I. INTRODUCTION
akaBot is at the forefront of transforming the future of robotic process automation. The
software is designed to serve businesses of different sizes. For businesses with a high
volume of human labor, akaBot provides a reliable technology that adds impetus to their
innovation and profitability.
This document aims to give you a step-by-step instruction on how to install akaBot

installation, you can install the components in any order, on the same or different
machines, as you wish. However, for activation, you will need to activate Center first,
before moving on to activate Studio & Agent. Please follow this document for details on
installation.
Once installation is completed, please proceed to activate the components. License key
for Center is provided in the Licensing Email. License key for Agent & Studio can be
acquired from Center. More details on Activation is attached in Licensing Email.
Thank you and Enjoy automating with akaBot!

1. Database Credentials (Created from Step 3.12). If you use the default
Credentials (root / sis@12345), you will not have to update this.
2. Database URL: Change the initial part of the URL (See Picture below).
It should be
[IP Address of the machine with akaBot Center]:3306/[Database Name].For example, if your Machine’s IP Address is 10.16.20.16, Database Name is aka_orchestrator, then the
Database URL should be changed to jdbc:mysql:// 10.16.20.16:3306/aka_orchestrator/...
