Hi,  We have experienced process stoppages many times due to sudden Windows update pop-ups or security or Antivirus or other kinds of pop-ups appearing on the screen while the processes ran. The Windows support teams may not be able to block all of them permanently due to security and other issues. So it's better we have APIs to block system pop-ups when the process starts and reset as it ends, something similar to APIs that are there to change system resolution when the process starts.  Please help me understand if I'm missing anything or if it's already there, please ignore. Thanks. ... View more

When doing an Undo to reverse a newly made change in a process or object, the focus remains on the current page rather than moving focus to the page where the Undo is executed. This is very confusing when doing a number of Undo's in a row in order to reverse a list of changes made. When executing an Undo, the Studio editor should move focus to the page where the Undo will be done.  Happy coding! Paul Sweden ... View more

Hace poco me observaron a un bot que hice porque llenaba mucho la base de datos, especificamente en la tabla de Tags. Seria bueno que Blue Prism no guarde por defecto los errores que se marcan en la cola como detalle en los tags, ya que duplica el mismo mensaje y llena la base de datos con tags que no son importantes. ...

When editing a process or object while switching workplaces between my laptop-screen and an extra screen, the stages in the process or object are either too small to read or occupy too much real-estate. Obviously, this is easily solved by zooming in or out depending on where I go. Unfortunately, I have to repeat this zoom in/out for every page I use after having switched workplaces. Would it be possible to extend the editors zoom functionality with a zoom-all-pages option? Happy coding! Paul Sweden ... View more

The font readability is currently bad in some of the Process/Object Studio UI elements, for example due to kerning issues. The changed zoom functionality in 6.8 has also made it more difficult to develop. Now that the font scales with zoom, everything below 75% zoom makes the elements unreadable, so development has to be done with 100% zoom, which makes it harder to get an overview of the process. Allowing for better customization of the fonts on user/system level and disabling font scaling below 100 % zoom would enable smoother development. ... View more

​When an item is deferred while waiting for an update or a response it would be much more useful to wake the item up earlier than the defer date. As an example, a case comes in and needs a human to verify some details - we need to defer the case so that it will be captured in an output file of the number of cases worked so the case would be deferred for 24-hours to ensure it gets reported. The issue that then happens is that if the return from a colleague is before the defer time ends you are not able to pick the case back out of the BP queue. In most common work flow systems you can pend/defer cases for a set period of time but also wake that case back up sooner if the required updates have come back so it would be much better to allow BP to do the same ...

Recently i have used Amazon Textract VBO from BP DX. So as BP control room have credentials section with restrictions for access for selected user roles, processes and machines etc. But it does not provide access for selected business objects. And hence using Get Credentials action in Amazon Textract Basic business object; it cannot access my credentials for AWS subscription stored in Credentials section in Control Room.

Hi All, I guess most of us would have come across this issue whenever we try to use excel macros (MS excel VBO) that "macro error pop ups" If we could create a action in ms excel VBO, to close the error pop up and carry the error note inside the object that will be great. ... View more

The level of success a company will have from an RPA investment is very much dependent on how the bots are deployed. If the creation and delivery of bots is slow, error prone and unreliable, it will not be possible to harness the potential of Blueprism Capabilities here We have tried couple of POCs to achieve real benefits of CICD for RPA but could not get expected outcomes and solution was additional overhead Possible CICD Implementation we tried : 1. Using Jenkins and GitHub (As mentioned DX Document) 2. Using Azure Pipelines and Azure Reports (Azure DevOps) 3. Creating Blueprism Bot itself for Pipeline and SharePoint as Repository Blueprism should find inbuild better solution to achieve CICD for RPA beneficial making release management more flexible (eg. by allowing package creation outside BP using AutomateC command) My Linkedin post for getting inputs from industry: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jigneshjk_cicd-rpa-automation-activity-6710137382743621632-lOaj ...

I would appreciate the possibility to add notes to a process or object directly in Studio. The reason for my request is that when you are maintaining a process or object, you might observe issues that you cannot address directly but would like to write down for the next development opportunity.  Possible solution: You would right-Click on the process or object in Studio, chose option 'Add Note' and write your comment, click Ok button to save. ...

Some objects that are created in or exported from Blue Prism 6.9 cannot be imported into Blue Prism 6.8. Cause/Way to reproduce: Create a new Web-based object (such as for Chrome). Drop a Navigate stage onto the action/page. In the Navigate stage, choose the root node and select the dropdown action 'Terminate'. Save and export the object. Before importing into 6.8, rename the file from .bpobject to .xml so that 6.8 can see it. Attempt to import into 6.8. An import error will occur saying 'AMI did not recognise the action type 'WebCloseApplication'. This occurs at least for Terminate, Hover (which wasn't available in 6.8 so it makes sense), and Get HTML. Workaround: Delete Navigate stages or change the action inside to something else temporarily. Then once imported into 6.8, choose actions that are equivalent. Suggested fix: I don't know if there's a way to fix this since it's an issue with an older version or versions. So, maybe provide a converter to clean up XML files exported from 6.9 that will change ID names of actions to what 6.8 and earlier would expect.

