Rolling Average Robot Task Times

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

UiPath Automation Cloud stores execution telemetry for attended and unattended robots. Write a PostgreSQL query that reports the rolling average execution time for each robot across its current execution and two preceding completed executions.

Requirements

  1. Join robots with robot_task_executions and return the robot name, execution identifier, start time, and execution duration.
  2. Include only executions with status = 'completed' and a non-NULL execution duration.
  3. Calculate a three-row rolling average separately for each robot, ordered by started_at and then execution_id to break timestamp ties.
  4. Return the results in robot and chronological execution order.
