1. What is RPA?

Answer: Robotic Process Automation is a type of automation where a machine or computer mimics a human‟s
action in completing rule based tasks. It is used to automate business process.
Automate the business process by robot is known as RPA.

2. What is RPA LIFE CYCLE?

Phases of RPA Life Cycle:
Analysis: The first phase in RPA begins with analysis. Business team and RPA Architect work together to
understand a business process for RPA development.
Bot Development: RPA developer (Team) starts working on the requirement in their environment possibly a
distinct development environment.
Testing: Some companies conduct Testing by Separate Testing Team, while some have a dedicated testing
team which performs a dedicated QA like normal SDLC flow. Best Practice is to have a dedicated testing team
which performs QA of a developed bot.
Deployment and Maintenance: After the Development and Testing phases, a bot is ready for distribution and
enters maintenance phase.
This question is frequently asked in RPA interviews. You should know the RPA Life Cycle.

3.How many projects you have completed in RPA?

Its depend on candidate for interview

4. Why UiPath is best in RPA?

Answer: Uipath RPA is an enterprise computing platform dedicated to automating business process.
It provides the below options full compliance with the enterprise security and governance.
 Process modelling
 Change Management
 Deployment Management
 Access Control
 Remote Execution
 Scheduling

5. Components of Uipath?
UiPath Platform consists of three main components:
UiPath Studio:- UiPath Studio is a complete solution for application integration, and automating third-party
applications, administrative IT tasks and business IT processes.

UiPath Robot- UiPath Robots are a fundamental component of the UiPath Enterprise RPA Platform. Robots
execute the automation workflow designed in UiPath Studio and can be centrally managed from UiPath
Orchestrator.
UiPath Orchestrator- UiPath Orchestrator is a web application that enables you to orchestrate your UiPath
Robots in executing repetitive business processes.
Orchestrator manage the creation, monitoring, and deployment of resources in your environment, acting in the
same as an integration point with third-party solutions and applications.

6. Types of Workflows in UiPath?

a) Sequences – The sequence is actually the small type of projects which are suitable mainly for linear
processes & will enable you to switch from one activity to another seamlessly. It actually acts as a single
activity block. We can reuse them for many times.
b) Flowchart – It helps in large jobs as well as in small projects & you can also use them in different projects
Flowcharts help in presenting multiple branching of logical operators, helps in building complex business & for
connecting the activities in many ways.
c) State Machine – when a machine is using a certain number of states for automation during the execution it is
known as the state machine. it will only switch from one state to another if any action is triggered.

7. What is difference between Attended & Unattended bot?

a) Attended – works on the same workstation as a human user and is usually triggered by the user through their
actions (user events). You cannot start processes from Orchestrator on this type of Robots, and they cannot run
under a locked screen. They can be started only from the Robot tray.
b) Unattended – Runs unattended in virtual environments and can automate any number of processes. On top
of the Attended Robot capabilities, this Robot is responsible for remote execution, monitoring, scheduling and
providing support for work queues.

8. Which type of challenges you have faced in Uipath?

Its depend on candidate to candidate experience.

9. What are the benefits of using RPA?

Benefits of using RPA
1.It Saves Cost: Since it can automate almost all manual and repetitive tasks, you can reduce the size of your
workforce and hence reduce costs.
2.More Accurate in Lesser Time: To err is human, but computers or machines don‟t commit any mistakes, they
do exactly as they are told and hence are more accurate.
3.Easy to Implement and learn: Like earlier stated, there is no coding required. Any automation can be created
using a simple drag and drop.
4.No Coding Required!: RPA can be implemented to automate any repetitive process which is done on a
computer. This process can be related to any desktop tool or web application, if the process is repetitive it can
be automated, that too with minimum coding required.

10. On Which version of Uipath tool you have worked?

It‟s depending on candidate experience.
You can say like I have started working on 2016.6, 2017.6,2018.4, 2019.4

11. Which types of documents you have created in Uipath?

Most used documents is PDD (ASIS & TOBE ),SDD(TDD),BRD

12. How many processes you have automated in Uipath?

Its depend on candidate experience.

13.How many tools you have used till now?

Its depend on candidate how many tool you have used till now.

14. Have you done any certification in Rpa?

There are three major certifications of different vendor like Uipath, Automation Anywhere & Blueprism.

15. What is Ui-path Automation?

Uipath is process Automation vendor through that tool we can automate any type of process.

16. What is difference between Test Automation & Process Automation?

Test Automation –For testing purpose we automate the application & getting the result that how many test cases
is pass & fail
Process Automation –Automating the process without human intervention is called Process automation.

17.How many types of variable & direction of argument you have used till now?
Mostly used variable are:-
String, Int32, Double, Data Table, Array, List ,Generic Value ,Boolean
For more variable you can click browse for types in variable panel.
Direction of Argument:-
In ,Out, In/Out

18 .Do you know Date & time function?

There are lots of functions in .net for date & time.

19. Difference between Array, List & Enumeration?

a)Array:- The array variable is a type of variable which enables you to store multiple values of the same type.
UiPath Studio supports as many types of arrays as it does types of variables. This means that you can create an
array of numbers, one of strings, one of Boolean values and so on.
b) List :- If you want to work with a collection that doesn‟t have fixed number of elements ,you can use a list
instead of any array.
c)Enumeration- It is fixed data type.

20. What is value & type of scope used in UiPath?

Value –Value is input method where we provide the input.

21. What is difference between Sequences, Flowchart & State Machine?

a) Sequence:-The sequence is actually the small type of projects which are suitable mainly for linear processes
& will enable you to switch from one activity to another seamlessly. It actually acts as a single activity block.
We can reuse them for many times.

b)Flowchart –It helps in large jobs as well as in small projects & you can also use them in different projects
Flowcharts help in presenting multiple branching of logical operators, helps in building complex business & for
connecting the activities in many ways.
Flow Switch & flow decision are same things but it has one difference & that is in the flow switch each branch
of flow switch is known as flow step & it is not just restricted to true or false.

C) State machine-when a machine is using a certain number of states for automation during the execution it is
known as the state machine. it will only switch from one state to another if any action is triggered.

