Anyone having problems reading fillable pdf forms? Depending on the app used to open the pdf form (adobe, foxit, browser) we see different data in the fields

We created an adobe fillable form the customers use to make payments on invoices. in practice they typically reuse the last PDF form sent. Make a copy Edit the form with new payment value and invoice Remittance advice. the problem is that when the bot runs and collects the data it gets old values. When the pdf is opened in the browser we typically see the latest values entered. but, when the bot runs or we use adobe to view the pdf the fields show different values. When i use the PDF Form template to configure the bot I also see older values in the fields as sample data. When i use the PDF get text none of the data fields are returned in the text image. I suppose i expect this result since i assume the fillable data is stored elsewhere in the file separate from the text data.

Merging Multiple PDF documents A360

Using A360, I am struggling to merge multiple pdf documents. The exact number of documents is variable. Therefore, the activity PDF: Merge Documents is not suitable because it requires the bot developer to declare ahead of time the documents to merge. I’ve even tries the bot store PDFUtils. The “Merge all PDF files” action works, however I can’t sort which order the documents should be merged into, so the final file shows out of page order. I’ve also tried the PDFUtils: Merge PDF files but receive an error as if the package is not working correctly. Thank you very much for any help and advice! It is greatly appreciated as this issue has stalled bot development for our use case.

Scraping URLs from Google Search Results

I’m trying to build a bot in A360 that searches a string in Google and clicks on each of the links that are returned. The issue is that Google randomises the path each time so it’s almost impossible to loop through each of the links using a counter in domx/path. I also looked at scraping URLs from the source code but it’s all embedded in js. Any ideas?

Retrieving WorkItem Id and Queue name on Bot run

We use the WLM to run our bots. The bot is linked to the WorkItem Template. The Queue is also paired with the bot. The bot automatically has the record variable workItem. Is there an easy way to retrieve the queue name and workItem ID when that bot runs? Perhaps a parameter to the variable? I’m thinking this information has to be easily obtainable in some fashion. Any help is greatly appreciated!Jaye

oAuth credentials in the control room

oAuth on the control roomcurrently, we have each Bot doing oAuth authentication from stored credentials. Which means that the first time a Bot runs unattended, someone has to manually authorize the logins. Subsequent runs seem to work fine. But I'm pretty sure Google expires those oAuth tokens at some point. It would be nice not to have to manually re-enable those logins.

Issue with Automation Anywhere Bot: Slow Responses in SAP Interaction

Hi everyone,I'm encountering a rather strange situation with an Automation Anywhere bot I've implemented. The bot interacts with SAP using AA's native package to send commands like export table or send key. However, I've noticed that these commands seem to be "frozen" or significantly slowed down compared to before, with SAP response times noticeably degraded.What's even more puzzling is that it seems when I connect to the machine via RDP, the situation suddenly improves. I'm wondering if this is just a coincidence or if it could actually be the case. Additionally, I'm considering whether these SAP slowdowns might be related to some infrastructure issues, such as network problems, system resource limitations, or VDI configurations.If anyone has experienced something similar or has insights into what could be causing this behavior, I'd really appreciate any suggestions or advice.Thanks in advance!
