2.15.0

  • Compatible Bot Agent version: 20.11 or later
  • Compatible Control Room version: 8750 or later
Fix
You can now create a bot using Google Drive > Find file/folder action to find files or folders in your Google Drive.

Previously, when you created a bot using the Find file/folder action, provided the source folder path with the Match type option set as Exactly matches, and specified the name of the file or folder that you want to locate, the bot did not retrieve the valid file match on execution.

Fix

When you use the Upload file action in the Google Drive package to upload a file from your computer to Google Drive and then create a variable to hold the ID of the uploaded file, the bot no longer returns an empty string as file id.

Previously the bot returned an empty value as an uploaded file id.