22. What are properties in UiPath?

There are multiple activities that can be used to automate apps or web-apps and you can find them in
the Activities panel, under the UI Automation category.
All of these activities have multiple properties in common:
ContinueOnError – If the ContinueOnError field of an activity inside a Try Catch is set to True, no error is
caught when the project is executed.
DelayAfter – adds a pause after the activity, in milliseconds.
DelayBefore – adds a pause before the activity, in milliseconds.
TimeoutMS – specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) to wait for a specified element to be found before
an error is thrown. The default value is 30000 milliseconds (30 seconds).
WaitForReady – Before performing the actions, wait for the target to become ready. The following options are
available:

23. What is branching in Uipath?

For connecting the activities we are using the branch in Flowchart.

24. What is Selector & types of selector?

To automate specific actions in the user interface, you are required to interact with various windows, buttons,
drop-down lists and many others. Most RPA products do this by relying on the screen position of UI elements, a
method that is not at all dependable.
To overcome this problem, UiPath Studio uses what we call selectors.
Wildcards are symbols that enable you to replace zero or multiple characters in a string.

25. Types of Wildcards in UiPath?

Asterisk (*) – replaces zero or more characters
Question mark (?) – replaces a single character
26. Difference between Full & partial Selector.
Full selectors:
Contain all the elements needed to identify a UI element, including the top-level window
Generated by the Basic recorder
Recommended when switching between multiple windows
Partial selectors:
Generated by the Desktop recorder
Do not contain information about the top-level window
Activities containing partial selectors are enclosed in a container (Attach Browser or Attach Window) that
contains a full selector of the top-level window
Recommended when performing multiple actions in the same window
Example of a partial selector for the editable panel in Notepad:

27. What is Uipath Explorer?

UI Explorer is an advanced tool that enables you to create a custom selector for a specific UI element. It is
available only if the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities package is installed as a dependency to the project.
To open the UI Explorer window, click the button in the Selectors section, in the Design tab.

28. What is Automatic Recording in UiPath?

Automatic recording is very useful and time-saving as it can provide you with a skeleton for your business
processes, and can be easily customized and parameterized.

29. Types of recordings available in Uipath?

a)Basic:- generates a full selector for each activity and no container, the resulted automation is slower than one
that uses containers and is suitable for single activities.
b)Desktop: suitable for all types of desktop apps and multiple actions; it is faster than the Basic recorder, and
generates a container (with the selector of the top-level window) in which activities are enclosed, and partial
selectors for each activity.
c) Web:-designed for recording in web apps and browsers (supported: Internet Explorer, Google Chrome),
generates containers and uses the Simulate Type/Click input method by default.
d)Citrix :- used to record virtualized environments (VNC, virtual machines, Citrix, etc.) or SAP, permits only
image, text and keyboard automation, and requires explicit positioning.

30. What is manage package in UiPath?

The package manager functionality enables you to download activity packages, libraries, frameworks, wrappers
and others, view the ones already installed on your computer and update them, as well as add and remove your
own.
These features are available through the Manage Packages window that you can open by clicking the Manage
Packages button on the Activities panel.

31. How to publish any project in UiPath?

Publishing an automation project means archiving the workflow and all the other files in the folder so that it can
be sent to Robots and then executed.
Additionally, automation projects may be published to a custom NuGet feed, with the option to also add a n API
key if the feed requires authentication.
Publishing projects locally requires you to provide a path on the local machine, different than the location where
process packages are published. From here, you can later manually send the packages to the Robots, so they can
be executed. The default local publish location is %ProgramData%\\UiPath\\Packages.

32. How to run bot through robot?

If development is completed, we will deploy bot to orchestrator, So that‟s why we will publish that & connect
orchestrator through robot, we will provide all the data in uipath robot setting.

operating the virtual machine.

40. What is difference between thin & thick client?

Thin client: It is an application that we cannot get the quality properties while spying using any RPA tool
.e.g. Any virtual environment.
Thick client: It is an application that we get a pretty handful of attribute features using RPA tool e.g. calculator,
Internet Explorer.

41. How many activities you have used in UiPath?

There are almost 400 activity available in UiPath, Depend on your experience

42. Have you automated virtual machine?

A virtual machine(VM) is an emulation of a computer System. Virtual machine are based on computer
Architecture & provide functionality of a physical computer. Examples of such as citrix,RDP, Microsoft Azure
etc.
As the click activity is not reliable in not very reliable in virtualized environments.

43. What is debugging in Uipath?

Debugging is the process of identifying and removing errors from a given project. Coupled with logging, it
becomes a powerful functionality that offers you information about your project and step-by-step highlighting,
so that you can be sure that it is error-free. Logging enables you to display details about what is happening in
your project in the Output panel. This, in turn, makes it easier for you to debug an automation. Breakpoints
enable you to pause the execution of a project so that you can check its state at a given point.
44. Difference between Step into & Step over in Uipath?
Step into we use for step by step running the program & step over for fast execution.

45. What are arguments in Uipath & directions of Argument?

Arguments are used to pass data from a workflow to another Workflow. They have specific directions
In/Out/InOut.Arguments are used to pass data from a project to another. Additionally, arguments have
specific directions (In, Out, In/Out, Property)
IN – Which means they are passed in and not returned.
OUT – A parameter marked OUT usually means that the value of the parameter when it is being passed to the
function is not of any importance.
In fact, if it being passed by pointer, it may even be required to be NULL, and the function will allocate
memory and pass a value back to you. Assign activity is required for this type of argument otherwise this
argument will not take any value.
An IN/OUT parameter usually indicates something where both the input and output values are meaningful.

46. What is Switch & flow switch In Uipath?

The Switch activity enables you to select one choice out of multiple, based on the value of a specified
expression.
A FlowSwitch activity works like a FlowDecision except instead of being restricted to a True and False branch.
Each branch of a FlowSwitch activity is called a FlowStep.

47. What is difference between for each, for each row & parallel For each?
For Each– allow you to iterate through a collection of items. It can be an array, a list, a datatable etc.
For each row-When using For each you need to specify the data type and because you might need to iterate
through a datatable more often you have the specific Activities for Data tables.
Parallel for Each-Asynchronously executes a series of activities on each element of an enumeration, in parallel.
Yes, I have worked on the virtual machine automation previously.

48. What is Exception Handling?

Exception Handling mainly deals with handling errors with respect to various activities in UiPath. The Error
Handling activity offers four options: Rethrow, Terminate Workflow, Throw, Try Catch.

49. What is difference between Throw, Rethrow & terminate workflow?

Rethrow is used when you want activities to occur before the exception is thrown.
Terminate workflow is used to terminate the workflow the moment the task encounters an error.
Throw activity is used when you want to throw error before the execution of the step.

