Currently, you can add a decision to deviate the process into different branches. We need a way to reconnect the second branch back to the original branch.
Think about a process what includes validation of OCR. After validation is performed, execution continues to the main flow. I understand that is not currently possible in capture. Please check uploaded screenshot for an example.

Interact and associated forms should be able to be unlocked via another user. We have experienced forms being developed by a user remain perpetually locked by developers just like a BP process or object.

One of our client, who is a dedicated user of Blue Prism Interact for multiple processes, has voiced a valuable suggestion for an enhancement.
They express the need to include URLs as a column type in the Table Field directly, allowing for seamless navigation without the need to copy and paste into a separate browser.
Currently, URLs can only be added as text, requiring additional steps to access them.
Implementing this feature would greatly enhance the automation experience for our client and add substantial value to the platform.
I kindly request the consideration of this enhancement for inclusion in upcoming versions of Blue Prism Interact.

There is a checkbox to have skill panel on right hand side. When unchecked it is hidden but when you reopen the studio BP does not remember the setting and it is always visible. This needs a fix.

I would like to be able to extract information from a process that would tell the build of that process. Steps, pages and the Objects used.

We should have a stage where it will Prompt as a popup window and user need to fill in the real time value. This can help with unattended automation and where user need to enter value during the run time.

Hi everyone. I`m sharing an idea to improve the dev experience in Blue Prism. Blue Prism isn`t available to see the params and inputs of the actions in Business Object/Process comparison. This functionality would be good to compare previous commits and restore versions that would need to restore.
In the example below, I need to see the inputs of each actions to compare the previous version of the navigate. When I analising directly in the Object, It`s able to see the inputs values, as you can see in the attachment file:
BP Version: V6.10.4

based on ticket #251602 BP allows the definition of external web services that then can be used as Action stages. There is an option in the definition 'Disable Sending of Request' which is a nice feature to first do same dry runs before actually sending the WS request. However, the output of this Action changes depending if the 'Disable Sending of Request' is activated or not: some header lines of the request are omitted in the Request Output data. In our tests these header lines were missing when 'Disable Sending of Request' was active: 'Host', 'Content-Length', 'Connection' Since this is intentionally 'by design' I am creating this enhancement idea to have all header lines shown in the request output, regardless if 'Disable Sending of Request' is active or not.

It would be great to have a native PowerPoint VBO with all functinality and expansion from Blue Prism itself on digital exchange for the PowerPoint.

When opening System / Archiving in manual mode, there is a time frame to be specified that limits the shown logs currently in DB. It would be nice to have the Start date being 'open' in order to query all history until End date. There might be some logs in 2019 and I would never know (or maybe in 2018? 2017? you get the point :))

I believe that creating schedules with multiple servers, where they are executed based on priority, would be an excellent option. For example: I have the BP_2025 robot and the servers: vm01, vm02, vm03, with priority given to vm02. When creating the schedule, I will choose the priority of server availability. If vm02 is occupied, the robot will be sent to vm01. If there is more than one robot with priority for the same server, there should be a field or an ID to determine which execution will be sent. This would make server management much more flexible and drastically reduce costs in cloud environments. Additionally, it would further reduce the incidence of schedules not starting. #ControlRoom

Hi, I had a few suggestions that came to mind while using Next Generation that I find make the product a little more challenging to work with than it has to be. 1. 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. 2. Select and mark multiple queue items as exception. Not having this option was a bit of a surprise. What happens if you need to mark a huge volume of items? I had to already and it took long. The data provided to the queue was bad so I could not retry and didn't have much of an option. Along with that, an option to empty a work queue would also be nice. Having to then select all delete multiple pages of data, if ever needed, can also be unnecessarily tedious. 3. Set Dev or Production at the top level, not page level: Maybe instead of setting the page to development, maybe at the top level we select when we're in Dev or Prod. 4. Some notification that a published process has dependencies pending review and need to be published/approved would be nice. It can be hard to remember every time you may need to publish new dependencies. Thank you,

It would be good to have the option to check/uncheck a selection of processes or objects being imported through a release. For example a change went into production recently which had a bug in it but a backup of the process wasnt taken from production before the new one went in causing an issue in rolling back the change. As a rule we take a full production back up at the end of every week so we could import this release but as it includes EVERYTHING it meant a good bit of time during the import where we had to select whether the process/object was to be imported or not imported, since we only needed one process imported it was a real hassle. If we had a check box to select/unselect all we could select only the ones we need to import without having to go through the drop down selection for each process and object.

In Blue Prism, this functionality would be implemented as an action within a business object that allows jobs to "release" their digital worker licenses when a higher-priority job is pending. Essentially, the action would enable the job to place itself back into the queue, allowing more urgent tasks to be processed without disruption. Having transitioned from UiPath to Blue Prism, I’m bringing a feature I previously custom-built in UiPath, which I found to be immensely beneficial. In our previous framework, we had a system where low-priority jobs could run throughout the day, but if a higher-priority task emerged and required a license, the lower-priority job would temporarily give up its license and return to the queue. The code would do this checking every time a new queue item was picked up. This behavior was seamlessly integrated into our framework, allowing our processes to communicate dynamically with the control room. The ability to manage this flow, where jobs could intelligently pause for higher-priority tasks, ensured better resource allocation and process efficiency without needing manual intervention. This feature enhanced our automation framework by offering flexibility in job scheduling.

Each version of Blue Prism should display tooltips and highlight new features when installed for the first time. This is a common practice in many tools, as not all users will thoroughly read the release notes or actively explore every new feature. It is the responsibility of the product developers to incorporate such tooltips within the software to ensure users are informed and encouraged to try out the new features.

It is possible to start schedule, delete schedule, report on schedule... but there does not seem to be a command to create or retire schedules, which would complete the functionality for CLI commands for AutomateC.exe

In Blue Prism UI, opening tab: Releases, in the main window named Package Overview, several columns with information on existing/known releases and packages is shown in list view with columns: name, created, created by and last release. The provided information would be much more valuable if the columns could be sorted and maybe even filtered. I just imported a release file, not knowing if the target is an existing group, a new group (and what it's name) or if it maybe was done as adhoc package. Being able to sort columns would greatly increase the chance of finding the package.

SS&C stated this is the Chorus behavior and not a bug. But to user side, this is not logical.

Chorus is unable to store email addresses of more than 75 characters. Email standards allow for up to 320 characters in email addresses and we cannot control the addresses used by our clients/CMOs so we need Chorus to store email addresses of the full 320 characters. This is currently leading to email uploads failing silently and requires urgent remediation.

One of our clients would like to move the comments from presentation flow's automation service from User comments to System comment. This change is necessary because the automation service system comments are crucial for our users to understand the status of the work. Moving these comments to system comments makes more sense because they are triggered by the system rather than an operator.
