Abstract

Automation of a process running in a first session via robotic process automation (RPA) robot(s) running in a second session is disclosed. In some aspects, a form is displayed in a user session, but one or more attended RPA robots that retrieve and/or interact with data for an application in the first session run in one or more other sessions. In this manner, the operation of the RPA robot(s) may not prevent the user from using other applications or instances when the RPA robot(s) are running, but the data modifications made or facilitated by the RPA robot(s) may be visible to the user in the first session window.