50. How you have handled exception in your project?

Its depend on your project, you have to tell about your project exception handling process.

51. What is difference between Try, Catch & Finally?

To solve such kind of errors, you can use a Try-Catch block. So, you can put the browser part in the Try section,
and then either put a Message box or any other activity in the catch section. After this is done, you can mention
the necessary activities, in the Finally block. So these activities would be executed after the Try-Catch block.

52. What is difference between Data scrapping & screen scrapping?

Data scraping enables you to extract structured data from your browser, application or document to a database ,
.csv file or even Excel spreadsheet.

Password and on Result select EmailPassword variabe.
Next, drag and drop Get IMAP Mail Message. Make the following changes:
 Set MailFolder to “Inbox”
 Port to 993
 Server to “imap.gmail.com”
 Email to EmailAddress variable
 Password to EmailPassword variable
 Top to 10 (get the first 10 emails)
 Save the Messages to MailMessages variable
Drag and drop a new For Each activity and inside of it drop an If activity. It should look like this:

For each item in the MailMessages check if the subject contains a specific word. For example, get emails with a
request word in the subject. Use Contains method.
item.Subject.ToLower.Contains(“request”)
Inside Then branch drag and drop the Save Attachment activity. Set the Message as item variable and select
the path where to download the email attachment.

If you want to download only specific files use the Filter option on Save Attachment activity. For example, if
you want to download only .jpg and .png files use this regular expression as a filter:
“^.+.(([pP][nN][gG])|([jJ][pP][gG]))$”

Before running the email automation please configure your Gmail account for IMAP/POP3
protocols and generate and use an App password from Google.

 Standard Robot works on a single Standard Machine only, namely the one defined while creating it. This is
ideal for the scenario in which a user always works on the same machine.
 Floating Robot works on any machine defined in Orchestrator, be it Standard or Template, as the machine name
is not relevant while creating it. Only Attended and Development Robots can be floating.
 A Standard robot can be converted into a Floating Robot by using Convert to Floating button displayed
alongside Standard Robot.

78. Different between Process, job, Scheduler, asset & queue?

c)process:- The Packages page displays all the projects published from UiPath Studio, as well as the ones that
were manually uploaded. For more information, see Publishing a Project from Studio to Orchestrator. A project
becomes a package when it is published to Orchestrator from Studio.
d)Job:- A job is the execution of a process on one or multiple Robots. After creating a process (deploying a
package to an environment), the next step is to execute it with the assigned Robots. This can be done manually
from the Jobs page or in a preplanned manner, from the Schedules page.
e)Schedular:- Schedules enable you to execute jobs in a preplanned manner, at regular intervals on Robots. You
can assign Robots to perform different schedules according to the following options:
f)Asset:- Assets usually represent shared variables or credentials that can be used in different automation
projects. They give you the opportunity to store specific information so that the Robots can easily have acce ss
to it. Int, Credential, Boolean, Text
g)Queue:- A queue is a container that enables you to hold an unlimited number of items. Queue items can store
multiple types of data, such as invoice information or customer details. This information can be processe d in
other systems – SAP or Salesforce, for instance.

b)Busy- The Robot is running a process
c)Disconnected:- The Robot and Orchestrator have not communicated in the last two minutes;
d)Unresponsive – The UiPath Robot service is not running.

100.Queue Status:-
a)New:- the item has just been added to the queue with the Add Queue Item activity, or the item was postponed
or a deadline was added to it.
b) In Progress:- the item was processed with the Get Transaction Item or the Add Transaction Item activity;
when an item has this status, your custom progress status is also displayed, in the Progress column
c) Failed – the item did not meet a business or application requirement within the project and was therefore sent
to a Set Transaction Status activity, which changed its status to Failed
d) Successful – the item was processed and sent to a Set Transaction Status activity, which changed its status
to Successful
e) Abandoned – the item remained in the In Progress status for a long period of time (approx. 24 hours) without
being processed
f) Retried – the item failed with an application exception and was retried. After the Robot finishes retrying the
item, the status changes to Failed or Successful, according to your workflow.
g) Deleted – the item has been manually selected from the Transactions page and marked as deleted; an item
with this status can no longer be processed.

To create an RPA bot, we need to follow the below-mentioned steps:
Record a task
Perform the bot implementation
Test the bot
Upload the bot to execute the automation tasks

104. What are the characteristics of RPA?

The following are the characteristics of RPA:
User-friendly:Robotic Process Automation Softwares are usually very easy to use and understand. There is no
need to have special or extra knowledge for users to use RPA.
Not Disruptive:The process transformation in RPA is very simple and straightforward.
Coding is not required:No coding is required for the employees who work on RPA. They only need to have
knowledge regarding how the RPA works.
More efficient results in less time:They never make mistakes as humans do. Once you provide them with the
right data along with rules and regulations, they will execute the same without any errors.
Easy to use:The code required for automating tasks is minimal and not required anymore. So it can be done by
simply dragging and dropping into the system.

105. What are the factors that are encouraging the organizations to proceed with RPA according to you?
As of today most of the business organizations are adopting RPA and the following factors that drive most of
the organizations to adopt RPA are:
RPA always makes sure that it provides error-free results.
It can automate tasks as simple as the way we do copy-paste.
RPA robots provide an easy way to tackle activities accurately even if the employees are out of an organization.
RPA is only a one-time investment for an organization and results are forever.
Companies won‟t require any special attention for quality verification and testing.
It requires less human interaction which ensures no conflicts and fast operations.

106. Let us assume you need to handle an RPA project and provided inadequate skills to process, then
would you reject the project or find an alternative?
Leaving a project is not at all a correct decision. The fact is that there are many alternatives available
for RPA and most of the alternatives have a short duration. So, we can work on it or solve the problem and gain
additional skills required for the project by choosing alternatives. Support and alternatives play an important
role to assist in this type of projects.

107. What are the pros and cons of RPA according to you?
The pros of RPA are as follows:
Reduced errors
Greater productivity
Enhanced job satisfaction
Lower turnover
The cons of RPA are as follows:
Increase in complexities during implementation
Redundancy
A huge threat of unemployment

109. What is UiPath?

UiPath is an RPA Tool used for windows desktop automation. It is founded in the year 2005 by Romanian
entrepreneurs Daniel Dines and Marius Tirca. It is used to automate repetitive tasks. It also reduces the human
interventions.

