There is no option to view all the values of an item in the Queue Contents view.
Currently you can only see the item key.
To be able to analyse the contents of an item, I must start a process and call "Get Next Item".
It would be helpful to place a button next to or in the Item Key column that allows you to see the content of the respective item.
A list view would be good too, so that you have an overview of all items with the associated item values.
Viewing the item's values should be restricted by access rights, as items may contain information that should not be accessible to everyone.

As a user of ROS I need the ability to save the document to chorus using a keyboard shortcut (hot key such as control + s). The document should remain open. The save to chorus button on the plug in closes the document. This means the user constantly must reopen the document to continue with the editing.

It would be good to have the option to check/uncheck a selection of processes or objects being imported through a release. For example a change went into production recently which had a bug in it but a backup of the process wasnt taken from production before the new one went in causing an issue in rolling back the change. As a rule we take a full production back up at the end of every week so we could import this release but as it includes EVERYTHING it meant a good bit of time during the import where we had to select whether the process/object was to be imported or not imported, since we only needed one process imported it was a real hassle. If we had a check box to select/unselect all we could select only the ones we need to import without having to go through the drop down selection for each process and object.

Even though we have scheduler it would be nice if we can start a process trought a trigger in queues. Basically when a queue as items we should be able to automaticaly start a process. The only way we can do this right now is if we have a robot checking new queue items , this makes the machine and resourse always unavaliable but there are no cases being worked.

In Blue Prism, this functionality would be implemented as an action within a business object that allows jobs to "release" their digital worker licenses when a higher-priority job is pending. Essentially, the action would enable the job to place itself back into the queue, allowing more urgent tasks to be processed without disruption. Having transitioned from UiPath to Blue Prism, I’m bringing a feature I previously custom-built in UiPath, which I found to be immensely beneficial. In our previous framework, we had a system where low-priority jobs could run throughout the day, but if a higher-priority task emerged and required a license, the lower-priority job would temporarily give up its license and return to the queue. The code would do this checking every time a new queue item was picked up. This behavior was seamlessly integrated into our framework, allowing our processes to communicate dynamically with the control room. The ability to manage this flow, where jobs could intelligently pause for higher-priority tasks, ensured better resource allocation and process efficiency without needing manual intervention. This feature enhanced our automation framework by offering flexibility in job scheduling.

Currently when configuring a web api, the response for an action always expects the data type to be text: this proves particularly troublesome when the output is an inline image or binary file, as when such data is saved within a text variable, it cuts off some bytes during the process, rendering the content useless. Can this please be modified to allow selecting the expected data type for the response content when the payload is not in JSON format.

Each version of Blue Prism should display tooltips and highlight new features when installed for the first time. This is a common practice in many tools, as not all users will thoroughly read the release notes or actively explore every new feature. It is the responsibility of the product developers to incorporate such tooltips within the software to ensure users are informed and encouraged to try out the new features.

Hi, Please provide more useful options in Decipher IDP Misc Parameters., for example: 1. If I don't want to read a header/footer in a pdf file, an option should be available where i can select On or Off for decipher to not capture the info. 2. if I have a table with 4 columns and I only want to read column 1 and column 3 then should have option of which I can set the columns which Decipher shouldn't identify the regions. 3. Provide proper examples with description for all the available options (Format Expression, formulas etc.,)

Since the core utilities and objects no longer included when you install Blue Prism (BP), I think it would be very helpful if the DX tab in BP could display the core utilities for download and provide an option to import them directly, rather than redirecting you to the Dx platform. I'm aware that the Blue Prism team is constantly adding features and fixing bugs in the core objects. Therefore, showing the last update of the core object that the client has and providing the option to update to the latest version would be a significant improvement. I work in different environments using BP 7.1, but some core objects are from previous versions (e.g., 6.2) and have not been updated. When I requested the installation of a new Core object (such as the MS Word VBO), they complied. However, I then noticed there were approximately five different core objects with the same name. Which one was the latest? It's unclear until you examine each object individually, searching for the required action.

The Inbox allows users to sort / filter on various fields, however, as soon as the user navigates away from the Inbox then any applied filters etc. are reset. It would improve the user's experience if these settings could be saved / stored. For example, a user may change the number of rows displayed from the default 5 to 25, sort by oldest to newest and then filter for a certain form / key value but this is then reset as soon as they open a form.

