Uninstall of RPA Server

 Knowledge shared by Oren Uninstalling of SEQ does not remove the SEQ service, it only removes the files. This is how SEQ installation and uninstallation works.To remove the SEQ service you need to either run the SEQ admin tool before the SEQ uninstall, or run the windows "sc delete" command after the uninstall. To remove all components that were installed using RPA Server, add the following parameter to the CLI of the RPA Server setup EXE:"REMOVE_ALL=TRUE"(I admit I am not sure this parameter was tested enough yet)

How to read and extract contents from digital PDF documents?

1. Use the Analyze digital PDF file advanced command. This command can only be used on a digital PDF document (document that’s converted from a soft copy document (e.g. Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc) and not applicable to scanned document2. An Error variable can be defined to identify the specific error if an issue occurs during the execution3. Use the Page: Get Text advanced command within the Analyze digital PDF file advanced command to extract the contents by page4. As the Analyze digital PDF file advanced command is a loop command which gets the contents by page, there is a need to append all the contents obtained into a variable which provides you with the full contents of the extraction in 1 variable. This can be achieved through the use of concatenation of values into a single variable after each page extraction5. At the end of the execution, you should have a variable (e.g. $pdfContent$) that contains the entire extracted content (excluding images) from the PDF document. You wil

How to send separate email messages to contacts from an Excel sheet?

First of all, you need to split the contacts if you want each of them to receive a separate email. To do that, use the split command. Afterward, you need to create a loop that checks the value in the variable that stores the email addresses and sends the wizard to the correct action accordingly (Send an email if the variable contains something/Doesn’t send if not).  To make it happen, do one of the following: Use a loop command that sends the email to each employee as long as the variable that stores the email address is Not empty.  Create a loop and let it run between two steps using an If Else command. Check out Kryon Academy, especially the Email Commands module from the Using Advanced Commands course. The demos there describe the same action suggested above: http://academy.kryonsystems.com.

Record the Application: Add Advanced Commands at the end of each step

When you add advanced commands to a recorded step, you should always add them to Step End. By doing so, the application has time to load and you can be sure that the robot won't waste time on looking for the application it has to run the commands on. The default of Step End is to 'Go to Next Step'. When you have a core action, you'll always see it between Step Start to Step End.