110. How we connect with orchestrator?

Create Machine-> Open UiPath Robot-> Orchestrator Settings-> Enter the
Orchestrator URL, Machine Name and Machine Key-> Click Connect.

111. What are the types of Projects?

Multiple types of projects are available in Studio
Sequences – Sequences are the smallest type of project. Suitable to linear processes, enabling you to smoothly
go from one activity to another,
Flowcharts – suitable to a more complex business logic, enabling you to integrate decisions and connect
activities in a more diverse manner, through multiple branching logic operators.
State Machines – suitable for very large projects; it uses a finite number of states in its execution which are
triggered by a condition (transition) or activity and it exits that state when another activity is triggered.
Global Handler – The Global Exception Handler is a type of workflow designed to determine the project‟s
behavior when an execution error is encountered. Only one Global Exception Handler can be set per automation
project.

112. List out the sections available in UiPath.

Projects Panel
Activity Panel
Workflow Designer
Properties Panel

113. Types of Robots

The license that was chosen dictates a Robot‟s capabilities, as follows:
Attended– operates on the same workstation as a human, to help the user accomplish daily tasks. It is usually
triggered by user events.
You cannot start a process from Orchestrator on this type of Robots, and they cannot run under a locked
screen. They can be started only from the Robot tray or from the Command Prompt. Attended Robots
should only run under human supervision.
Unattended– run unattended i.e. without human intervention/ support in virtual environments and can automate
any number of processes.
Non-Production– retains all the features of the Unattended Robot, but it should be used onlyfor development
and testing purposes.
Development– has the features of an Unattended Robot, but it should be used only to connect your Studio to
Orchestrator, for development purposes

114. What activities are used to read and send mail?

Microsoft Outlook:
Get Outlook Mail Message, Send Outlook Mail Message
Microsoft Exchange:
Get Exchange Mail Message, Send Exchange Mail Message
IBM Notes:
Get IBM Notes Mail Message, Send IBM Notes Mail Message
Gmail:
a) Get IMAP Mail Message
b) Get POP3 Mail Message
c) Send SMTP Mail Message

115. What are input methods?

Input actions required by the user or the robot, to directly interact with an open application or web page.
There are three types of input methods for click and type action:
a) Default Method: – It is the slowest input method. It does not support background execution. It supports
HotKey (Sending keyboard shortcuts to a UI element)
b) Send WindowsMessage– it supports background execution and HotKeys
c) Simulate Type / Key– This is the fastest of the three and works in the background also. It is compatible with
99% web apps and 60% desktop apps. It does not support hotkeys.

116. What are output methods?

Output or screen scraping methods refer to those activities that enable you to extract data from a specified UI
element or document, such as a .pdf file.
FullText is the default method. It is fastest and accurate, and works in background execution. it cannot extract
the screen coordinates of the text, but can extract hidden text. It works only with desktop applications. This
method is used by “Get Full Text” activity.
Native method is accurate and faster than OCR. It can extract text position but cannot extract hidden text. It
does not support background execution and Citrix. This method is used by “Get Text” activity.
OCR is not 100% accurate, but can be useful to extract text that the other two methods could not, as it works
with all applications including Citrix. It can extract Text position.

117. What is asset and why we need it?

Assets usually represent shared variables or credentials that can be used in different automation projects. They
give you the opportunity to store specific information so that the Robots can easily have access to it.
An extra level of security is provided, as all credentials stored here are encrypted with the AES 256 algorithm.
They can be invoked by RPA developers when designing a process, but their values can be hidden from them.

118. What is package and processes?

The Packages page displays all the projects published from UiPath Studio, as well as the ones that were
manually uploaded.
On this page, a user can view and delete versions of all the packages that had been published from UiPath
Studio, as well as those that were uploaded manually.
A process represents the association between a package and an environment. Each time a package is linked to
an environment, it becomes available for all the Robot machines that belong to that environment.
The Processes page enables you to deploy an uploaded package to Robot environments, manage previously
created associations and keep all your processes up to date. This helps you distribute packages on the Robot
machines and execute processes faster from the Jobs.

119. What is job?

An Orchestration Job is a Job whose sole responsibility is to orchestrate the execution of other Jobs, that is, to
execute a Job, wait for it to finish, execute the next Job on successful completion, or handle errors should the
Job fail.

120. What is RE Framework and explain its components?

RE Framework is a framework provided by UiPath to help developers build processes quicker and apply best
practice principles. It gives you the fundamental code to create more robust processes. This involves clean starts
and exists, automated recoveries, retries, status management, logging and clean coding.
Init: read configuration, initialize applications
Get Transaction state– Read transaction item from Queue
Process state– Process the transaction item
End State– Close all applications

121. What are the projects you have worked on? What are difficulties faced and how did you overcome
them?
It depends on Answers of candidate. Also Explain difficulties faced and how did they overcome them.

122. What is machine and why it is used?

The Machines page enables you to provision and manage machines, with the purpose of further using them to
register Robots to Orchestrator. It displays the existing machines and their types. It enables you to create your
own machine, be it Standard or Template.
a) Standard Machine
It should be used when the name of the machine on which you want to define Robots remains the same each
time you connect to it. You define the machine once, and then can connect to any number of Robots in
the Robots page.
b) Machine Template
It should be used when the name of the machine on which you want to define Robots changes every time. You
define this entity once and then connect to any number of Attended Floating Robots using a unique Active
Directory username.
The Machines page in Orchestrator enables you to provision and manage machines, with the purpose of further
using them to register Robots to Orchestrator. It displays the existing machines and their types. It enables you to
create your own machine, be it Standard or Template.

123. What is difference between workbook read range and excel read range?
Excel read range must be used in Excel Application Scope only whereas Workbook Read range do not need
Excel sheet to be opened.
To use excel read range activity we must have MS Excel installed on the machine whereas we don‟t need excel
installed for workbook read range.

124. Do we need excel installed on system when we use workbook read range activity?
No.

125. What are pdf activities used to get text from an image?
Read PDF Text
Read PDF with OCR

126. What is switch flow?

A Flowchart specific activity that splits the control flow into three or more branches, out of which a single one
is executed based on a specified condition.

