## Adding Users to Run Unattended Robots

**Execute in the terminal:**

* Open "Control Center" → "User Management";
* Initial setup for:

  * Adding a shortcut for Sherpa Assistant,
  * Adding shortcuts to startup for Unattended robots,
  * Specifying the Orchestrator server for Unattended robots,
  * Specifying the GUID of Robots for Unattended robot accounts.

  You must first create accounts on which the Unattended robots will run:

  * Make the post-configure file executable:

  `sudo chmod a+x /usr/lib/sherpa-robot/post-configure/post-configure`

  * Run the post-configure file with administrator rights:

  `sudo /usr/lib/sherpa-robot/post-configure/post-configure`

You will see the main menu with commands:

1. The command creates shortcuts for Sherpa Assistant on the desktop, as well as in the "Start" → "Development" menu.
2. The command removes shortcuts for Sherpa Assistant.
3. The command creates a shortcut in the User's startup to launch the Unattended robot.
4. The command removes the shortcut to launch the Unattended robot.
5. The command allows you to enter the Orchestrator server and specify the GUID of Robots.

All commands can be executed either for all accounts or selectively:

## Installing Yandex Browser

To enable the Robot to work with Yandex Browser, you need to install a plugin.

This action needs to be performed for each account separately.

* Log into the account.
* Open the browser and go to the "Extensions" section.
* Launch the file manager and navigate to the folder:

```
/usr/lib/sherpa-robot/Chrome
```

* Drag the file plugin.crx into the browser window.
* Add the extension and close the browser.
* Open a terminal window in the current folder:

```
./install_host.sh
```

* Launch the browser.

If the Sherpa RPA plugin icon has turned blue, the plugin has been successfully installed.

The plugin can also be installed from the website:

{% embed url="<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sherpa-rpa/bdnlfnchnkjeempadnmcgbbkbacffobl>" %}

And then perform steps 4, 5, 6, and 7.

## Installing Chromium

To enable the Robot to work with Chromium, you need to install a plugin:

* Go to the link:

{% embed url="<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sherpa-rpa/bdnlfnchnkjeempadnmcgbbkbacffobl>" %}

* Install the plugin.
* Navigate to the folder:

```
 /home/user/sherpa-robot/Chrome
```

* Open a terminal window in the current folder:

  * Make the install\_host.sh script executable:

  `chmod +x install_host.sh`

  * Run the install\_host.sh script:

  `./install_host.sh`

  * Copy the JSON configuration file for Native Messaging extensions from Chrome to Chromium:

  `cp -f $HOME/.config/google-chrome/NativeMessagingHosts/processagent.sherparpa.json $HOME/.config/chromium/NativeMessagingHosts`
* Launch the browser.

If the Sherpa RPA plugin icon has turned blue, the plugin has been successfully installed.
