1 yes  
2 yes  
3 yes  
4 using workitem queues is the best in 99% of cases, but if you really want live status, this is the only way ( but you can also combined it, use workitem queues for transactional state AND talk to the robots for status )  
5 No. But you can find information “scattered” around on this forum,  
like [Can we see OpenRPA logs in OpenFlow](https://discourse.openiap.io/t/can-we-see-openrpa-logs-in-openflow/129) and [Start BOT via API call - #2 by Allan\_Zimmermann](https://discourse.openiap.io/t/start-bot-via-api-call/762/2)
