When setting up the first bot that runs with a queue in my organization, I didn’t realize that the “Hide bot run window” option was selected by default. Now I want to unselect it, but I can’t, even though I’m the automation owner. I suspect this is because the queue status is “In Use,” but I don’t know how to change that status.  

Hi,How to add background images/colors and font colors for each element in AARI form.How to enable responsive web design for form.Is the form size is fixed?  Thanks,Ardra

I built a learning instance using Document Automation to extract data from a PDF document. For one of the field “Reference” i would like to add couple of leading zeros to the value depending on a condition:If value extracted for this field starts with 4, i would like to simply add 2 leading zeroes to the value.  I created a Field Rule with a condition “Starts with” and used the “set value” option in the “THEN perform the following actions” section but not sure how i can set dynamic values. I basically need to concatenate the extracted value and 2 zeros in the front.I’m not sure how we can set dynamic values here. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

More and more of our website vendors are locking down their sites with MFA requirements. We have a framework for dealing with MFA emails sending a code and we respond with that code. However, we do not have a mechanism when it comes to Authenticator app requirements such as Google Authenticator. Has anyone else successfully dealt with this problem? How did you go about doing it? Is it even possible?My guidance and insight that you may have is appreciated.   

When I first started the Document Automation Masterclass (which includes 23 mini courses), I was able to access the video prompts easily.However, I’ve recently noticed that I can no longer find the prompts within the course materials.Is this a general issue affecting everyone, or am I doing something wrong on my end?

Hi everyone,I’m automating Oracle Fusion and running into trouble with the “Query By Example” (QBE) toggle button. When I capture it with Recorder in Automation Anywhere A360, it comes through as an HTML Link instead of a true button.In DEV, my bot works (with Generative AI fallback), but in TEST it fails to find the element and the Gen AI fallback doesn’t work either.What I’ve tried so far: Cleared all dynamic properties except DomXPath. Created custom XPath using only stable attributes Also tried targeting by alt and aria-pressed. Issues: A360 still often triggers Generative AI fallback, even with clean XPath. The toggle appears in capture as an “HTML Link” (anchor tag <a>), not a button. Randomized Oracle IDs (_FOpt1:...) break any capture that depends on them. Question: Has anyone successfully stabilized the QBE toggle (or similar Oracle links acting as buttons) across multiple Oracle environments? Is there a recommended property or Recorder configuration (besides D

We do not currently use bot labels (Assign label to a bot).As a bot developer in a controlled corporate environment, I do not have the ability to experiment with this feature.However, after reading the documentation, I believe that bot labels may be able to solve an issue we experience and I am looking for advice and expertise from those who use bot labels.The problem: we have a standard bot development cycle which goes from Dev to UAT to Prod environments. In the UAT environment we perform the majority of testing over test data. However, we often run bots over production data in UAT as a final step before promoting to Prod. Due to the fact that UAT uniquely runs over both production and test data, our config file (which stores the “test = TRUE/FALSE” variable) has to be updated via tedious promotion several times.The Possible Solution: after reading about bot labels, I now suspect that instead of having to promote a brand new config file from Test to UAT every time we need to switch t

Bot executes fine and opens Chrome Browser as the default browser in the Virtual Machine when viewing the deployment live. However, when scheduling the deployment unattended to the same VM, it is failing to open the chrome browser. Actions taken:Browser and Recorder packages are up to date I’ve tried changing the deployment type from Regular to RDP (did not resolve issue) I verified that the chrome browser is up to date and the AA360 extension I made sure the VM has google chrome as the default browser to open I’ve restarted the VM several times I’ve unpaired/paired VM device in the control room (including uninstalling/re-installing the bot agent)Please help determine what could be the issue. Again, the Bot executes flawlessly if I manually log into the VM and watch it.

Hello everyone, Does anyone know if there is a way to force the use of “HTML technology” for capturing web objects? In the Recorder package, you can select any technology for the capture action, but in my experience, “HTML technology” is the safest and most reliable technology available.Unfortunately, you cannot select this option manually. Perhaps someone knows a trick or has a tip for forcing the Recorder to use HTML technology, or is there an official way that I am not aware of? I look forward to your feedback. Many thanks,Benjamin

I’m trying to download an exported bot zip file, but I’m getting error “An unexpected problem occurred.If the problem persists, please contact your system administrator.”. The status of the “Export” activity appears correctly as “Completed”. What could be the issue here?

The presence of the "#shadow-root" tag, as highlighted below, is causing unique identifiers not to appear in the AA attribute list when attempting to spy the elements.  

Hi Guys,Getting the attached error, please help.Thank you :)

Hi,I've noticed a couple of changes in the Control Room interface: The status bar for "In Progress Activity" seems to have been removed and replaced with just a percentage indicator. Is there a way to restore the original status bar view?  the "Hide Bot Run Window" option is selected by default when sending a bot to run unattended. Is there a way to change this default setting so that the bot run window remains visible? Thanks

Hello, we are using Automation 360 Build 37528 and trying to start an unattended bot on a fixed schedule. However if the machine is locked, the bot always fails to start, returning the error message: java.lang.RuntimeException: User - xxx has attested the device credentials, but Console session is locked The user has the correct credentials to unlock the machine and we also tried to uncheck Attest Device Credentials checkbox in user settings, as described in https://apeople.automationanywhere.com/s/article/A360-Java-lang-RuntimeException-User-vdi-has-attested-the-device-credentials-but-not-chosen-to-reuse-an-existing-session but nothing seems to work. Is there anything else we can try? Thank you

HI guys,We have an automation in saleforce app. We do not use connectors/licences etc. We do use recorder captures in various windows. However we’ve experienced that after each Saleforce maintenance captures stop to work due to change in object properties. Do you also have the same experience? Any idea how to handle this, please?Thanks
