Hi @Kirtish Trivedi,

What version of Blue Prism are you using? I've seen this error in the past, and it's usually tied to loading the release in an older version that doesn't know how to deal with the Password data type.

Cheers,

@Kirtish Trivedi,

Yes, this is an issue with the encryption schema that's used to encrypt the initial value of any Password data items. I think it was BP v6.6 that the internal encryption scheme was changed. I've uploaded an update to the Teams asset on the DX to revert the value of the AccessToken data item to use to encrypted value from the previous encryption scheme. This should load fine in v6.4 and up.

Cheers,

Hi @ewilson, Thanks. I was able to import now. But as per the document, release file contains below things

Web API Service Definition
- Microsoft Graph – Teams
VBO
- Microsoft Graph - Teams Authentication

But I am not able to find the VBO in the release file. Could you please assist ?

Hi Kirtish,

The Authentication VBO is actually a separate asset on the DX as it's used by several of the Graph integrations.

You can find it here.
