TaskSultan documentation

Everything you need to build, run and operate TaskSultan automations. Start with what the platform is, then follow the area you are working in.

TaskSultan builds robotic process automation from code. You describe or demonstrate a process, the platform writes a TypeScript automation and the Robot runs it on a machine you control. The Studio, the diagram and the recorder are views of that code, never a second copy of it.

If you have not used the platform before, read What TaskSultan is and then Install. Both take a few minutes and leave you with something running.

  2. Install gets the platform onto your machine.
  3. Your first automation builds and runs one.

#About these docs

Every page describes what the platform does today. Where something is unfinished, the page says so. Where two ways of doing a thing exist, the page says which one we recommend and why. The vocabulary is the product's own: a Target is a named element, a Transaction is one unit of work, a Run is one execution of one automation.
