process automation.
Note:
|
Improved visibility for Generative AI
fallback
Citizen Developers and Professional developers can now easily move the fallback notification dialogue window at the desired location on the screen according their needs and preferences thus improving the visibility of their business application and the fallback. |
Caching of successful Generative
AI responses
The Generative AI calls made during successful Generative AI-based
fallbacks are now cached in the system memory and the region-based
service which are then reused for subsequent executions of the same
automation. Hence, the time taken for subsequent executions of the same
automation is reduced significantly thus improving performance.
Note: Native fallbacks are cached only in the system
memory.

VMware-based automation is supported for all VMware protocols, viz VMware Blast, PCoIP, and Microsoft RDP. This eliminates the requirement for any security exceptions by IT administrators. VMware-based automation is supported for Web applications, Java applications and applications built on Microsoft Active Accessibility or UI Automation technologies. |
Improved
performance when automating applications with multiple
controls
When you use UI automation technology to automate window applications with more number of UI elements, you can now use the new IsFirst object property to enable the bot to detect the first object whose ID matches your search criteria. This improves the performance of your bot because the bot no longer needs to traverse the entire tree to match every control based on your search criteria, which would otherwise take more time and impact the performance of your bot. You can use the IsFirst object property when an object does not have a unique Automation ID and when the object hierarchy changes in the application. |
