Hi everyone,

 

I have 3.5 years of experience in UiPath (Automated close to 15 bots end to end), just got an opportunity to pick up AA in the job. AA seem to be completely on cloud.

I understand that even though both are automation tools, they slightly differ in some areas. What are the things I should be doing within the 1st few weeks so that I can get a better grip on AA.

 

I started going through AA University and completed the essential courses (26 modules).

​@ManojYadav You’re going the right way. The Essential courses will get you started.

Your knowledge of UI Path will come in handy, but also don’t let it handicap you. The pre-definition of things required in UI Path are not present in AA. You can make variables and resources on the fly.

Thanks! ​@Aaron.Gleason 

 

Have a small query, I would be the first one in my company to learn AA, is there any template with exception handling, and build in best practices which I can refer to?
