Newer bot builder here, and I just created a Learning Instance in Document Automation where I can extract First Name, Last Name and Case Number for a document. An output file is created successfully for each file I process. I cannot figure out how to extract the PDF file name into the same output file. Is there a way to do this? I need the file name to be extracted into the same output file so the next step in the process it can match up the proper file with the first name and last name to docket the correct file with it in the case management system. 

I am using a recorder in AA 360. My first capture I am using Get Property >>>HTML Inner Text and have this in my inner text list [ Portfolio, Accounting, Contacts, Reports]. Can I use Web Automation: Click Action to search a specific Inner Text? If yes please elaborate. I am new to the platform. Thank you! 

We have a requirement for our BOT to run on a specific BOT runner. Is it possible to configure an AARI process or a BOT that’s called within an AARI process to launch on a specific runner? If so, what are the steps to accomplish this?

I am trying to call an API using REST Web Service which requires the certificate (pem file), private key and passphrase needs to be passed to do teh secure connection. But I cannot see any options available in the REST command to pass all these parameters. Need help on this.

Hi everyone,I’m trying to deploy a new AARI process in the Production environment but can’t find clear documentation on how to do it.My questions are:How can I properly add a new process to a team in AARI so team members can access it? When creating the process, how should I link it with the correct Control Room bot(s) — especially if the process needs to call multiple bots? What’s the correct procedure to promote or publish a process from DEV to PROD in AARI?Any step-by-step guidance or best practices would be really helpful.Thanks in advance!

Posting this so that the powers that be may see it.Would be great if there were a feature that allows us to force an extracted document to go into validation. Why would this be nice?In my use case I am having to pass dozens of files through the validator every week in hopes to gain higher accuracy in the extraction results. Unfortunately because the DA tool is often confidently grabbing the wrong fields, the extracted document is considered “Success” (even though I know it got the wrong fields) and wouldn’t normally go through validation. I’m having to use alternate methods to force the document into validation each time so that I can train it. I’m currently creating dummy form fields that don’t exist so that the document goes into validation, but with each run I have to come up with a different fake field which is time consuming.Please educate me if there is a more streamlined way to auto force documents into validation, but this would be a grea

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

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.   

I would like to have a manual bot place a file in a location that triggers bot1.last step of bot1 is to place a file in location to trigger bot2.  bot2 do same to trigger bot 3.Would this fail if any of the bots are not completed fully before trigger sees new file and tries to execute?running on a VM  and trigger location is a shared network drive.bot version 22.200.34

im trying to access https://community2.cloud-2.automationanywhere.digital/#/login? with my credentials and throw this message.I need to learn but im frustrated with this message.  

I tried to login through web, still its showing the same error.

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.  

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.

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:...

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. 

Starting a new thread here since i didn’t get a response.  I haven’t received any emails, nothing in spam,  waited hours/days.   can’t log in, someone please help.