We would like the ability to automate the hopping of in-flight work to the latest deployed version of the process model associated to the Business Area / Work Type. In seeing how each user task within a process model is associated to a back-end identifier (GUID), there would be a match for the same GUID on any newly deployed version of that process model. All active work on the previously deployed version of the process model to be transferred to the corresponding GUID on the latest deployed version of that model. The Scenario: A business request is received to update/fix an existing process model with a change to routing attributes (for example). The process model is updated with changes to a particular gateway and deployed as the newest version to that BA/WT. Given Statements: All the work objects created prior to the deploying of the latest version remains on the previously deployed version. The changes to the gateway on the newest version do not apply to any active work objects created on the previous version. The only options at this time: inform the business that the latest changes to the process model will only apply to newly created work objects (date-specific) and that any in-flight work is to remain on the old process model. or the workflow administrator can manually hop (pause existing tasks on previously deployed process model version and resume on corresponding task on the latest deployed version) Some Limitations: There are some restrictions to manually hopping (pause/resuming via Monitor) work from old to new: Once a work object is "paused" by a workflow admin: any pending timer expiry attributes are lost any suspension activate attributes are lost any user assignments are lost For larger process models that have numerous user tasks, this task of manually hopping could be resource intensive (although it depends on the scenario as well). A monthly deployment cadence where process models could be deployed once a month is not as bad. For process models that have nested sub-processes (could be various levels deep), the manual process of hopping work objects from tasks within a nested sub-process out to the same user task that is nested in a different version of the process model is also labor intensive and requires a methodical approach (where to pause on parent process prior to resuming, etc.). The Ask: Provide functionality within the Monitoring tool (or elsewhere) to automate the hopping of active work objects to the latest deployed version of the process model associated to the BA/WT. Hop work from and to the same user task (as identified by the GUID) on the newest deployed process model version (if a GUID match is found). For each work object that is hopped, as applicable: retain and reapply the timer expiry attributes retain and reapply the suspension activate attributes retain and reapply user assignments For work objects on the old model that are in a user task that does not exist on the newly deployed model (no GUID match), these work objects are left as-is on the old model and is flagged to the workflow admin (via report or through the Monitor interface, identifying those that were not hopped, requiring manual review/action). Provide the ability for workflow admin to select which processes to apply the hopper automation as there may be situations where hopper automation would not be required, for example, the newly deployed process model is a complete overhaul (user tasks deleted, etc.). History: Prior to our upgrade to Chorus (previously on AWD SP8.8), we had an in-house SQL script that would fulfill the above functionality. With each month's release, we would include the execution of the process model hopper within our deployment runbook. For the past decade, this script executed without flaw and workflow administrators did not have to manually hop work from previous to newly deployed process model versions with each deployment. The "Active" tab within the workflow admin suite would have the list of all process models deployed, and all work would be always on the latest deployed version (providing ease of work object maintenance as well). However, with the move to Chorus, due to the changes to the back end database tables for work objects, our current scripts utilized with AWD is no longer compatible, and would require a re-write/mapping of GUID, process model version comparisons.

I would like to see an in-build feature in blueprism which will allow me to select 2 things while scheduling or triggering a process:
Retry limit
Defer time
Basically when I run a process on a particular resource or resource pool and none of the resources are available then the process fails. Instead of failing it should consider the retry limit and try to run the process again on the same resource or resource pool after the defer time limit. It will allow the process to wait for some time and let the resource be free.

When a change or update in user profile is made in Chorus (Work Place>User - workgroup) by a designated administrator, the update is not displayed/reflected in My Team in Analytics automatically/simultaneously. The update will only be displayed once the user logs into Chorus. It was confirmed with SS&C that it is working as designed. This design needs to be improved to keep track of the changes with user profiles real time. In the case where a user update has been made and the user is out for two weeks, the My Team will only get updated once this user logs into Chorus. Suggestion: Any changes to user profile in Chorus (i.e. work group) should be reflected/displayed in My Team in Analytics automatically and doesn't need/require for the user to log into Chorus. As Analytics is a tool for data/info about Chorus activities, we expect it to provide accurate information (real time).
