Blue Prism 6.7 has introduced a new input parameter called "Batch Size" in the "Add
To Queue" action in the Work Queues VBO, which enables users to add multiple items
from a collection to a queue in batches, rather than all items at once. A value of
0 will process all items in one batch. If a value is not specified, a default batch
size of 1000 items, will be used.
From Blue Prism 6.9 onwards, some validation is introduced to recommend that the
value provided by a user in the Batch Size parameter is between 1 and 25,000.
which stages are there in Obj studio which are absent in Process studio:
Process Studio: Does not have Read, Write, Navigate, Code, Wait stages
How to read dynamic Table cell values, (where the Table can be spread over multiple
pages in the browser application):
Spy the table. Then use the "Read" stage in blue prism and in data drop down select
"Get Table".
Then use a dynamic HTML path to return the values of the table, cell by cell. Break
up the path into segments and use counters to increase the row or column each time,
depending on your requirement.
e.g. HTML/BODY(1)/BODY(1)/TABLE(1)/TR(1)/TD(1) could be the location of the first
cell in the table. So the value of TR must be increased by 1 each time to move down
the table and TD to move across it.
"Font Smoothing" is a Windows setting designed to make fonts easier for people to
read by blurring
(anti-aliasing) the edges of text characters. This setting disrupts Character
Matching and we need
it to be switched off on all Blue Prism PCs.
BP's Read Text with OCR action uses Google's Tesseract open source OCR (Optical
Character Recognition)
engine to be able to read text without identifying the font or disabling font
smoothing.
Active queues:
Active queues allow you to set a target number of resources which should be working
the queue. Active Work Queues are only useful when running dozens of sessions for
one process. For running a active queue, Blue prism requires infn on which
process(s) and resource(s) are working on the queue. This information is set in the
Work Queues page under Workflow in the System section of the Blue Prism client, by
associating a published process and a resource group with the queue.
With this information, Blue Prism can find an available resource and create a
process on it which will then work the queue.
Get worksheet as collection: Reads everything from cell A1 to the last populated
row and column.
Get worksheet as collection offset: Reads everything from a specified cell to the
last populated row and column.
Get worksheet range as collection: Reads everything from the specified start cell
to the specified end cell.
What happens when scheduler has to run at a time, but that time the resource pc is
offline ?
In Scheduler settings in System tab, we can set options like, if the Resource is
Offline, then how many times the Scheduler has to retry the run,(e.g. 10 times),
and also like, after how much time the Retry must happen (e.g. 5 min.), and also we
can specify the checking of missed schedules before some time (e.g. check for
missed schedules in the last 15 min.) and run them.
*** In Control tab of Blue prism, we can create a New Schedule, or delete, retire,
run any existing Schedule. While creating, we can specify the diff. parameters like
running frequency, start time, end time (or Never expire), initial task, only run
on working days, etc.
Web services:
We can expose any Object or Process as a web service.
Regular Expressions :
Regex , ? is used for single character, * for one or more characters
