Columns in the Available Processes, Resources, and Environment sections of the Control room seem to have a default width setting. These columns can be manually resized, but clicking away to Design Studio or another tab will cause them to go back to their default width. I propose that the resized width of these columns should be saved as columns like Name in Available Processes can be similar and the column needs to be resized to see the ends of the names. Also, the Connection column in the Resources section can often be outside of the window if the window is not full screen. I also feel that if a column has no information in it, it should only be as wide as the heading. For instance, the Members column under Resources in our environment contains no information, yet it's almost twice as wide as the header.

A Quality of Life suggestion. Take, for example, the humble 'Item Data' collection, after getting an item from the queue. There could be any number of fields in this collection that will be referred to constantly throughout the rest of the process. Each time you need to refer to one of them, you have to type [Item Data.Field Name], being very careful with your typing. It would be much simpler to instead co-opt the fields that are returned from the queue and have them going forward as pre-defined fields that you can click on via the expression editor.

Currently tasks only provide the status: completed / failed that can be used in Schedules to control the process flow. Branching the execution path can only be achieved by creating artificial termination / fail status. It would be nice if the Scheduler can fetch the process return value (output variable) and then apply simple comparison.

While working on a process and object, when a user puts any new item onto a page, the stage font and size always is set to be Segoe UI with 10 pts. Typically, to change this you could select all and set a new font and size. What would be GREAT is to be able to set this default font and size somewhere in studio settings so that you would not have to constantly set it within a process or object when working.

Currently, for some elements spied in Web mode, the "Element Type" combo box only allows a selection limited to the type spied: This proves to be particularly troublesome when re-spying elements using "Application Navigator", as then the type selected remains the same as it was spied initially, even though the Attributes will be changed correctly. This bug is problematic especially when trying to read the contents of such elements - for example a table. Being unable to change the element type, reduces the actions available for a Read stage... and in the case of tables, does not show the "Read rows" action, unless the element was previously spied as a table. Can this please be amended, so that the "Element Type" combo box allows selecting all of the types available for the spying mode used.

Our organization uses Word Templates to control the letter writing experience from a default spacing, font, etc. perspective. Our user base is distributed over internal and external groups to our network, making a centralized location that is secure more and more difficult to maintain. The request is if we could have the Word Template file be stored by Chorus and have our Communications letters reference it instead of a LAN location.

My client (on 23.x) having the following suggestion on the new Process workspace. In the Work object, currently when user view the History and select to Export, he need to export the History; Process; Services tab one by one. Client wish to have the function to export all of them (maybe in separate tabs in the exported csv) in one go.

Currently the ordering of the Sources underneath the parent Work object is by the Source create date/time. My client (on 23.x) would like the option of sorting by a LOB field, in which can be setup under the 'Preferences' dialog so that every user can have their own config.

If a table in UX Builder has row selection enabled(single or multiple), it should also have the option to mark it as a required field. This will force the user to select a row from the table before being able to continue on. Currently as a work around we have to use a button that calls a UX service to ensure that table.selected has data before activating a second button to actually let the user progress. This adds clicks, is not intuitive to an end user, and creates more services to maintain.

Hello, Currently when hovering over the Data Items in the Data Explorer tree in for example a wait stage you only get to see the following: Name, page and data type. It would be highly appreciated and useful if this also could include the assigned value of the Data Items. Best Regards Robin Jensen

It is possible to create multiple named references to the same process/VBO. Provide means to manage those references and prevent accidental deletion/loss. Scenario: - create new group named 'team1' - in this group, create a new object named 'process1' (>'team1\process1') - export the process to file - import the process, confirm when asked to overwrite. the process will be in 'default\process1' - delete 'default\process1', this will delete the actual object The problem is the deletion actually deletes the object and all references to it even it is not obvious that this is only one of several references and deleting it would impact other references and depending processes/VBO. This may happen when exporting/importing single objects and as well when importing releases containing the same objects but different structures.

Blue Prism helps in automating lot of manual work. However the process of doing release/deployment is time consuming. For a bigger RPA CoEs, it would be really helpful if deployments could be done using AutomateC/CommandLine with option to select components from a release file rather than having to import everything by default.

