Posted on by DanielSkogvik

When I run unattended RPA flow against my laptop, I get the following error message:

{
 "error": {
 "code": "LogonTypeNotGranted",
 "message": "Cannot create a session to run an unattended desktop flow. The system administrator has restricted the types of logon (network or interactive) that the user may use. For assistance, contact your system administrator or techincal support."
 }
}

Everything is setup and working great in attended mode. It is just when trying to run in unattended mode that is seems there are something with my user account that needs to change for it to work?

A bit of a basic question, but, do you have the unattended licence?

@Pavel_NaNoi I am also getting the same error and the organisation has provided unattended rpa add-on on top of power automate premium license. Any pointers?

Huh this is an oldie, man time sure flies, anyways:

Make sure that whatever machine you're running the automation on has no one logged into it, especially if it has multiple user accounts. Always Log off it after testing rather than disconnecting / shutting down.

Another reason for this is as the error states, the account that is logging in doesn't have permissions of some sort, perhaps the security is interferring with the UIFlowService.exe process? It's responsible for the connection between the cloud and desktop.

Also check your machine settings on that machine in Power Automate Desktop, see if it throws any other errors related to any connections to your cloud envrionment.

Finally if all else fails, check if perhaps someone put in an over-restrictive DLP policy in the admin centre for Power Automate Desktop for some reason? Though unlikely.
