Adding images from my local desktop to excel

Hi,I need to add images from my local desktop to an excel file using automation anywhere. I tried to do this using the screen recorder and automating the clicks to insert an image, but this method is not very reliable because I am running this bot on a server that has a different version of excel than the one that I am building the bots on, therefore the UI does not align and the screen recorder does not work.I know that there exists a bot in the bot store that adds images from your local PC to an excel file, but this bot is also unreliable because you can not reliably resize the images without killing the image resolution and making the image unreadable.Does anyone know of any other alternate methods for adding an image file from your local PC to an excel file using AA?

How to access variables for my loop?

Hello!I am pulling invoices from PeopleSoft and saving them to a file folder. I’m using a cell range on an Excel spreadsheet that the bot opens. I want to loop through the cell range and use the values in certain cells to input onto a PeopleSoft form and then save the file according to another cell value.So, let’s pretend that the Excel file is Docpull and that the cell range I want is C3 to N10. Once, I start my loop, I will go to PeopleSoft Vouchers and enter the value of N3 first in the loop, do some stuff, and when ready to save, I’m saving the file named from the cell value in C3. Then I iterate to the next row.Please help! Thanks! 🐺

Unable to download the bot or the dependencies to the device

I’ve looked through the other forum posts about this issue. There’s no concreate fix for this. I’ve done a lot of the standard stuff, reboot VM, PC, uninstall/reinstall bot agent. Nothing works...kind of. The bot will run once, and then it will throw the error for a while before working again. What’s annoying is I can run a different bot no problem. Does anyone have something else for me to try to get the one bot to run (in succession) ?

Bot Deploy Failed

We have a new A360 on-prem control room installation and any attempt to deploy to a bot runner fails with a generic “deploy failed” message. Upon some investigation, the global cache isn’t getting populated and there is no files in %AppData%\Local\Automation Anywhere directory (resources or messaging) like on our other working on-prem instances.So far, I’ve tried adding/removing devices from the control room, which necessitates uninstalling and reinstalling the bot agent. The control room will show the device as connected as well. I don’t know exactly what control room log files would have the best info, but most of the ones I check don't have any error messages that look promising for diagnosing what’s going on.

Slowness and Delay When Using "Simulate Keystrokes"

Dear Community Members,We are currently experiencing significant delays when using the "Simulate Keystrokes" feature in AA360. The issue arises during the automation of an unattended bot to log into a system via a login page.Initially, the bot successfully logs in, but with a noticeable delay. However, when the bot attempts to log in for the second time, the login process fails, and we continue to experience the same delay. We have tried changing the package version, but the issue persists.Has anyone encountered this problem recently? If so, are there any known workarounds or solutions to address this issue?Thank you in advance for your assistance.Best regards,Shehan B.

Recorder action not timing out

I am curious if anyone else has seen this. I inherited a bot that manipulates the UI of a medical provider webpage. I was told the bot has been failing in production for a long time, but the errors (due to insufficient logging) were vague at best. After troubleshooting the process I found the issue is not that the bot is failing but that it hangs, and I have narrowed it down to a particular step.The step in question is a simple Recorder step that clicks on one of three tabs (below). It seems from time to time the window closes or the tab is somehow not found. The interesting thing is the step completely ignores the timeout that is set. It simply hangs at this point and does not error out. In the production run of this bot, I found an instance where it stayed - stuck at this step - for days, while other bots filled the queue waiting to run. I have since added a timeout of 120 minutes under this bot’s settings page, and it is at least failing out now. But what I do not understand is why