127. What is Queue? Use case of Queue?

Queue is a list of items that you want to be processed by Robots. When you create a queue in Orchestrator, it is
empty. To populate the queue with items, change their status and process them, you have to use activities from
Studio.
A queue is a container that enables you to hold an unlimited number of items. Queue items can store multiple
types of data, such as invoice information or customer details. This information can be processed in other
systems – SAP or Salesforce, for instance.
The Queues page enables you to create queues, view information about queue items (such as average execution
time and the total number of successful transactions), display charts with the transaction status progress over
time.
Queues enable you to create large automation projects underlined by complex logic. For example, you can
create a process that collects all invoice information and creates a queue item for each piece of data to store it.
Subsequently, you can create another process that gathers the information from Orchestrator, and uses it to
perform additional tasks, such as paying the invoices in a different application, postponing their payment
according to their due date or value, sending emails to the accounting team every time a bill is paid, etc.

128. What are activities used in Queues?

The following activities from Studio are used with queues:
Add Queue Item– populates the queue with items and defines a time frame when these items must be
processed. By default, when an item is added to the queue its status is New.
Get Transaction Item – gets an item from the queue so that you can process it (start the transaction) and sets
its status to In Progress.
Set Transaction Status– changes the status of the transaction item to Failed (with an Application or Business
Exception) or Successful. Application Exceptions should be used when the app you are automating fails, while
Business Exceptions should be used when a certain queue item value does not meet a business requirement.
Note:
Only items that fail with an Application Exception are retried (if you also configure the Auto-Retry options in
the queue, in Orchestrator).
Add Transaction Item– adds an item in the queue, starts the transaction and sets the status to In Progress.
Postpone Transaction Item– adds time parameters between which a transaction must be processed (not
before Defer Dateand no later than Due Date).
All these activities are part of the Core activities package, and can be found in the Activities panel,
under Orchestrator > Queues.
By default, the queue items that have been processed successfully are archived on a daily basis, while the others
remain in the queue so that you can decide what to do with them

129. What is Queue and Transaction?

Queue are type of Data and Transactions are Data for the Processing
For e.g., Queue – is Invoice Number – String type and Transactions are “INV132” each time Transactions will
be updated once it completed process

131. If there is a System exception in GetTransition Data State in REFramework? Which state in
REFramework stage would be executed next and Why?
If There is a System Exception in GetTransition Data State in ReFramework, End Process State is executed next
because as there will be no data to processed, So End Process state is executed.

132. What is Credentials Manager? How it is used in Project?

In Windows, you can view and manage your network-based logon credentials (i.e., usernames and passwords)
using Credential Manager.
With UiPath, you can automate the process of creating, querying and deleting the credentials through some
dedicated activities.
 To get credentials from the windows credential manager, you have to use the Get Secure Credential activity.

133. Which desktop application have you automated in UiPath?

 Automatic Data Entry into ExpenseIt Application from CSV file.
 Moving Files and Folder Automation
 PDF Data Extraction
 Automation of Order Management System application.
 Automation of CRM AnyTeller Application
 Automation of Inflow Inventory System Automation.

134.If suppose there are 2 excel and Each Excel contains 1000 records each. If Suppose 100 records is
added into Another Second Excel? How would you Compare and Fetch 100 Records from Excel?
Using Macro or Compare each row of one excel with each row of other excel.
Creating a comparison macro for excel file will be easier
Simply picking one record of excel file A and compare it with all the records of excel file B.
Using Vlookup Option
You can do it AA excel as database inner join between two sheets.

135. What is FTE

Full-time equivalent (FTE): the amount of work a full-time employee does in a department, or on a certain
project.
It is nothing but the number of employees who are doing manual activities and if you implement RPA how
many FTE you will save.

136.What is difference between mainframe and non-frame

Mainframe applications:
It‟s a single screen and keyboard-based application.
There are separate set in-built commands supported by Blue Prism especially for mainframe applications
Non-mainframe applications:
It includes multiple screens
Control moves from one screen to another screen.

137. I am your client, you give me two workflows one with activities and one with using recording. Which
one you suggest me to use and why?

I will suggest workflow with activities

Because in recording we can‟t get exact selectors, if we get exact selectors then we have to do all selectors as a
dynamic one… So it would be better to go with workflow with activities.

138. Suppose there is url which is dynamic? How would automate Url in UiPath Studio? What is solution
for dynamic url?
Use UiExplorer to get the exact selector and use dynamic selector using *, in url element for changing value.
And also you can use screen scraping to get the value.
For Example-:
In aaname you can assign as *
aaname=‟*‟ and title also *
Use the below selector
 <html app=‟chrome.exe‟ title=‟*‟ /> <Webctrl aaname=‟*‟ tag =‟SPAN‟/>

139. How will you handle Credentials?

 By using Credential manager – a window based application to save user credentials in secured
 By storing in – Orchestrator as Credential – variable type
 Just prompting as input box using – Get Secure text activity

140.Explain main components of Orchestrator?

 Processes: A process represents the association between a package and an environment. Each time a package is
linked to an environment, it is automatically distributed to all the Robot machines that belong to that
environment.
 Assets: Assets usually represent shared variables or credentials that can be used in different automation
projects. They give you the opportunity to store specific information so that the Robots can easily have access
to it.
 Queues: A queue is a container that enables you to hold an unlimited number of items. New queues created in
Orchestrator are empty by default and can store multiple types of data.
 Schedules: Schedules enable you to execute jobs in a pre-planned manner, at regular intervals on Robots. Input
values for processes which support input and output parameters can be managed at this level as well
 Robots: A Robot is an execution host that runs processes built in UiPath Studio. The Robotspage enables you
to add robots, edit them, view their status and other settings.
 Jobs: A job is the execution of a process on one or multiple Robots. After creating a process, the next step is to
execute it by creating a job. When creating a new job, you can assign it to specific Robots.
 Transactions: The Transactionspage displays the transactions from a given queue. It also shows their statuses,
the dates when they should be processed, the Robot that processed them, and the type of exception thrown or
assigned reference, if any.

141. How many .xaml have you created for your project? How would publish multiple Process to
Orchestrator?
The Answer to Question depends on candidate Project and number of processes that user creates for the Project.
Orchestrator will trigger based on the reference xaml given in project.jason file.
Main
The entry point of the automation project. It consists of an .xaml file. The default name is “Main.xaml”. It is
displayed both as the title of the Designer panel and in the Properties panel in Studio. If you want to execute a
different project first, change the value of this parameter to the name of the .xaml file to be processed.
Note : If your automation project contains multiple files, each of them should be linked to the Main.xaml file
through the Invoke Workflow File activity . This is especially useful when the project is published to
Orchestrator and sent to a Robot, as the Robot executes only the file provided in this parameter.
if you want to change entry point of xaml file you can change in this project.jason file.
„Project.json‟ is an automatically generated file which is included in the folder of each automation project made
in Studio. The file holds information about the project dependencies.

