Many dynamic applications are tough to be automated and while Xpath is more reliable than HTML Path, there is no such option to interact with the elements using the Xpath.

Would be great if BP can upgrade the Code Stage action with IntelliSense/AutoComplete features which is available in Visual Studio/Excel. It'll be helpful to check on the related Functions, Classes, syntax and more. It will ease out the developers work to create their customized objects if required.

It would be nice to have more options for scheduling. Accounting requires different schedules for different working days in the month ie. workday 2 or 4. Currently, I can only schedule on the first or last working day of the month.

Hi, it would be good if the schedule functionality could be amended so that there is no need to wait for all machines to finish a task before moving onto the next task. I believe scheduling would be improved if once any machine has completed a task that machine will move onto the next task.

Currently the Blue Prism Application server cannot be load balanced (use F5 for example). We are required to have 1 server hot and the second cold (service stopped). We should be able to run hot/hot, that is both application servers active at the same time.

We are trying to monitor for work queue items that take longer than they should (e.g. when the application a process is interacting with is hanging). I see a "locktime" (and "lockid") column in the BPAWorkQueueItem table even, but it does not seem to be used. I suggest the time that an item is locked for working be recorded here or somewhere similar. This will facilitate monitoring how long an item has been worked on, even before it is finished, in case it doesn't finish in a timely manner. We looked into using loadtime but that seems to be when the current batch of items was loaded as opposed to when a specific item was picked up by a Get Next Item stage, and worktime seems to be only recorded at the end of an item's work time so it cannot help in the moment.

Our schedulers are starting at 05:30 AM every day. We come in the office at 08:30 AM. Sometimes a resource was not available at 05:30 for several reasons and the scheduler has not started. Becasuse we are living in the time of knowing everything at the time of when it happens via push messages on our phone, we would like to have this option also for the control room and the resources. If there can be an app via your smartphone (or another solution) that sends you a push messages when a resource is down for longer than an amount of time or for no reason, that would be helpful. Maybe this could be done for the proces status also? When one is in status of warning or teminated.

At this moment when a task in a scheduler is no longer relevant, we change the on complete of the previous task. The not-relevant task will still be visible in the scheduler and this is confusing en messy. I understood that removing a task is no option because of the existing archive logs. We would like to have the possibility to retire tasks from the scheduler that are no longer relevant so that the task is not visible in the scheduler anymore.

It would be beneficial to set a Lock release time on environment locks. As an example, you set 5 minutes, if after that time the lock hasn't been released the system will unlock it. This would help in instances where the process may freeze while performing actions and the lock then never gets released unless you manually do it in the system settings or the running resource is rebooted.

I Would love BP to provide an additional tool to manage the CICD. I tried/propose to build a web/windows app based solution for it which has/should have the below features: 1- One time configuration for all environments (Dev,SIT,UAT,Prod). 2- A login option in line with the user's access to BP (planned) 3- As soon as you login, it shows you dropdown /list view of all the processes present in different environments. 4- Once you select any process in any environment: it gives you 2 options : a) Elevate to next Environment (Dev-->SIT, SIT-->UAT, UAT-->PROD). Once you click, all the dependencies are automatically moved/created in the next environment. b) Demote/Degrade to previous Environment/Disable Process 5- It also should provide an option to create/manage the credentials from this app There can be endless possibilities around this one stop CICD model as the admin team doesn't have to login to BP to move the processes and dependencies across environments Thoughts for discussion open.

We are using BluePrism v6.4.2 currently and as per our observation we found that Event Logs from Event viewer has same Event ID i.e. 0(zero) for different level of error levels(Critical,Error, Warnings and information). It would be really helpful if the Event ID are different for different log level to configure easily for monitoring tools like BMC Patrol, Splunk and other monitoring tools to set-up automated alerts

Release management is one of the key activity when it comes to manage the processes versions. we create packages and we take release from it as and when required and we need to name the release manually every time with own naming convention. it would be good if an automatic version of the each release can be generated while taking the release prompt a pop up which allows to accept/reject the release version. if accept then create a release with same as process name with version automatically. also the pop up will give a area to add the description to that release, why that version is generated where reason is added to justify it. example: PID_001_Process_Order_Creation i create a package with name UAT_PID_001_Process_Order_Creation similarly for PROD_PID_001_Process_Order_Creation as i need to take multiple releases as and when changes are done, blueprism can just create a release with a version. Example: UAT_PID_001_Process_Order_Creation_0.1 Desc : initial release for UAT UAT_PID_001_Process_Order_Creation_0.2 Desc : bug fixed and changes added as per the business requirement in order status. PROD_PID_001_Process_Order_Creation_0.1 Desc : initial prod release it saves time of the developer and will not mislead if there are too many releases in backup. this automatic versioning will be maintained automatically by allowing auditors to track, when and how many releases are taken and the reason of it by looking into the description and version number. Looking forward to hear back from team on the same. will be adding more details to it if this idea is worth. Thanks

Create the Session Log Viewer as a normal window with maximize minimize functions I cant' even use the windows 10 feate to automatically dock it to a side. Would also be great to save width of coloumns or save the coloumns selection. when I enable or disable a coloumn. It would also be great to have these coloumn functions when in the workqueue overview.

Would be great to have a hotkey for this because when you have a bug in your process sometimes you are stuck in "step out" so that I only can use the taskmanager to end the automate.exe

Control Room / Application Server should be able to send E-Mails if a Process Terminates. In my eyes a must have feature for unattended Bots. When I leave work and the Robot terminates after some minutes there are so many hours of runtime lost. If I would get an E-Mail I could simply start the bot again or fix the issues remotely.

Hi, It would be nice to be able to detect and modify the status of a work queue (running/paused) from within a vbo. Also a filter on any kind of "get items" from that queue would come handy, because now you get all the items, even if the queue is in pause. Kind regards, Wim VdV

Right now if any element is not found in Read, Write or navigate stage , an error message is shown like" Unable to perform xxxxx in Step x....". I think if the element not found is automatically highlighted in the application modeler would be a great time saver. I think Open Span has a similar functionality.
