Monitor running robots

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi

 

Im currently running multiple robots and have a need to monitor if a robot has stopped working or gone into a loop. When I go to the log of the a running robot I the screen below. This only seems to occur when the robot is running and the log compiles fine afterwards. Is there a way (where I dont have to write to a shared excel-sheet etc.) to monitor running robots?