142. Suppose there are 5 different Processes, how would you schedule all these processes in Orchestrator?
We can schedule all 5 processes for one machine, One by one.. It will start process one by one.
If machine are different then 5 Processes can be scheduled simultaneously.
 Schedules enable you to execute jobs in a pre planned manner, at regular intervals on Robots. Input values for
processes which support input and output parameters can be managed at this level as well. You can assign
Robots to perform different schedules according to the following options:
 All Robots– Schedules are executed by all the Robots in a specific environment.
 Specific Robots– Schedules are executed by the Robots selected by the user.
 Allocate dynamically– Define how many times a process is to be executed according to the given schedule.
This option enables you to utilize your resources to their greatest extent. As soon as a Robot
becomes Available, it executes the indicated process according to the provided schedule.
The Schedules page enables you to create new schedules. It also displays all previously created schedules,
which can be further edited, enabled, or disabled.
You can view the jobs started by a specific schedule on the Jobs window, by selecting More Actions > View
jobs. A scheduled job can also be stopped after a custom amount of time with the Stop or Kill options on
the Actions tab.

143. What are Credentials? How credentials are used in your project?
Credentials are one of Asset types used in Orchestrator. They are used to store credentials in Orchestrator.
Credentials contains usernames and passwords that the Robot requires to execute particular processes, such as
login details for SAP or SalesForce and gmail credentials.
The Get Asset and Get Credential activities used in Studio request information from Orchestrator about a
specific asset, according to a provided AssetName. If the AssetName provided in Studio coincides with the
name of an asset stored in the Orchestrator database, and the Robot has the required permissions, the asset
information is retrieved and used by the Robot when executing the automation project.

144. What is LINQ? Use case of Linq?

LINQ (Language Integrated Query) is uniform query syntax in C# and VB.NET to retrieve data from different
sources and formats. We can retrieve data from list, arrays, datatables. It is integrated in C# or VB, thereby
eliminating the mismatch between programming languages and databases, as well as providing a single
querying interface for different types of data sources.
 For example, SQL is a Structured Query Language used to save and retrieve data from a database. In the same
way, LINQ is a structured query syntax built in C# and VB.NET to retrieve data from different types of data
sources such as collections, ADO.Net DataSet, XML Docs, web service and MS SQL Server and other
databases.
LINQ queries return results as objects. It enables you to uses object-oriented approach on the result set and not
to worry about transforming different formats of results into objects.
 Use case of LINQ in UiPath
LINQ Usage
LINQ queries return results as objects. It enables you to uses object-oriented approach on the result set and not
to worry about transforming different formats of results into objects.
The following example demonstrates a simple LINQ query that gets all strings from an array which contains „a‟.
Example: LINQ Query to Array
// Data source
string[] names = {“Bill”, “Steve”, “James”, “Mohan” };
// LINQ Query
var myLinqQuery = from name in names
where name.Contains(„a‟)
select name;
// Query execution
foreach(var name in myLinqQuery)
Console.Write(name + ” “);
 Try it
In the above example, string array names is a data source. The following is a LINQ query which is assigned to a
variable myLinqQuery.
from name in names
where name.Contains(„a‟)
select name;
The above query uses query syntax of LINQ.

146.Suppose there are 1000 rows and 50 columns, Suppose I want to select any random row data? How it
can be done?
Assign dtVariable = new DataTable
Initializing your DataTable variable
[Build your data table process]
Assign intRandom = new Random().Next(0, dtVariable.Rows.Count – 1)
This will give you a randomly generated number between 0 – N, where N = number of rows in your datatable
(i.e., a data table of 10 rows will result in a count of 10)
We subtract 1 because dtVariable.Rows.Count starts at 1, whereas dtVariable.Rows(index) starts at 0 (i.e., a
data table of 10 rows will result in an index max of 9).
Assign rowRandom = dtVariable.Rows(intRandom)
This will output a DataRow at random of DataRow type.

147. What are dynamic selectors? Types of Dynamic Selectors used in UiPath?

 The selector is a string of characters (VB expression) used to identify objects on the screen. The selector is one
of the properties of UI activities and has an XML format. All the activities in UiPath Studio related to graphical
elements have the selector property.
 The solution to this problem is to:
 Build better selectors
 Use WildCard
 To see the better and dynamic attributes compare the selectors and make dynamic them using wildcard
operators and identify reliable selectors using UIExplorer.
 Selectors attributes part contains all the attributes of an object. Not all can be added or removed from your
selector string, because not all of them are useful for identifying a certain object.
 The most important thing when choosing selectors is to pick those which always have a constant value. If the
value of an attribute changes, then the selector will not be able to correctly identify the element.
Attributes may change their values from time to time when the application‟s UI changes. When this happens,
part of the dynamic attributes often remain unchanged and we somehow have to specify the variable parts. This
can be done using wildcards:
1.* star means zero or more characters can be there. Example: title=‟* – Notepad‟.
2.? question mark means exactly one character. Example: title=„Expl?rer‟.
A direct consequence when using wildcards is the increased probability of there being more and more nodes
matching the Selector.

148. If you do not have excel installed on your system. How would you use excel activity in UiPath
Studio?
We can use Excel activity Workbook Read Range without installing Excel on System. As we don‟t need excel
installed for workbook read range activity.
 UiPath Studio offers you the possibility to work with Excel using specialized activities. These activities are
stored in the UiPath Excel activities package. The Excel package can be downloaded from “Manage Packages”
but it‟s by default installed when you install UiPath Studio.
Through this app integration approach you are able to read/write Excel documents.
Good points for not using the Excel application:
 You don‟t need to install/buy Microsoft Excel
 Excel application will not pop up on your desktop
 Suitable for robots that run on a machine that doesn‟t have a user interface.

149.What is port number of POP3 Gmail/ IMAP Gmail?

 Port number of POP3 Gmail is-: 993
 By default, the POP3protocol works on two ports:
 Port 110– this is the default POP3 unencrypted portPort 995– this is the port you need to use if you want to
connect using POP3 securely
 By default, the IMAPprotocol works on two ports:
 Port 143– this is the default IMAP unencrypted portPort 993– this is the port you need to use if you want to
connect using IMAP securely.

