Has anyone had any success with Document Automation reading .pdf’s of checks? If so, what’s your secret sauce? 

Is there a way to capture the text of a “vanilla” javascript alert on Google Chrome, like on the image below?  I need to capture “example text” but the capture action (even with the alternate capturing methods) can only get the title “community.automationanywhere.com diz” This kind of capture works fine on Edge and Firefox, but I need it on Chrome.

Hello, Has anyone go through a project of extracting custom fields from a non-standard document using Azure Form Recognizer + Document Automation (provided that the document to extract data from might have a table spanning across multiple pages) If not, then how do you tackle a IDP usecase where you need to train a custom model for using it with Document Automation?

I am curious if anyone has found a way to do this easily? The Email package hilariously has activities for checking if an email folder exists, but no activity to allow you to do something if it does not. Similarly, the Move activity does not have an option to create subfolder structure if it does not exist. I have a customer that is moving emails out of a large shared mailbox, and often needs to create the sub-folder structure as they go. At this point I am relegated to calling an external script (clunky), just curious if someone has found a way to do it natively.

Hello,I developed a bot to test Google DocumentAI functions. The initial "Connect" action works perfectly, but I'm encountering an error when attempting the "Extract" action, as shown in the attached image. Could someone provide assistance?Please note that this bot functions correctly in the Automation Anywhere Community Edition, but it's not working within our organization's control room. Thank you. 

Some of our bots have been having issues opening excel files from OneDrive.  Frequently, the following error is received, “An unknown error occurred when executing the 'OpenExcel' command. To continue, contact your system administrator.”If the bot is run again, it has no issues and is able to open the file with no changes made to the code.  Curious if anyone else has had this issue, or a suggested solution.  There are no issues with the file path, the document is sharable in OneDrive.

Hi folks,I would like to connect to Dataverse using automation 360. please let me know how to proceed with this.

Hello, I am creating a bot that runs a report everyday (except the weekends) before 7am. So, everyday it’s a new excel sheet and currently the bot is retrieving a specific excel sheet. The problem is how do I get the bot to retrieve the current excel sheet and not yesterdays excel sheet.So I could change the file path everyday but then I could just do this manually which defeats the purpose of automating this process.

Hi All, Long story short, bot should upload and processes a file in an application and it takes around 30-60 mins to generate an output file. I cannot let other jobs to wait until it generates an output file and get it placed in BUs folder post processing.
