.

warm regards,

Virendar Kaushal

 

 

[former_member231153]

Hi Karthikeyan, there is no configuration needed for the agent. Did you do the tenant registration? Regards, Lena

[former_member231153]

Hello folks,

Hi Lena,

Is there a provision to add/import SAP provided bots e.g., Automatic Creation of Sales Orders from Excel (‏4G5‏) (from SAP BPE) into the trial space?

Thanks,

Surya

 

[Jerome]

Hi,

 

It seems this issue is due to the fact that the version of the package you're trying to import is too old. There is a Note about it :

https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/2849305

 

Regards,

J.

[Jerome]

Hi,

 

Did you correctly register your agent on the Factory ? Do you see your agent in Idle state in the Monitoring > Agent tab in the Factory ?

[former_member588288]

It worked!

Thanks Jerome

[former_member231153]

Hi Surya,

the bots provided on the S/4HANA Best Practices Explorer can be deployed in trial version as well as production. Please try it out. Cheers, Lena

[former_member391435]

Hi Lena,

I am facing the same issue. When I click on desktop agent,  I am getting the blank dialog popup screen so we are unable to do tenant registration.  Kindly advise.

[former_member391435]

Hi Lena, Is this require additional license since we are unable to see the bot download content on the S/4HANA Best Practices Explorer except configuration guide and test script ? Kindly advise.

[satya11719]

Thanks  lena.grothaus ..Waiting from long time ... Thanks to let us Play 🙂

[former_member231153]

https://answers.sap.com/questions/12961194/blank-screen-when-opening-desktop-agent-in-sap-irp.html

[i322874]

Good information 🙂

[former_member231153]

I just added a video on how to use the trial! Hope you like it.

[former_member23454]

Into Workflow, I added a popup after double-click It returns message :

Message:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

TargetSite:
Void <.ctor>b__4_0(System.Object, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs)

Source:
CxFrameworkWPF

HResult:

is there a solution?

[former_member231153]

Please add this one as separate question here, so more people can act on it.

[former_member23454]

Yes, I have already posted the question there. Is this error caused from my side or is it due to internal issue in desktop studio?

[former_member460034]

Hi Lena,

Thanks for the sharing.

I'm stuck with captured data, i can not add any item to criteria (there is no option for that - dblclck does not work either), any idea?



Thanks,

Akin
