Environment Variable extraction

[harshilmehta]

It would be really helpful to have extract feature for Environment variables within Blue Prism. Right now the only way we can do is from SQL Server and playing with raw database is not safe. So built-in functionality to extract env variable table would be great!

In Addition, How about having the environment variables tagged to processes those can use it?
Currently changes to ENV Variables are not logged in any tables. Can we have a mechanism to track the changes to ENV variables by means of an audit log. Who changed it?, What was the change and at what time it was changed will be a great addition to data security and auditing.

Hello @Harshil Mehta

Thank you for raising, I set the Idea Status to Delivered with Blue Prism 7.2, by providing the capability to extract the Environment Variable data via the Blue Prism API.

Blue Prism 7.2 includes:

• Environment Variables API – Setup and manage environment variables, enabling the capability to move data between environments. Enables IT systems to notify the digital workforce that external systems are not available to automate; and provides the capability to search and filter the environment data.

Further information:

• What’s new in 7.2, including enhancements to the Blue Prism API
• Online Help: Blue Prism API 7.2, which includes Blue Prism API reference
• Blue Prism 7.2 API specification: https://bpdocs.blueprism.com/bp-7-2/en-us/bp-api/7-2/api-spec-7-2-0.html#tag/Environment-Variables
