Establish a connection between the Attended Robot and the ServiceNow
RPA Hub instance.
Watch this video to learn about the configuration of Attended Robot.

## Before you begin

Install the Attended Robot. For more information, see [Install Attended Robot](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/aC_TA_Km~z7dc8CtJKpyRA "You can install the Attended Robot application in your Windows machine if you have the admin role.").

Role required: none

## About this task

Do this task when you're setting up the Attended Robot for the first time
unless you're changing the RPA Hub instance.

If the Attended Robot is launched when the RPA Desktop Design Studio is open in your Windows machine and a new profile is added to the
Attended Robot Connection Manager, it does not reflect in the RPA Desktop Design Studio Connection Manager. If a new profile is added to
the RPA Desktop Design Studio Connection Manager, the entry that you added in
the Attended Robot Connection Manager is overwritten. In such scenarios,
restart RPA Desktop Design Studio when a profile is added in the Attended Robot Connection Manager.

## Procedure

1. From your desktop, double-click the Attended Robot icon (![Attended Robot icon.]()).
2. In the Connection Manager dialog box, to add a new RPA Hub, select Add New.  
   Do this step when you're setting up the Attended Robot for the first time unless you're changing the RPA Hub instance.
3. In the Add ServiceNow Instance Details dialog box, fill in the fields.
