New features

Control Room new features
Feature Description
Automation Anywhere Control Room user interface localization A Control Room user can change the language of the application's user interface by selecting English (United States), French, Japanese, and Korean from the Control Room. See Control Room interface overview.
Password type attribute in Credential Vault (Zendesk # 48249, 49478,52363, 62880, 65358, 84852,100452, 138760, 138779, 141926, 178161) When creating a credential, you can now mark a specific attribute as a password type to ensure that a password-type attribute selection can only be made from the password field in the commands supporting the Credential Vault variables in the Enterprise Client interface. This feature enhances the security of credential variables because the password-type attributes are not exposed and the value cannot be printed in a plain text application.
Note: Existing bot users must modify their credential variable definition to use this feature. However, the bots require no modification.

See Create a credential.
Automatically discover domains and sites across single or multi-forest environments for Active Directory configuration. Introduced support for automatically discovering domains and sites by the Control Room when the administrator configures or updates Active Directory authentication. See Configuring Control Room for Active Directory: auto mode, Configuring Active Directory Settings, Reset LDAP user credentials
Added API to get the Scheduled Activity list in the Control Room Introduced an API to get the Scheduled Activity list, also available from the Activity > Scheduled page of the Control Room.
Provision to communicate with changed database password without reinstalling the Control Room (Zendesk #124537) When the database password is changed, the Automation Anywhere Enterprise can now communicate with the database without reinstalling the Control Room.

  • The validity of the API key for authentication is controlled from the Control Room Settings page. See Configuration settings.
  • Control Room users with appropriate permissions can generate the API key from their user profile page.
Configure callback URLs for the Bot Deployment API to send bot execution status and bot output Control Room administrators can now configure callback URLs for the Bot Deployment API on the Control Room Settings page. Use the callback URLs to send the bot success, failure, and reason for failure after the bot finishes execution. See ../control-room/administration/settings/configuration-settings.html#mxf1682866149197__call-back-url.
Tag variables in a Bot for data output Introduced a setting-based API for bot deployment so a Bot Creator can tag variables in a bot for data output.

Enterprise Client new features
Feature Description
Support to recognize Asian languages using Automation Anywhere Enterprise ABBY OCR engine. (Zendesk # 137375) Automation Anywhere Enterprise with ABBY OCR engine is now able to recognize Asian languages like Korean.
Password type attribute in Credential Vault supported commands (Zendesk # 48249, 49478,52363, 62880, 65358, 84852,100452, 138760, 138779, 141926, 178161)

You can now ensure that when creating a credential in the Control Room, a password-type attribute can only be selected from a password field in the commands supporting Credential Vault variables, by selecting the This is a password attribute. This feature enhances the security of credential variables because the password-type attributes are not exposed and their values cannot be printed in a plain text application.

See Credential variables.
Override default browser and choose browser to use (Zendesk #109820, 26502)

Using the Override default browser option in the Launch Website command, a bot developer can now choose the browser to use and override the default browser setting of the system.

The supported browsers are Google Chrome, Microsoft Internet Explorer, and Microsoft Edge. See Enterprise 11: Launch Website command.
Extract custom table control from Flex application The Object cloning command now enables you to extract the custom table control from the specific Flex application and export it to a .CSV file.
Switch Terminal Emulator logs generation You can now enable and disable the generation of Terminal Emulator logs for mainframe terminals using Advanced Technology during bot execution to capture only the required logs to share for analysis. This preserves user-sensitive information and does not capture the username and password.
Support SOAP Version 1.2 in SOAP Web Service command The SOAP Web Service command now supports SOAP Version 1.2, which uses the content type application/soap+xml and charset utf-8, in addition to SOAP Version 1.1, which uses the content type text/xml. You can now specify the SOAP Version to use in the SOAP Web Service command to call the corresponding web service instead of writing a separate JavaScript to call the same web service.
Improved action of MetaBot with Outlook web application You can now capture the Microsoft Outlook web application using a MetaBot and do a Click using MetaBot Logic.
