Robotic process automation (RPA) is a software technology that combines robotics and automation to perform repetitive tasks. RPA is a method for business process automation that uses an application or ‘bot’ that replicates an employee's desktop actions by interacting with an interface in the same way a human would.

RPA is used across industries to automate repetitive business tasks. Most often these use screen scraping as well as other automation techniques to move data from one system or application to another or perform an action.

Because RPA is mainly used for tedious, manual tasks — it is commonly used in roles, functions and business units that spend significant time on these types of processes.

Many people often think that RPA and APIs compete with one another — seeing as APIs allow the systems and datasets to be integrated while RPA scraps the data from one system to another. However, there are situations where an API-led approach could collaborate with RPA as a mechanism to broaden the scope of integration and enable access to more endpoints.

Where business process automation is not yet possible for an API-led approach, RPA may be used. Some examples of this are:

  • A system lacks an API, such as a legacy or on-premises application or a system that is heavily customised for the organisation.
  • There is either delayed investment or lack of investment in the creation of an API for an endpoint — where RPA can be used as a stopgap for temporary access to the system.
  • There are different teams managing automation and integration.