150. What is Port number of Smtp Gmail?

 SMTP Port– 587 (default Google SMTP port).
 Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server-: com
 Requires SSL:Yes
 Requires TLS:Yes (if available)
 Requires Authentication:Yes
 Port for SSL:465
 Port for TLS/STARTTLS:587

151. If suppose there is Image in PDF which is of 120 dp, how would extract data from that Image?
Which automation would be used?
To extract data from Image of Size 120 dp from PDF we need to use Read PDF with OCR activity, and
automation we need to use is PDF Automation.
We can also use Microsoft OCR activity to extract extract exact data from Image of the PDF file.

152. If Suppose there are 2 excels, how would merge 2 excel data into one?
1. Firstly we need to use Read Range to read the 2 excel files,
2. Then we need to use merge data table activity to merge the data table.
3. Then we need to use the resultant data table to make the merged excel file using WriteRange activity.

Fig no-: Merge Two DataTable using UiPath

153. If you have 1000 of data in queue and there are 5 robots you want to distribute data among them,
how you can do it without using queue activity
 To distribute 1000 records of data in queue on 5 robots among them without using queue activity, we need to
set up an Excel or CSV file that is in a shared location accessible by all your bots. Then have a column for
Status, and as a bot processes each row, they update that column to “In Progress” and save the file. Bots should
only process rows if column <> “In Progress”. We need to add other columns for tracking and logging, such as
Transaction IDs, Bot Name, Fail Reason, etc.

154. I have process of two different version how will you identify them at the time of deploying?
 To identify the process of two different versions at time of deploying we can identify by publishing Process
from Studio and we can choose the project version number.
 Also, within orchestrator, the package number will match the version number of published Process from Studio.
 Based on its version number we can identify it. At the time of publishing project from Uipath Studio and it
show new version number.

155. Can you update credentials stored in Assets in Orchestrator from UiPath Studio? If yes then how
you can update credentials?
 We can update Credentials stored in Assets in Orchestrator but not at runtime. We can update Credentials
manually before scheduling bot.
 We can allow user to update only specific assets. You can create a custom user role and give him permissions
only to asset editing, though. This is done through the /roles route on Orchestrator.
UiPath.Core.Activities.SetCredential
 Enables you to update the value of an indicated credential asset, that is already available in Orchestrator, be it a
global or a Per Robot asset. Please note that to execute this activity, the Robot role needs to
have Edit permissions on assets. The activity runs under the Robot which executes it.

156. How you can create bubble sort in uipath?

We can use Sort method available in Arrays methods. This is workflow for sorting data using array-:
Fig no-: 157 a) Sorting Using Invoke Workflow Activity
Fig no-: 157 (b) After Sorting Login Workflow.

157.Explain Uipath lifecycle?

A typical life cycle of UiPath RPA has 4 phases. Analysis, Bot Development, Testing, and Support &
Maintenance.
 Analysis– Business teams & RPA Architects work together to analyze a business process for RPA
development.
 Bot Development– Developer teams start working on developing the automated workflows for the
requirements in a distinct development environment.
 Testing– Run testing cycles such as SDLC to analyze the quality and correct defects.
 Support & Maintenance-After the development & testing phases, a bot enters the maintenance phases in
which it provides continuous support and helps in the immediate defect resolution.

158.What is macros in UiPath?

 Macro is a piece of programming code that runs in Excel environment and helps automate routine tasks. In a
layman‟s language, a macro is a recording of your routine steps in Excel that you can replay using a single
button.
⮚ Execute Macro
UiPath.Excel.Activities.ExecuteMacro
 Execute the macro within a workbook. The Workbook file needs to be a Macro-Enabled Workbook. Changes
are immediately saved. Can only be used in the Excel Application Scope
⮚ Properties
⮚ Input

MacroName – The name of the macro to be executed. Only String variables and strings are supported.
⮚ Note:
Strings must be placed between quotation marks.
 Macro Parameters– Enables you to pass parameters when executing the macro. This field supports
only IEnumerable<object> variables.
 Common
 DisplayName– The display name of the activity.
 ContinueOnError– Specifies if the automation should continue even when the activity throws an error. This
field only supports Boolean values (True, False). The default value is False. As a result, if the field is blank and
an error is thrown, the execution of the project stops. If the value is set to True, the execution of the project
continues regardless of any error.
Note:
If this activity is included in Try Catch and the value of the ContinueOnError property is True, no error is
caught when the project is executed.
Misc
 Private– If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.
Output
 Macro Output– The value returned by the execution of the macro, if any. This output is retrieved as Object
variables.
Example of Using the Execute Macro Activity
To exemplify how to use this activity, we have built an automation project that initializes a macro, asks the user
for its name and executes the macro.

 Click on Create argument line
To remove an argument:
 In the Arguments panel, select an argument or right-click on the argument and press „Delete‟

161.What are the different types of Logs? What are Log Fields?
There are two different types of Logs:
 Default logs
 Execution start
 Execution end
 Transaction start
 Transaction end
 Error log
 Debugging log
 User-defined logs
Log fields are Message, Level, Timestamp, FileName, jobId, processName, processVersion, windowsIdentity,
and robotName.

162. Difference Between screen scraping and data scraping

Screen scraping Data scraping

1.Used to extract non Structure data Used to extract the structured data
2.Scraped information stored in String Scraped information stored in Data table

3.Can not easily extract the data into excel or DB can extract the data to excel or DB easily
4. can extract image and pdf can not extract from image and PDF

163.How to convert a string variable into int?

We can use following method to covert string to int -Convert.ToInt32(String variable_name)
Ex)
String age= 23;
int patient_age=Convert.ToInt32(age)

164. Whats mean by Generic variable in Uipath?

Its a special variable can store any kind of datatypes like string, int, dates format, and arrays.
This variable only in Uipath only.

165. Is it possible to create a variable without the activity of the designer panel?
No, is it not possible, we need to create an activity at least once

They can be recognized through the attributes of UI elements.

198. What is state machine in UiPath?

A State Machine is a type of automation that uses a finite number of states in its execution. It can go into a state
when it is triggered by an activity, and it exits that state when another activity is triggered. They also enable us
to add conditions based on which to jump from one state to another. These are represented by arrows or
branches between states.

