During change in time for Day light savings the schedule time are being changed to one hour less are more twice a year . Out of 1000 schedules, 400 are to be changed for enterprises will be tiring to change one by one scrolling and finding the corresponding schedules. It will be easier if there is a search option or filter option or sorting in the schedules tab.

Hello! As a developer we get conditioned to save ALOT and typing a comment every time means a distraction from the thought-process. I understand this is due to the commits to the DB behind BP. A feature to Quicksave (ctrl+s) to temporarily save the changes locally without a comment would make developing alot smoother. That way you could test objects until they work the way you want them to, and then commit them to the DB. The same way most developer tools work these days.

A Dashboard which will be much easier to configure and use as the current one. And as a feature it would be really nice if you could display in a external confluence. So that everybody can see the values and not only the person, which have installed bp.

When saving logs, I have to select the file format in which I save them. After I've done this ("html," for example), I then have to manually type ".html" on the end of the file name. If I don't do this, Blue Prism removes the file name and path that I've typed so that I have to type it again. I feel like Blue Prism should be able to add the extension automatically based on my file type selection on the page before naming the file. Essentially, it's forcing me to select the file type twice--once via radio button, then again via text box. This is a quality of life or ease of use improvement request, definitely, but one that would prevent frustration when you're constantly having to save, send, and review logs.

Problem statement: if there is a change in the application layout as part of an upgrade the RPA process which was built on the previous version will fail. Now it takes a lot of effort to identify the changes happened to the elements that are identified previously.. idea: Application modeler should have a built in functionality to compare previously captured element and new element and highlight the differences option to Calibrate the previous version of elements with introduced changes.

Currently, the fact that a process is exposed as a web service is not a part of the release package. As such, it needs to be changed manually on import to a new environment. It would be better if exposure status was stored within the .bprelease file itself, in the same way the "process published" flag is stored within the release.

When retiring a process there should be a warning if the process is referenced by a schedule. When using the find references function on processes the referencing schedules should be shown.

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.

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.

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.

To be able to tackle performance issues, the Blue Prism log should take in account the duration of each stage. Firstly, the Blue Prism log should display the duration of each stage in the log, not just the 'resource start' or 'resource end'. And as some stages are unseen given the log settings, the Blue Prism log should include at the end, the duration of all unseen stages, and the total duration of the process. Secondly, Blue Prism should include a setting to display a stage in the log if its duration is greater than a defined value (in the system). For example, all stages with duration greater or equal than 30 seconds are displayed in the log, even if the setting in the studio is none or error only.

currently a detailed guide is not available which will provide information on different attributes that exists in Application Modeler, a detailed guide would surely help in selecting attributes for e.g. what do we mean by Match Index or Class Name attribute etc

When dealing with complex and dynamic HTML pages, it's not always possible to use the Path attribute to identify elements on the page because the path structure can change based on other elements displayed before the field we want to use. Often those HTML elements don't have an ID property (which would allow to spy them quickly) and the use of other attributes combination doesn't always perform well. This could be solved (not always but in many cases) if we could modify the HTML source adding an ID property to that specific element. My suggestion is to provide an action that executes a search&replace on the HTML source in order to give the developer a way to add an ID property to an element and then retrieves the PATH of that element (i.e. “/HTML/BODY(1)/DIV(4)/DIV(2)/DIV(6)/DIV(3)/DIV(1)/DIV(1)/H2(1) ) that can be used afterward with Read and Write stages. I uploaded a screenshot with a possible example of the action parameters. In that example the action would retrieve the PATH string of the element before the label "Popular Broadway Shows".

In real time customers are not ready to expose data on public cloud like google or azure, which require the files to be uploaded in public cloud. It will be beneficial if BP platform help to build in house AI solutions easily to avoid extra license cost for the AI, and make the solution secure.

When a developer opens a locked process in the studio, they have the option of unlocking it or every locked process in the environment. It's common sense to not unlock all processes but it's an unnecessary risk to have this option uncontrolled. It would be ideal if there was notification sent to the developer who has the object locked so that they can accept or deny the unlock request. Similar to how remote desktop connections work when a user connects to a machine someone else is already connected to.

When you open the process studio or object studio By default, the font is set to Segoe UI and the size is set to 10. Is it possible to change this default setting? For example, when you open the project studio or object studio by default, I want the font to be Meiryo and the size to be 14.

In S/4 HANA1709, a path specification using a wildcard is performed for an element spy in Spy mode, but it cannot be recognized and an error occurs. Similarly, relative paths also cause errors.

As a developer we need ease of creating web service connection and action based on endpoints available . we are looking for step by step wizard which can help to automatically load all the methods or endpoints in a given web service, be it REST or SOAP, as long as the provided link includes the services' definition - Swagger or WSDL. Once loaded select from which endpoints or methods to automatically create actions under Web service window instead of creating them one by one. Something similar already exists in UiPath and other platforms.

The idea is simple. Add wildcard functionality for numeric application elements, such that we can have more flexible elements which can take wildcard numbers in for example ordinals, ancestor count etc. Currently you have to add an explicit setup for numerical elements, limiting you when invoking the element. If for instance you need to be able to search for just the name of the element most of the time, but once in a while would like to be able to use the same element with a specific ordinal, then you currently need to have 2 different application elements, and along with those two elements you need to duplicate the code handling these elements. It would be much easier if we could wildcard these numeric elements and then the function-invoker could determine whether she/he would like to use the numeric element or not. If they supply a * character to the element, then it's the same as ignoring it, as it could be any value, and if they give it a specific value, then the application modeller will only match against that specific value. Sounds like something that should be simple to implement, and at the same time make all our lives easier in the process - Cleaner code for all!
