Now a days data extraction from a web page or web table is very easy by all other RPA tools. It is available separately in all the tools. I have raised it earlier as well to add similar kind of feature in BP. Now the way BP is extracting data from web page or web table, it's very very difficult. As I see there are lot of feature being added in recent version, please consider this one. Data scrapping is a missing feature in Blue Prism. Blue Prism Enterprise v7

Users should have the ability to clear the value selected from a dropdown field especially from non-mandatory dropdowns if user selects a value accidentally, currently it forces user to select a value from dropdown instead leaving it as blank. Usually, dropdowns add a blank value to the list of values which gives the user the ability to set the dropdown to blank.

It would be very useful to classify or to filter Environment Variables for example by processes because to handle lot of process and lot of Environment Variables very difficult.

Processors are finding it difficult to search for currency values with Quick Search because the lookup is comparing the user's search value to the raw database value. E.g, if a LOB field is defined with a max length of 15, a user wanting to search for $500.50 would need to enter 000000000050050. Since processors don’t have access to field definitions, they don’t know how many leading zeros to add. Suggestion: Check for currency fields and trim leading zeros on the backend.

Feedback from our processors: Request: Using the quick search lookup we are able to save lookups, however if one of the ‘Fields’ need updating, we cannot edit it, we have to delete the field from the query and re enter it. Are we able to make it editable instead. This will allow for day to day search to be made easier, particularly ones that the date needs to be altered every day for – streamlining our processing times.

With Search forms and potentially and Chorus form designed for work processing whether UXBuilder, Dynamic Forms, or Traditional forms the ability to denote a one of these are required. My thought on implementation would be to contain the fields within a group box and mark the box with a css class of oneOfThese. There could be multiple group boxes with independent oneOfThese markers. This was implemented as custom javascript on a Search form that required a hidden text input that was marked required that the custom javascript managed inputting/clearing to get the Search button enabled/disabled appropriately.

Add the functionality to be able to move stages within the process & object studio using the arrow keys on a keyboard. Currently the only way to move stages is by using the mouse and this can prove difficult when attempting to move and restructure sections of a process/object. The application doesn't respond well to moving stages with a mouse and can lag making it difficult to move and align with other stages of a process/object. Adding functionality to move with arrow keys would enable us to move stages with more precision and in a user friendly way.

Currently, the Exception Types are created by users manually typing into the combo box within the Exception Stage's properties.
This often leads to multiplication of the same exception type due to typos, misunderstandings, etc.
Example below:
This in turn becomes a nightmare when it comes to reporting, as often a hard set rule cannot be followed for extrapolating these from the overall pot.
I suggest removing the ability to add new exception types by typing into the combo box, and instead make it a privileged action within the System settings.
For example within the already existing Exception Type screen:
This could be done by implementing an "Add new exception type" action on the side panel, below the already existing "Scan processes"

As we transition to Processor Workspace we noticed there isn't an option to Clear AWD Web Cache (as there was in Classic Workspace). Once we start using Processor this option is no longer available to Users. Could we have this option added to Processor Workspace to match what was available in Classic Workspace?

Add visual markers or color-coded highlights in the timeline to indicate where filter-triggering events occur, enabling users to quickly identify and navigate to these critical points without manual scanning. Without this feature: currently Users have to manually review each timeline to locate trigger events, leading to inefficiencies, missed insights, and reduced satisfaction with the tool. Goal: enable faster and more accurate identification of filtered events, improving user experience, boosting adoption, and accelerating decision-making.

Introduce functionality to filter timeline events based on designated points, allowing users to view only events that occur before or after a specified event (e.g., show the journey after a letter X is issued). Without this feature: users face difficulties isolating relevant parts of the timeline for analysis, leading to slower insights, increased manual effort, and a less efficient user experience.

