It will be great if we can download\copy any of our objects Application Modeller attributes to another object or environment . Say i did some changes in my DEV for a object (just a attribute property change) it will be great instead of importing the complete object to UAT\PROD i just import my attribute file of that object . Thus if someone wants to just only have attributes file due to some automaton of Peer review\documentation one can directly check the file instead of complete .bprelease. Moreover attributes can be then be moved across objects or environments.

In Control Room, when right click at the queue view, there is the option "Export current view as report...", which generates a CSV file with the queue view.
I would like to request the option to change the list separator when generating the report. By dafault the report is generated with comma separator. I think there should be the option to use system default (or other list separators) to generate this report.

Can Blue Prism dev team incorporate a configuration that customers could turn on - it would strictly enforce TLS 1.2 communications only. In order to allow customers to interoperate with their insecure applications , this setting could be set to 'Disabled' by default.

When I check for changes to a process or object, I want a visual way to understand it, such as "Compare", and a way to understand it by writing like a list. (Example of the list: Input BB of XXX page AAA action has been changed to CC) ) ===== ご担当者様 作成したプロセスやオブジェクトの変更箇所を確認する際、Compareのように視覚的にわかる方法と、文字でわかる方法が欲しいです。(〇〇ページ◆◆アクションのInput△△が▼▼に変更されました など一覧で) よろしくお願いいたします。

For now when we expose a process as a web service it remains resource dependent , in other words that resource should be always up and running else the service will return timeout . Can we make the exposure of service as either Application server dependent or queue dependent . This will also help with Load balancing as there is no such mechanism to share load out,now for exposed service.

Right now if you wish to publish a process, you have to open it and then have to double click on Info stage. After that you have to tick the checkbox " Publish to control room ". There can be submenu option provided in order to publish it without opening it. For ex- In the Process tree , right Click on any process and click publish

As we all see while using any Exception stage we can mark "What type of Exception it is" and "What this Exception says\details" . It will be great if we also can include another field there saying "Exception Resolution Steps" --> Which are simple steps which a developer will add in order to tell what needs to be done when this exception occurs. Example - A System Exception with detail saying "Restart this application when this exception occurs" this will be great idea as it can get logged into the database\queues also . Further it can be used by control room Teams to better support a particular project or can be a helpful hand if a new developer joining the team looks at that project or object exception -->He\She exactly knows now what is needed to be done !

Hi Team , As documentation is a important part of every process journey . Documents like Technical Design , Solution design or Object design mostly contains information which we we are filling in our Blue prism database or is already a part of our .bprelease file(which is indirectly a xaml file). We can make this automated VBO which which can create a skeleton for us containing information like -
Release Details
All Process
All Objects
Credentials
Work Queue
Environment Variable
System Exception
Business Exception
Description of Processes and Object
Published Process
and many others like this , which can be again looked and corrected by developers if needed . This skeleton(draft) of files using this VBO will save a hell lot of time for any developer.

Hi Team,
As AS IS process is a important part of our RPA project and sometimes can be more time taking and not very interesting task for a BA, Why not automate this ?
Can we create a BP Process Bot(Say BP Documentor) which when running on SMEs machine can allows you to capture AS IS process in a form of step-by-step manual with screenshots and text instructions.
A BOT which silently is running as a background process monitors actions of the subject matter expert and his team and generates word or PDF or video file containing screenshots, data or keys used or the attributes or differences if they perform while doing some task and of what is happening on the screen. After exporting, you can save the session in a document for further editing to be done by a BA or PEX or create a skeleton of a Blue Prism Solution with detailed notes for the developer who would be afterwards implementing the solution.
The same Bot can be running N number of a times for a single process but with different Project Team members making sure it captures all the running steps what all team members are performing and find out if they are performing some steps which are different in between.This can be make sure to minimize miscommunication when capturing the process to be automated. Rather than doing workshops and listening to the customer, you can give him/her a tool that would listen for you.

At the moment using https on the resourcePC the parameter /sslcert needs the hash value. From my perspective it will be better to use the common name (CN) of the certificate, because the CN won't change if the certificate is renewed, but the hash value will. Therefore there is some maintenance work to do to use the new hash value, which can be prevented by using CN

I think it will be quite useful if blue prism can provide a browser based UI which can be shared with some of the process owners to run their process on a bot on their own. The portal can have a mechanism to provide access only to a particular process to process owner. At backend this process will be configured to run on a particular bot. The design above might not be perfect, however intent is to provide mechanism to process owners to run their own process in case their process can't be scheduled due to some dependency. Ofcourse various related entities to it like access or which bot it has to executed on, what if bot is busy at that time etc. need to be considered and designed accordingly.

This would make the web element identification for Chrome more precise, as we could define what element we actually want to work with, as most web pages do not really have unique values for all elements we would like to work with. This way the nesting could be defined, which would definitely give us much higher chance to create a unique combination for more robust application model.

When Zooming in process or object studio, it would be a more intuitive experience if the zoom centered on the cursor position rather than on the center of the canvas. The current method requires you to scroll vertically and horizontally to center your point of interest either before or after zooming. Zooming on the cursor allows you to simply position your cursor over the point of interest (something that you do intuitively most of the time) and zoom, removing the need for 3 or 4 additional actions every time you scroll.

For easy navigation of processes and business objects it would be incredibly useful to have a 'pan' tool to move about the canvas. What I'm talking about is a click and drag function to move the zoomed-in view of the flow diagram in process and object studio. This would be most useful combined with a shortcut key (e.g. 'P' for pan, or you could use the 'H' for 'Hand' convention that Sketchup uses) to allow full and fast navigation of the canvas. It's a feature I love in other software packages (including Sketchup) but I miss in Blue Prism.

Hi Team, I am looking to automate Peer Review process for our team and one of the thing which comes to my mind is to do it through Blue prism DB or XML files of Processes and object. IN every review we try and find below points : Validation error count Unused pages Data Item I would be like we will run this BP automation and above will be done without involving other team member to review it. Above are the few elements which I highlighted there are more things we will e doing in peer review and exploring it as well. is there any way we can get the above information through DB
