RPA by Workato | Automate Legacy Systems Without APIs | Workato
Your orchestration strategy is only as strong as your hardest-to-reach system
Legacy desktop applications
Thick-client applications like SAP GUI and older desktop tools that were built before APIs existed. They hold critical data but offer no programmatic way to get it out or push it in. RPA eliminates the re-keying.
Browser apps without APIs
Internal portals, vendor tools, and web applications that offer no REST endpoints, webhooks, or export options. The data is right there, but locked behind a UI.
Manual workarounds that persist
Teams copying data between screens, re-keying entries, running spreadsheet macros. Processes that eat hours every week because there was no other option. Until now.
Up and running in three steps
Record or script
Use the UI recorder to capture your screen interactions, or write a script in Python or C# for complex tasks.
Connect to a recipe
Wire the RPA process into a Workato recipe alongside your APIs, databases, and SaaS apps.
Orchestrate end to end
Trigger, monitor, and manage everything from one platform. RPA becomes just another step in your orchestration workflow.
Powerful RPA, without the complexity
UI recorder
Record your screen interactions to auto-generate bot steps. The recorder captures clicks, keystrokes, and navigation so you can replay them at scale.
Cloud-based process management
A drag-and-drop interface to automate, monitor, and refine processes. Build bots, manage versions, schedule jobs, and track execution from a single dashboard.
Script support
Write custom logic in Python, C#, or command-line scripts for complex tasks that need precision beyond what the recorder captures.
One platform, every system
RPA runs inside Workato alongside your APIs, databases, and SaaS apps. No separate RPA vendor. No siloed bot management. One orchestration platform.

SAP iRPA scenarios migrated to Workato
Their EDI system only handled 60-70% of orders. The rest required manual download, re-keying, and upload into SAP.
RPA bots now extract and upload PO data directly. A separate bot runs 24/7 payment reconciliation. The same process rolled out across three markets with 80% reuse.
