Better UI Development

The last year I've started developing a userScript that enhances the user interface of Automation Anywhere, introducing a command palette and several UI improvements. Here's what it includes:Universal Copy/Paste: Allows you to copy and paste actions between different control rooms. Improved Input Fields: Converts horizontal scroll input fields into text areas. Text Area Conversion: Shows all contents at a glance by breaking words in text areas. Redesigned Buttons: More user-friendly buttons for selecting actions, variables, and triggers. Font and Background Enhancements: Increases font size, uses Cascadia Code, adds colorful backgrounds.

Add data to dataset from an iterative loop

Hi everyone,I have a loop set up that loops through records 50 at a time until the end of the day’s transactions. I would like to build a dataset of all records retrieved from each run of the loop to be exported to Excel. I thought about using a list but I cannot seem to find the right actions to append the data in within each iteration. Could someone give me some guidance or suggest a better way to attack this please?TIA,Steve

Cannot read browser information after being able to previously.

I am working through the Getting Started with the Recorder Package lesson through AAU and attempting to follow along. On step 2 using “capture” in the browser i get this error:“Error occurred while reading browser list from deviceIf the problem persists, please contact your system administrator.”And nothing has worked to fix it. I haven’t changed anything in my browser settings since it was working in the citizen developer path and I am incredibly frustrated with this application. Can you please help me resolve this issue?

Loop While Window Does Not Exist - Save As Pop Up

Hello,I'm encountering an issue with a loop in my Automation Anywhere task. The loop is supposed to continue until a "Save As" window appears. Within this loop, the bot also checks for a pop-up message indicating that a report does not exist.The process works as expected when I set the "Keep Trying for (seconds)" to 0. However, issues arise when I set this to a higher value, such as 3600 seconds. The intention is to prevent the loop from running indefinitely if neither the "Save As" window nor the pop-up message appears. Unfortunately, even when the "Save As" window does appear, the loop doesn't exit immediately but waits for the entire duration (3600 seconds) before proceeding.To troubleshoot, I tested with a shorter duration of 10 seconds. My expectation was that if the "Save As" window did not appear within 10 seconds, the bot would exit the loop and move on. However, the loop seems to continue indefinitely, disregarding the timeout setting.Moreover, it appears that the set duration

Simple recording capture is not working

I have created a workflow with opening a browser and capturing login/password and click event on the login page.When we run the BOT, we are getting error message from the system saying the fields are empty. Although the browser window the BOT opens is showing those fields as filled in.When we do the same steps manually on the same login page, everything works as expected. Any help/direction is greatly appreciated.

Fine tune bot success count in COE Manager to ignore runs where nothing was processed

Hi,We have a bot that is scheduled to run every hour to check an outlook email account for emails to process. It is linked to COE manager which provides us with a count of how many times the bot ran successfully or unsuccessfully. The success count is including those times the bot ran but there were no emails to process. Is there a way of eliminating those from the counts. For example, if there was only one email or even a handful of emails but they were all processed during one run of the bot then have the success count show 1 instead of 24.