Suppose there is a web page we're interested in modelling for an RPA process. we access it via Chrome (because other browsers do not render the page appropriately or consistently) to the naked eye, it contains one or more tables having real-time data. As a result, the tables are rendered dynamically (i.e. the underlying HTML source does not contain the Old School <table><tr><td> tags... but various layers of <DIV> and <SPAN> tags). depending upon various filters used in the business process, the table presentations are not always consistent (the tables won't always have the same number of rows or columns; the columns won't always be in the same order; etc.) the most stable and consistent feature of these dynamic tables (regardless of the current visible manifestation of these tables) is that one or more Attributes of an HTML tag for a cell in these tables describes the nature of data in that particular cell. For example -- if, in a particular table cell, web text is contained by the tag '<DIV column-name="employee-last">' we know the web text corresponds to the last name of an employee AND any other web text in that table whose DIV tag contains the 'column-name="employee-last"' attribute ALSO will be the either the last name of an employee OR the heading of the Employee Last Name column. It would be valuable to be able to include HTML Tag Attribute information in Attributes that define Elements in the Chrome Application Modeller. Currently, we cannot. The next best thing we can do is read data from the dynamic table that we "guess" to be from an appropriate cell in the table, have Blue Prism read the key HTML Tag Attribute and return its value, if the Attribute value corresponds to the value we expect, we accept the associated data... if NOT, we take another guess until we find a cell containing the right HTML Tag Attribute. I had intended to attach a release of a self-contained BluePrism Chrome Object, but the ideas portal considers that to be unsupported for the purposes of uploading to the portal. The object would have contained two actions, "Read From AG Grid Web_ Element" and "Read From AG Grid Expressions and Context." Each action, Launches a different public-facing web page in Chrome... each web page contains dynamic tables built by the owner of the website (each web page has the same owner)... the owner of the website is a commercial enterprise that sells bundles of Javascript Web controls to web developers so those developers can build pages that connect to data sources and display real-time dynamic tables. Reads one of two headings (based on the True or False setting of the Data Stage in brown text above the Start stage of each object) of one of the dynamic tables for its HTML Path, its Bounds, and the value an HTML Attribute of the heading... its "col-id" Attribute, to be specific. Calculates from the Web Path of the heading, a Regex expression which, when used as a Dynamic attribute for a Web Path, SOMETIMES finds data from the rows below the heading that relate to the heading in question. Conducts a search for data presumed to be in the column corresponding to the Heading we read. Confirms whether the data has the same "col-id" Attribute value as the Heading... if so, it returns the value of the Web Text... if NOT, an Index is incremented and another search is executed. Typically, this workaround is such a drag on RPA process performance, it is not viable. In short... the workaround utilizes the HTML Tag Attribute "After The Fact." Incorporating it into the definition of an Element in the Application Model would utilize the Tag Attribute "Before The Fact" -- and much more efficiently. The desired enhancement: In the Attributes section of the Element Details of the Application Modeller for a Blue Prism Chrome Object, add the following Attribute Names: Web Attribute 1: Attribute Name Web Attribute 1: Attribute Value Web Attribute 2: Attribute Name Web Attribute 2: Attribute Value IF Both the Name and Value of Attribute 1 are set to Match: True in the Application Model, then Blue Prism should consider these settings to be related. Similarly for Name/Value of Attribute 2. Examples: Setting {Web Attribute 1: Attribute Name -- Match: True; Match Type: = (Equal); Value: "column-id"... Web Attribute 1: Attribute Value -- Match: True; Match Type: = (Equal); Value: "employee-last"} means "only consider web elements where one of the Attributes of the HTML Tag is named 'column-id' and the value of the 'column-id' Tag is 'employee-last'" Setting {Web Attribute 1: Attribute Name -- Match: True; Match Type: = (Equal); Value: "column-id"... Web Attribute 1: Attribute Value -- Match: False} means "only consider web elements where one of the Attributes of the HTML Tag is named 'column-id' regardless of that Tag's value" Setting {Web Attribute 1: Attribute Name -- Match: False... Web Attribute 1: Attribute Value -- Match: True; Match Type: = (Equal); Value: "employee-last"} means "only consider web elements where at least one of HTML Tag's Attributes has the value of 'employee-last' regardless of that Tag's name"

Since we have multi team setup to control accessing other team's process/object. The same thing should apply to scheduler where a SCM scheduler can only manage/schedule SCM process and FIN scheduler can only manage/schedule FIN process to avoid potential SOD conflict.

Right now in Blue Prism 7.0, you can filter for sessions in the Control tab, but you can't view all the results. There is no 'next page' button or way to see results that do not fit on the first page of results. The best you can do is change your sorting between ascending and descending, but if the result you want is in a middle page (not the first or last page of results), you can't access it. Others have suggested more custom filtering on the Control tab, which would also solve this issue. At the very least, I am asking for the ability to click through multiple pages of results when I filter for sessions in the Control tab.

Title says it all! 🙂 In a muti-team environment it's easy to reach 10's of similar, yet different, roles. As an example, if I need to change something on the Developer Role I have to go to each Developer role (one for each team) to do the change. If they are not sorted I need to go up and down the list searching for them.

It would be a good idea to see what Blue Prism is attached to at any given time with the help of an calculation stage inside Process Studio and Object Studio, as well as in the Process Logs in Control Room/System. This way it would be possible to troubleshoot different errors that might occurr, such as the error "Could not identify process owning the current foreground window" that could happen when using an AA element

My idea is dding 2 new permissions to the LAM that would add managing capabilities to the Import action: Process Studio - Allow changes on existing processes on import Object Studio - Allow changes on existing business objects on import This will be used in the import wizard when Blue Prism detects an "Import Conflict". Basically, these permissions would be associated with the availability of the "Overwrite the existing process with the incoming process" option on the "Resolve Import Conflicts" window of the Import Process wizard and the "Overwrite the existing business object with the incoming business object" and "Rename the existing business object" options on the "Resolve Import Conflicts" window of the Import Object wizard. These options should not be available if the "Allow..." permission is not set. New permissions proposed when configuring Roles:

Sometimes we need to search a lot of items in a queue to set as an exception or to change the deferral date and is quite sweaty to do only one search at a time. There could be a way to search for more than one, for example, searching item keys between semicolons (;) or quotes(").
