Hi, Like we have a standard VBO for excel, outlook etc with Interop, one standard VBO for PDF with Adobe Acrobat DC Interop will be very useful to perform common actions on PDF like read entire text, count number of pages, convert PDF to excel or images, search for a text on a particular page, find page number of particular text etc. Acrobat DC has good library mentioned here -  1) https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/iac_api_reference.pdf 2) https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/iac_developer_guide.pdf Lot of these functions can be used to create a code based VBO User will install Acrobat DC on their machine like they install Microsoft office. ...

It should be nice that a Runtime Resource block any attemp for a new connection WHEN during a schedule execution. What I see in many cases, there is GAP between a process and another in a schedule. This GAP between process in a schedule allows to any other process to run in a runtime resource  when this is being used by a schedule. A schedule process can FAIL or stay in PENDING state if there is another season created in the runtime resource. In many cases the PENDING state is never executed. ... View more

Hi Team, What I would request to create a platform or community where we developers can give input if there are any issues or not for any new release of blue prism after use of some days. And product team can have a look into this also once they will go for review. Now the problem is we need to raise ticket every time and they are asking to put stuffs in idea panel which is always unnoticed. Its betterment for BP because we want to be good product. Hope Blue prism team will look into this. ... View more

Hi, On BP panel 'Advanced Find' you'll get the results in the grid as below: The results are first sorted on column 'Page'. Unfortunately, you cannot reorder or sort the find results in any other order than presented. In my case, I'm looking for all places where a collection data item has been defined throughout a process. These data item definitions do pop up in the list as 'Collection' but you have to browse the complete list every time to get them all. Easy to miss one and time consuming.  It would be very helpful if you could click any column in the grid and the results would be sorted on the clicked column. In my case I would like to order the grid on DataType. So I'd browse to whatever DataType I'm looking for and have all data items grouped together. Hard to miss any and time saved. Happy coding, Paul ... View more

Having a design requirement that would be easily solved if scheduler could initiate based on the presence of work items in a target work queue. Example: Fire schedule every 15 minutes IF( [Workqueue1].ContainsWorkItems(>0) ) This would allow a scheduler to check every 15 minutes for the target work queue ('Workqueue1') has a work item greater than zero.  Some additions to this could include filtering on tags/status/ attempts or other work queue related data points. ...

Hi, Multi-team permissions is a nice feature that allows us to share our instance across our organization yet only exposing processes and resources relevant to the department user. One major downside is ALL the control room work queues are exposed. This is potentially a security risk as a user may wish to view the logs to another departments queue and learn about information they are not privy to. Since worked queues can already be organised into groups / folders it seems a natural extension to add multi-team to these work queue groups. ... View more

Currently each of our Runtime Resource machines log into Windows with a static user ID.  When a process is run on that Resource, it authenticates into the applications  using a different user ID that is dependent on the process. We are now starting to implement Single Sign on for many of our applications, which does not work with our current setup. I want to request that you develop a Login Agent functionality to support multiple credential logins for each resource.  ... View more

related to following idea, which also provide further details: https://community.blueprism.com/ideas/viewidea?IdeationKey=685838f9-1ad8-4ed9-b293-cc951d97904e The idea is to change the system wide setting for browser extension port assignment to be per object/process. It should be possible to set default behavior to dynamically assigned ports but tell BP to use standard port when attaching to running browser instance.  Using standard ports when attaching to browser could be new default behavior (since it is obvious dynamic ports won't work). ...

Hi, Communty.   I have two processes that runs background features (.bat, .vbs) and some calculations and send email task that are also background staff.   My idea is to run this two processes in the same runtime resource at the same time.   Is that possible now?   I have the best practice topology installed, app server, database, runtime resources all in different hosts.   I want to do this from the control room.   Best regards. ...

Hello, BP v6.x could desperately use some UI enhancements.  We're on 6.5 upgrading to 6.9, and the following problems still exist. 1) Saving the window states.  You open up System-> Credentials as an example, and the Credential column is too narrow to read the names.  So you drag the bar to widen that column.  Leave that window and come back later -- the column is narrow again.  This issue is most annoying in Credential Details (adjusting columns in Processes, Resources, & Roles) and the Control Room (adjusting window widths & heights to better view queue names, resources, etc). 2) Control room log viewing - these logs are thousands of lines long.  I want to open them full screen.  Please stop opening them in tiny windows.  Allow me to save my preference of opening full screen. 3) Control room resource window - I don't want to view the Default folder.  We have our resources in other folders.  Please allow us to keep the Default folder closed. Thank you for your consideration. ... View more

Problem Statement: In BluePrism version 6.4.1  to 6.7.1  we don't have option for searching an Object .In most of the cases we need to call the objects from processes using Action stage. Manual searching and adding action in workflows is tedious and time consuming process.   Resolution:  To overcome this issue we need add search engine for BluePrism which will allow us to search and copy the actions into the workflow. Implementation: Created PowerShell script which act as a search engine for BluePrism objects. Search the object and copy the required action to clipboard. Usage:  Right click and run the script using PowerShell Below window will appear Search for the required Object   Copy the Object Paste it in BluePrism workflow   ... View more

We have had multiple occasions where customer needs to transfer data from environment to another environment. Currently we are able export credentials and workqueues but on a name and a structure level only meaning that the contents are not transferred. When customer has 1000 or more credentials and workqueues where history etc needs to be transferred, a simple data transfer operation that should not take more than 15 minutes is suddenly a two month project or even longer since every credential needs to be manually re-entered, processes to be created to export workqueue items contents to excel file or something similar. Blue Prism already has AES256 encrypt/decrypt possibilities so I would assume it should not be too much of a hassle to add encrypt/decrypt into the process of exporting packages, for example making it only possible to export/import to an environment with same Encryption Schemas ...

We run several independent BP instances to serve multiple development teams.  Information about usage, status, schedule, licenses, ... is hard separated and has to be evaluated for each instance independently.  It would be nice to have one common supervisor server, which at least makes meta data available conveniently.  This could also serve for central license management. This could also be seen as big step towards multi tenancy. ... View more

Hi, I am wondering why after so long why is BluePrism doing the auto conversion of Date & Datetime to UTC. It is definitly the most annoying thing in BluePrism. It is literally frustrating to work with anything Date related in the software. Why not give the ability to deactivate this conversion that it always does? Even when your datetime is already in UTC time, it will convert it anyway, making your date so out of whack that it doesn't make sense anymore... and don't get me started on collection with date where you need to loop in the collection. You can get them converted a lot and making your process a lot harder to develop because you need to account for those instead of just doing that yourself if you need to. BluePrism should never touch any variable automatically without the dev actually doing something. using  DateTimeKind works for the first time when you output but BluePrism clears that after that point so it doesn't really matter what kind it is. Please let user do their things. I know I am not the only one having trouble with that. I saw in another company devs that were using SQL query to get the "Now()" date instead of Blueprism cause it was more reliable. That's not normal to have to do workaround like that for anything. I've been working with BluePrism since version 4 and this is by far the worse thing that has been following us since then. regards, ... View more
