Pega Robot Studio 22.1

Pega Robot Studio is a low-code development environment for designing, testing, and deploying robotic automations that streamline work across desktop, web, and legacy systems. It enables teams to build both attended (robotic desktop) and unattended (RPA) bots using a visual, event-driven approach, reducing manual effort and improving accuracy.

The studio uses adapters to interrogate and automate a wide range of applications, including Windows and web apps, Java, SAP, mainframe (via terminal emulators), and Citrix-hosted sessions. Projects are packaged for deployment to Pega Robot Runtime clients and can be centrally governed, versioned, and monitored through Pega Robot Manager when used in a Pega environment.

Key capabilities:

• Visual, drag-and-drop designer with reusable components and templates
• Attended and unattended automation for end-to-end or user-in-the-loop scenarios
• Robust UI interrogation and selectors, with exception handling and retry logic
• Connectors for REST/SOAP services, databases, and other enterprise systems
• Integrated debugging and testing tools (breakpoints, step-through, logging)
• Secure credential handling and policy-based controls
• Centralized deployment, versioning, and operational monitoring
• Support for virtualized environments (e.g., Citrix) and legacy interfaces
• Team development with compatibility for standard source control workflows

Typical usage includes automating repetitive desktop tasks, integrating siloed systems without invasive changes, and orchestrating multi-application workflows to accelerate processing and improve compliance. Pega Robot Studio runs on Windows and is geared toward .NET-based automation projects.
