## About this task

A robot runs a bot process \(automation\).

Attended robots can execute attended automations that require human intervention. Using the Attended Robot application, you can run an attended robot to execute the attended bot process \(attended automations\).

An attended robot is mapped to only one user.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Robotic Process Automation** > **RPA Hub Workspace**.
