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.
