Hello @sarmanickam 

The Blue Prism Learning Edition is feature limited and does not support the use of the Blue Prism API.

The Blue Prism API is something that is optionally deployed alongside the full Blue Prism Enterprise application.

Best of luck with your internal project

To clarify a bit on Chris' answer... the Control Room API is essentially an optional plugin for the Blue Prism HUB. 

You would need a separate server running HUB and all of its dependencies (i.e. Authentication Server,  RabbitMQ, etc.) to be configured first, and then have another server to set up the Blue Prism API, and configure it with your HUB.

What you are describing (executing commands on a resource remotely), could also be achieved using the ResourcePC HTTP interface.

You can read more about it here:
ResourcePC HTTP interface (blueprism.com)

And a list of available commands here:
