Nintex RPA Robot Installation

To access the RPA Robot installation file:

1. Navigate to Customer Central.

2. Click on Product Releases from the left menu.

3. Select Nintex RPA in the search boxes.

4. Click the Download/Access icon for the latest available RPA version.

   

5. Navigate to the Client/ folder on the directed website.

   The available list of downloads will vary depending on your selected version.

   

When installing the Nintex RPA Server installer, the installer generates JSON files that contain a list of parameters with predefined values, by default at: C:\Nintex\RPA Clients.

After the server installation is complete, move the JSON Source Files to the same location as the RPA client installer files (MSI or EXE files) and edit the JSON file parameters as needed.

When you start the client installer wizard, it will read the parameters from the JSON file and automatically populate the values in the installer input fields. By clicking the Customize button in the installation wizard, you can see that the input values are the same as in the JSON file.

Without configuring the JSON file parameters, it is still possible to change these values by editing the user input fields in the installer user interface during customization.

Once you have edited your JSON file parameters according to your organization's needs, run the installation wizard for your downloaded RPA Robot.

To begin the installation wizard with the default parameters:

1. Run the Nintex Robot EXE file as an administrator.

   

2. Start the installation wizard.

   

3. Click Next after the System check.

   

4. Click Next after the Installation details are listed.

   If you are installing with the default settings, Skip will be automatically input next to the services that are currently installed on your machine.
   If you would like to edit settings or review JSON parameter changes, select and follow these steps.

   

5. Click Install after selecting the installation folder location.

   

6. The wizard executes the installation. Click Close when the installation is complete.
