Get the Coordinates of a Specified Feature in Webpage

I am capturing an area of a window, but the size of this area varies depending on the webpage I am viewing. I would therefore like to identify a feature on the page and get its coordinates. I will then use these coordinates in the image capture package so I only capture the relevant bit. Can I do this in A360?

Loop through columns and dynamically get column number

Hi Team! for my current robot I need to get data table from the website (this is the website: https://www.bnr.ro/Exchange-rates-1224.aspx) and extract values from column where column name is yesterday’s day. It will not be a fixed column number or column name.  I was wondering if you have any best practices how to extract data from data table where column name is a variable? Many thanks for helping!

Swagger differences and inconsistencies for A360 versions

Hi all,  While working for different customers, differences and inconsistencies in Swagger and lack of backwards compatibility have been found between AA360 versions.Examples: repository-management-api.yaml : Older version on the left does not have some definitions covered in the newer version on the right. Still, API endpoints are there and are working.Trigger API definition missing on V1 for older version on the left, but present in V1 for newer version on the right. You would expect changes for newer versions to be added, but older versions that might be used would be expected to remain consistent API versioning usually means having legacy support between application versions. In the newer version on the right, Endpoint for /activity/list from V2/Bot execution was just removed and bumped to V3.  Does anyone know how to cope with these inefficiencies? Is there an​​​​​​​y official announcement or documentation where AA indicates these new changes?I would like to be up to date on these

Workshop for Setting Goals
Workshop for Setting GoalsAutomation Pathfinder Program

Setting strategic goals helps your organization, and more specifically - your automation team, know exactly what to focus on - as well as how their roles align to a much greater objective. It’s important to not only set, but also to clearly communicate, these goals. They’ll set the tone for your automation program’s early progress and help your organization make significant progress in its digital transformation journey. Let’s take a look at some questions you can ask yourself (and your team) as you craft both your short-term, and long-term goals as they relate to setting SMART goals. What are SMART goals? The SMART of SMART Goals stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. Evaluating and defining all of these parameters as you design a compelling program vision and goals will enable your automation program to have tangible targets as you embark on your automation journeySide Note: Though this is written for leaders just getting started with an automation pro

Getting started on your Automation Journey? Looking to take things to the next level with Agentic Automation? Remember, it’s people who are your greatest asset.It’s people who come up with great automation ideas It’s people who work through challenges to build automations It’s people who build the POC’s that inspire your stakeholders It’s people who will decide to put AI powered automations to use as a normal part of their work life and choose it as a way to be more effectiveSince people are so important, defining roles and responsibilities clearly from the start is critical.

AA 11.3.4.0 Chrome issue

Hi all, During development of a task using Chrome in short periods of time i got a Out of memory popup (or something similar) and after I closed it several times, my bot doesen’t seem to recognise any object in Chrome (current or new, not related to said bot). Furthermore, smart recorder is very slow and innacurate as well as object cloning in Chrome. In IE and other desktop applications object are being recognised normally as usual. Also, I’ve noticed a large increase in CPU load caused by ‪C:\Windows\System32\SearchFilterHost.exe. Other machines do not have this process at all. I don’t know if that is related to the issue but it appeared in the same time. I’ve tried to reinstall Chrome, remove and add plugin, restarted the machine multiple times but no help. Is there any way to fix this, maybe somehow to “reset” AA client? Thanks,

Recorde elements with Technology type MS_ACTIVE_ACCESSIBILITY (e.g. Excel, Outlook, Notepad, etc.), Not working

In recent days we have had problems with the A360 tool trying to identify elements with technology type MS_ACTIVE_ACCESSIBILITY (e.g. Excel, Outlook, Notepad, etc.), this has not allowed us to execute previously identified elements (Throwing exceptions related to not finding the elements), in addition to not allowing us to identify new elements. We have tried to identify elements with the same bot user but on different VM and it works fine, so we believe the issue is at the VM level Has anyone experienced a similar problem?
