Core Uipath Skills

No comments

 




The core skills for using UiPath, a popular RPA (Robotic Process Automation) tool, include:

1.      Understanding of workflow design and automation processes.

2.      Knowledge of the UiPath Studio and its components (e.g. UI automations, workflows, data manipulation, and managing packages).

3.      Ability to use selectors and activities to automate tasks.

4.      Understanding of UiPath’s data types, variables, and arguments.

5.      Familiarity with debugging and exception handling.

6.      Knowledge of integrations with other tools and technologies.

7.      Understanding of security and governance best practices.

Additionally, having programming experience and knowledge of .NET framework can be beneficial when working with UiPath.

 

Uipath provide a platform for easily automating target system like web browser, desktop app. ,Excel, PDF, OCR, mainframe, database ,API. You would not always automate all of those target system in every project

Let’s start with a few core skills that should occur in every project

  •         Project structure & containers (Sequence, flowchart, etc.)
  •         Bot Communication like log message, display message box, send mail
  •         Looping to repeat task
  •         Reusable workflow
  •         Variable.
  •         Debugging
  •         Orchestrator folder and assets 

 

Project structure & containers

·        Sequence: - A sequence in UiPath is a container that holds a list of activities, which can be arranged in a specific order to perform a specific task. The activities inside a sequence are executed one after the other, and the outcome of one activity can be used as input for another activity. The sequence structure allows you to break complex processes into smaller, manageable steps, making it easier to understand, design, and test your automation.

·        Flow chart: -  Flowcharts in UiPath are diagrams that visually represent a process, including the steps involved, decision points, and the flow of control. Flowcharts can be used to design and model workflows, understand complex processes, and improve processes by identifying bottlenecks and inefficiencies. In UiPath, flowcharts can be created using the built-in Flowchart activities, which can be found in the "Flowchart" category in the Activities panel.

·        State machine: -  A state machine in UiPath is a type of workflow structure that allows automating tasks by modelling the process as a series of states and transitions between these states. It enables creating a set of states and transitions to represent the various steps of a process, and determines the conditions for moving from one state to another. This structure can be used for automating tasks that require different actions based on the current state of the process, such as error handling or branching logic. State machines can be created using the State Machine activity in UiPath Studio.