As there are some lovely applications out there which do not allow spying the embedded tables they have on display, it would be great if BP had a "Split Text to Collection" action within "Internal - Collections" Object. Reason being, when we have delimited text  (comma, tab, pipe, etc.) stored in the clipboard, there is no way of converting it to a collection without using a code stage... which for many people is not an appropriate thing to do within an Object that interacts with applications. Why would we have such data in the clipboard you may ask? For example if dealing with Elements that have a "DataGrid" classname, or any MS Silverlight tables, or Embedded OracleDB views... the list goes on... we would have to resort to copying and storing said data in the clipboard, as it's not possible to spy. Example code for the action is as follows (VB.Net): Dim dtCSV As New DataTable Dim oRow As DataRow = Nothing Dim oColumn As DataColumn = Nothing Dim sValue, sSuffix, sPattern As String Dim aLines, aValues As String() Dim iMaxColumns, iColumn As Integer Dim FirstRow As Boolean = True Try If Qualifier.Length > 1 Then Throw New Exception("Qualifier must be a single character") End If 'Escape the separator if it is a pipe charcter If Separator = "|" Then Separator = "\|" End If sPattern = Qualifier & Separator & Qualifier '############################################################# 'Find the longest line in the CSV text aLines = CSV_Text.Split(New_Line) For Each sLine As String In aLines If sLine Is Nothing Then Exit For End If sLine = sLine.Trim If sLine = "" Then Continue For End If If Qualifier <> "" Then 'Either trim the leading and trailing Qualifier characters 'or add Qualifier characters if the line starts or ends in a Separator If sLine.StartsWith(Separator) Then sLine = Qualifier & sLine ElseIf sLine.StartsWith(Qualifier) Then sLine = sLine.Substring(1) End If If sLine.EndsWith(Separator) Then sLine = sLine & Qualifier ElseIf sLine.EndsWith(Qualifier) Then sLine = sLine.Substring(0, sLine.Length - 1) End If End If aValues = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Split(sLine, Separator) iMaxColumns = Math.Max(iMaxColumns, aValues.Length) Next '############################################################# 'Read the text again, split each line, create a data row and add to the the data table For Each sLine As String In aLines If sLine Is Nothing Then Exit For End If sLine = sLine.Trim If sLine = "" Then Continue For End If If Qualifier <> "" Then 'Either trim the leading and trailing Qualifier characters 'or add Qualifier characters if the line starts or ends in a Separator If sLine.StartsWith(Separator) Then sLine = Qualifier & sLine ElseIf sLine.StartsWith(Qualifier) Then sLine = sLine.Substring(1) End If If sLine.EndsWith(Separator) Then sLine = sLine & Qualifier ElseIf sLine.EndsWith(Qualifier) Then sLine = sLine.Substring(0, sLine.Length - 1) End If End If aValues = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Split(sLine, Separator) If FirstRow Then If Contains_Headings Then 'Assume this the header row For iColumn = 0 To iMaxColumns - 1 If iColumn < aValues.Length Then sValue = aValues(iColumn).Trim Else sValue = "Column" End If sSuffix = "" While dtCSV.Columns.Contains(sValue & sSuffix) If sSuffix = "" Then sSuffix = "1" Else sSuffix = CStr(CInt(sSuffix) + 1) End If End While dtCSV.Columns.Add(New DataColumn(sValue & sSuffix, Type.GetType("System.String"))) Next Else 'Use default headings For iColumn = 1 To iMaxColumns sValue = "Column" & CStr(iColumn) dtCSV.Columns.Add(New DataColumn(sValue, Type.GetType("System.String"))) Next 'Set the flag early so this first row is also added as data FirstRow = False End If End If If Not FirstRow Then 'Assume this is data oRow = dtCSV.NewRow() iColumn = 0 For Each oColumn In dtCSV.Columns If iColumn < aValues.Length Then sValue = aValues(iColumn) Else sValue = "" End If oRow(oColumn) = sValue iColumn += 1 Next dtCSV.Rows.Add(oRow) End If FirstRow = False Next CSV = dtCSV Success = True Message = "" Catch e As Exception Message = e.Message Success = False End Try Appreciate this can be done more elegantly... but as stated earlier - this is simply an example of the code that could be used for this.
