Add a project to a solution

To add a project to a solution, select File > New > Project. On the New Project dialog, to select a template for the project and define the project name. You can choose from these project templates:

Pega Robotics Project – Select this template to create a project containing a blank automation.
Empty Pega Robotic Automation Project – Select this template to create a empty project container with no other project items.

Note: In version 19.1.43 and later, you can also use the New Project wizard to create a project. For more information, see Creating a project using the New Project wizard.

The New Project dialog includes these fields:

Field	Description
Name	Specify the name of the project. By default, the name is project appended by a number. For example, if this is the first project you are creating, the default is project1.
Location	Use this field to set the location for the solution and project files. By default, the location of the solution and project files are in the user's C:\Users\username\Documents\Pega Robotics Studio\Projects folder.
Solution Name	Displays a name for the solution that contains the new project. If this is a new solution, enter a solution name and make sure the Create directory for the solution field is checked. This tells the system to create a folder (named as the solution) under the Location entry and add the new project file (named as the project) to that folder. In addition, a projectname.user file is created and these folders are created: bin – The location for debug and release files created as part of build obj – The location for temporary object files created as part of build Properties – Contains the ImportTypeMap.resx and Resources.resx files An automation.os file is also created if you choose the Pega Robotic Automation Project template. You can also add a Robot Studio project to an existing solution. In this case, make sure the Create directory for the solution box is not checked.