Hello BP Team, When looking at the logs or navigating through pages, along with the Previous and Next page buttons there should have option to go to last page or skip to a certain page. I've had to skip through 40+ individual pages of log data. This is not the most user friendly. At this point we' have already had examples of 500+ pages. How do we navigate through this and find what we need? It's already an issue internally here that we cannot export any reporting from Next Gen. This has posed a challenge early on with our Next Gen experience. Thank you,

Although the setting 'start a personal runtime resource on this machine when users sign in to Blue Prism' affects the whole environment and I assume it is rarely used (why would someone start BP to make it act as a runtime resource that then takes over the workplace?! why not start the process directly in Studio or send it to a dedicated runtime resource?!). By default (at least in 6.9 not sure about 7.3.x yet) each user will register his workplace as possible runtime resource, mixing it with dedicated runtime resources and needs to be removed manually. Having a private runtime resource start when starting BP UI may also cause issues with network ports and other system resources. Currently the only option to deactivate the 'start a personal runtime resource' is to login into BP and change it manually, on each workplace/resource, which can only be done with BP admin rights, so users are not even able to change settings for their own workplace. Some ideas on how to improve the situation: make the 'personal runtime resource' disabled by default make it a system wide setting allow users to change this setting for their own workplace have this setting easily changeable in an automated way. eg via CLI, config file (that can be amended during install process) make it a centrally managed feature of a runtime resource/workplace similar to eg logging levels that can be changed in System\Resources\Management any other possible idea that might help but is not listed here

Using Communications to send emails, I need the ability to auto-populate multiple CC recipients rather than only being able to auto-populate the recipient and one CC Recipient. In the manually process I can only add additional CC recipients from the document delivery screen but cannot store or capture those recipients in the process. With automated emails I can only send multiple emails to include more that one CC Recipient.

We have commissioned a client-facing portal to give our clients the ability to log cases in our Chorus system and a requirement has been raised by a client who has seen the suggested solution demonstrated: they require that when they have created or updated a case in the portal they can then generate a summary of all the details they have entered and the documents they have uploaded. They would like the summary to be in the form of a PDF that they could then download and store in their own system. Ideally the summary would be generated on user request.

Problem Statement: Currently we have a number of use cases which require Python scripts to complete specific NLE activity or to support with the management of files such as: encrypting/ decrypting with specific PGP keys converting protected PDF documents to unprotected, editable and readable documents for OCR extraction managing multiple PDF documents such as deleting pages, merging documents These scripts are currently utilised as standalone py files which are triggered via Blue Prism; but not within Blue Prism. Proposed Solution: Include Python as a supported language within Blue Prism code stages Provide Python as an installable supporting application alongside core Blue Prism product installer Provide the ability to run 'pip install' to obtain dependencies for scripts all within Blue Prism.

Using CDOC, we need the ability to request and resubmit a previously completed communications document using the same recipient block. Allow Communications to automatically resend the document that was originally sent or mailed to the recipient after XX number of days based on logic that is built within the Process Model. More importantly, if the original document was edited before being created in Communications (ie. Insert Content) we want those edits to be included in any additional attempts. Currently, if we try to automate a 2nd delivery of a document, Communications will send the document, but any edits that were made to the original document from the first attempt are not being captured. (See attached screen shots) We would like Communications to function like Encorr did in terms of sending a copy of the original document, including any edits that were made.

It would be beneficial to designers integrating with REST services to natively provide instructive messages for connectivity exceptions. OpenApi/Swagger describes http response codes but not java exceptions outside normal http flow. For example this exception is captured for connection errors: com.dstawd.processengine.model.flowobjects.AutomatedActivityFlowObject.executeService(ProcessInstance, String, String, Element): Service failed to execute. Error: java.lang.IllegalAccessException: The response object is javax.ws.rs.ProcessingException, not an fastrequirementsapi.ApiException Service Error Stack: It would be beneficial for these types of errors to expose the actual java exception or a friendlier message to the designer. This information can be found in log files that typical designers do not have access to.
