Blue prism unable to connect with InfoPath using code stage

uncki2 — Thu, 24 Aug 2023 10:52:37 GMT

Dear Community,

I am trying to connect to InfoPath application using code stage with the help of info path dll. Point to be taken note is that info path application is not installed in the system. We are trying to connect just using dll. Please see the namespaces and code used(taken from Microsoft website : External automation scenarios and examples) and run time error as well.

Namespace

Code Stage

Error

Have anyone tried the same i.e. to connect info path using dll without installing the application? Any pointers will be greatly appreciated. 🙂

Hi Kishlay Singh,

I have never tried to connect InfoPath, But I would try couple of ways:
1) Give only the dll name instead of whole path and make sure to restart the BP before trying.

2) If the first approach is not working create a new folder inside BLue Prism folder and dump all the dll's there and point the whole path in the code stage name spaces and give a try.

Hi @Harish Mogulluri,

Thanks for the response.

I tried both the approach you suggested but unfortunately, no luck.
Do you know if Infopath application needs to be installed to use the dll?

Thanks!