199. What are sequence activities in UiPath?

The sequence is actually the small type of projects which are suitable mainly for linear processes and will
enable you to switch from one activity to the another seamlessly. It actually acts as a single activity block. You
can reuse them for many times.

having more than one solution occurs after a certain condition. Condition statement will help the program to
determine what behavior should be shown when any condition will be selected.

208. Explain about Recording in UiPath Studio?

Uipath has 4 recordings. They are Basic, desktop, web, and Citrix.
 Basic:
It is used for the generation of the full selector for every activity but has no container. Hence the automation is
much slower but is good for the single activities.
 Desktop:
It is great for multiple actions and desktop apps. It is much faster than the basic and uses the container where the
activities will be enclosed and will also have partial selector.
 Web:
It is used for recording in the web pages and for browsing. It also generates the container.
 Citrix:
 It is used for recording of virtualized environments, permits texts, images and the keyboard automation.

Flow switch and flow decision are the same things but it has one difference and that is in the flow switch each
branch of the flow switch is known as flow step and is not just restricted to true or false branch.

Document Understanding

211 What is Document Understanding?

· Document understanding is the term used to describe reading, interpreting, and acting on document data
automatically. Intelligent document processing technologies incorporating machine learning capabilities, allow
the robots‟ artificial intelligence to understand documents as digital assistants. This way, we can say that
document understanding emerges at the intersection of document processing, AI, and RPA.

212. What are the benefits of Intelligent document understanding?

 Accelerate operational efficiency: Spend less time and costs on high-volume document processing and more
on the real business investments.
 Improve customer experience: Accelerate the speed of your responses to customers in order to win their
respect with exceptional customer experience.
 Mitigate risks: Eliminate the risk of human error to save you and your customers from related losses.
 Improve employee experience: Save employees from operational immunity and let them focus on higher-
value tasks and objectives.

213. Document Understanding Framework

 Load Taxonomy: Taxonomy is loaded. Here, it defines and sets the files and data for extraction.
 Digitize: It digitizes the text and its location. This helps to standardize the documents and data for the following
steps.
 Classify: Document Understanding classifies the documents from the specified list.
 Extract: It extracts data from the document with rules, templates, and/ or machine learning (ML) models.
 Validate: If needed an employee might validate or correct the results.
 Export: Document data is exported for further use in various systems according to your business needs.

214. Which type of documents Document Understanding can automate?

 Structured: Repetitive forms and documents with a structured template that can contain handwritten text,
signatures, checkboxes (forms, passports, licenses, time sheets).
 Semi-structured: Documents containing fixed and variable parts like tables (invoices, receipts, purchase
orders, medical bills, bank statements, utility bills).
 Unstructured: Documents with no fixed format (various contracts, agreements, emails, disease descriptions,
drug prescriptions, news, voice scripts).

215. What are the different types of approaches that can be considered/taken while extracting the data?
When extracting document data, you can take three different approaches:
 A rule-based, or template-based, approach takes actions based on specific, user-specified rules.
 Machine Learning (ML) models, on the other hand, learn how to respond to dynamic situations. This means
they are taught how to find and extract data when no static rules or templates can be applied.
 In some cases, you need to combine rules, templates, and ML models to ensure more effective data e xtraction.
This is called a hybrid approach or multi-approach.

216. What are the types of extractors in Document Understanding?

 RegEx Based Extractor – relies on regular expressions to extract the information and works for data that
appears in very similar textual contexts across documents.
 Form Extractor – functions based on the rules and templates and can process structured documents, tables,
checkboxes.
 Intelligent Form Extractor – applies intelligent templates and rules for data extraction, and can process mostly
structured documents including tables, handwriting, signatures, and checkboxes.
 ML Extractors for invoices, receipts, purchase orders, etc. – are powered by ML models. They are perfect
for processing less structured documents with varying layouts, that are semi-structured documents. The name of
the extractor indicates the type of documents it is trained for. For now, we offer pre-trained ML models for
invoices, receipts, purchase orders, and utility bills.
·

217. What is Classifier & Types of Classifier in Document Understanding?

 A classifier identifies the document type that needs to be handled by the process according to the defined
taxonomy.
An extractor identifies the specific information required from a certain document type.
 Types of classifiers:
1. Keyword Based Classifier: Process files that include repeatable titles or words.
2. FlexiCapture Classifier: Applies FlexiCapture definition files to classify information from a document.
3. Intelligent Keyword Classifier: Classifies and splits document packages into individual document types.

218. What is Taxonomy Manager and Load Taxonomy?

 The Taxonomy Manager can be used to create and edit a Taxonomy file specific to your current automation
project. This Taxonomy file contains user-defined document types, sorted by Groups and Categories.
The Taxonomy Manager can be accessed only after installing a UiPath.IntelligentOCR.Activities package .
 Load Taxonomy: Turns the taxonomy.json file created with the help of the Taxonomy Manager into a variable
that can be further used with other activities.

219. What is Digitize Document?

· Digitizes a document, extracting its Document Object Model (DOM) and text and storing them in their
corresponding variable types. You must assign the OCR Engine to this activity. The available OCR engines
are Microsoft OCR, Google OCR, Abbyy OCR, OmniPage OCR, Microsoft Cloud OCR, Google Cloud OCR,
or Abbyy Cloud OCR.

220. What is Classify Document Scope?

· Provides a scope for classifier activities, providing all of the necessary files needed to perform document
classification. Accepts at least one classifier, and brokers between them, ensuring all parameters are
forwarded to the child classification activities.

221. What is Data Extraction Scope?

· Provides a scope for extractor activities, enabling you to configure them according to the document types
defined in your taxonomy. The output of the activity is stored in an ExtractionResult variable, containing all
automatically extracted data, and can be used as input for the Export Extraction Results activity. This activity
also features a Configure Extractors wizard, which lets you specify exactly what fields from the document types
defined in the taxonomy you want to extract.

222. What is Present Validation Scope?

· Opens the Validation Station, which enables users to review and correct document classification and
automatic data extraction results.The Validation Station is a powerful tool that enables users to make real-time
CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) operations on digitized documents. The Validation Station wizard
can be accessed by using the Present Validation Station activity.

223. What is Export Extraction Result?

· Gives you easy access to extraction results by exporting results from an Extraction Result variable to
a Dataset variable which can be further processed. The Extraction Result variable can be obtained from the Data
Extraction Scope or the Present Validation Station activities.
