Generating a process from a large, complex, or sophisticated BPMN file is not supported and will result in a transformation failure. Processes cannot be generated from BPMN files that contain embedded processes or gateways.

Review the considerations listed in this topic when transforming BPMN files with Autopilot.

  • To ensure your BPMN file loads correctly, use a BPMN 2.0-compliant editor such as https://bpmn.io.
  • Since multiple processes are not supported within a BPMN file, ensure your BPMN file contains only a single process before uploading.
  • Ensure your BPMN file does not contain embedded processes or swimlanes, as they are not supported.
  • The automation outline will only include information provided in the text within the BPMN file. To clarify the automation actions for each task, add text annotations to the tasks as needed.
  • The automation outline created will only have the information from the prose within the BPMN to work with. Add text annotations to tasks to elaborate on the automation actions to be performed within the task.
  • Your BPMN file must have fully connected flows, as orphaned flows are not supported during conversion. Separate any non-connected flows into individual BPMN files.
