Share user account between Test and Prod Windows 10 PAD machines?

[kelway]

Hello All,

I've finally convinced our CIO to migrate away from our current RPA solution to Power Automate with Power Automate Desktop.

We have a single Active Directory account on our domain. I plan to license it so that we have the user license and unattended license for that user.

Would it be possible to use that user on both a TEST installation (Windows 10 VM in Azure) and our PROD installation (Windows 10 VM in Azure)? I need to be sure that I could have scheduled unattended processes running while developing and testing new PAD programs on the test installation...with no negative impact / interaction.

Is this possible? 

Thanks,

Kel

Yes. That should not be a problem.

HOWEVER: Be advised that the $150 Unattended RPA add-on is not added to the user, but added to a Power Automate Environment.

Hello Henrick,

Thank you very much. I now understand that the 150 Unattended RPA add-on is a per-concurrent-bot charge.
