Scheduled bots and Holidays

I have a few bots that run M-F at 6:00AM.  Normally it runs fine, with no issues.  However, we are closed on holidays (such as MLK Jr. Day).  Is there a way to have the  scheduler work to NOT run on a Holiday?   I will need to remember now to go into RPA Central on the day before the holiday and change the schedule to NOT run on the holidays for certain bots.  I'm just looking for an easier way to  have the holidays skipped without manual intervention

Nintex RPA Central SQL database

Hello, I am looking to upgrading to RPA Central from foxtrot RPA. I am looking at setting it up with the SQL database being stored on a SQL server. My database admin has some questions on the requirements for the data base that I cant find answers for. I am hoping someone on here might know. here are the questions: What are the hardware requirements for the database server? Is there a general size estimate for how large this database may be? What is the criticality of this application or what are its availability requirements?

It doesn't found the target of click if I change the device(laptop) to different one and run same script there. I tried to change the resolution to 125% on both the devices but still script find target on one laptop and not on another. Anyone can suggest any solution?

Issues Interacting with a Windows Application

Looking for some advice on another way around this. I have a BOT that interacts with one of our business applications on Windows, Viewpoint Vista. I have the BOT Clicking on fields, buttons etc. Essentially I have a workflow that a user kicks off, that will then start the BOT on a remote server. The BOT will first open the application, and is then presented with a login screen. The BOT will then enter a username/password and hit a login button. This is where I am having issues. This step in the process will never complete, if I let the BOT run by itself on our Remote Server. The only way i can get it to work, is if I RDP into that server to watch the BOT Run. Then the BOT has no problem filling in the username/password. I have tried using the click actions, as well as just tabbing through the fields on the login screen. Both never work, when I'm not remoted into the Server. Any suggestions to get this to work, so I we dont have to remote in and babysit the BOT? Thanks,Zach

User Voice Maintenance for RPA feedback forum

Hi, Everyone,I wanted to let you know that I'm in the process of going through all of the User Voice ideas for RPA and will be changing the status of them and possibly following up with some of you to get a better understanding of specific requests. Note that even though I'll mark some as Not Planned, it doesn't mean that the idea or part of the idea is completely off the table. It simply means that we're not currently pursuing that type of functionality. Those that we are looking at I'll put into Under Review.For more information about User Voice, see this NWC community post: https://community.nintex.com/t5/How-To/Creating-a-feature-request-for-Nintex-products-on-Nintex-s-User/ta-p/118944 and remember that you can submit ideas for anything in the Nintex portfolio. The main URL is https://nintex.uservoice.com/Thank you,Mike

Unable to add new Security Certificate to RPA Central

Our current Security Certificate had expired for our RPA Central URL. We mistakenly deleted the old certificate first, prior to adding the new certificate to RPA Central.   Now of course, we are unable to actually access RPA Central to add in the new Certificate, wondering what I can do to get the new Certificate added to RPA Central?   Thanks, Zach

Keyboard Send Values Do Not Send in Scheduled Botflows

I'm looking for advice. Many of my scripts rely on setting the keyboard and sending a ctrl+v command to paste data. In particular, a certain webpage I work with will not recognize any input if you use the bypass keyboard function, so that is not a realistic option. The script runs fine if you have the RDP connection opened and the window not minimized on a monitor. Even if the RDP instance is launched, but the window is minimized then keyboard values will not send. Any ideas on what could be the cause or how to circumvent this issue? Has anyone had success sending values without bypassing the keyboard in a scheduled script? Clearly if we are scheduling botflows we will not have the RDP connection launched and visible on a monitor

Target Workbook Not Found - need Excel Filename

I am working with a botflow that I did not create. When it gets to 'search cells' on an excel workbook I get the error Target Workbook Not Found. I think the filename is not correct as I know it has to be exact or Nintex can't "locate" it. How can I see the filename that Nintex is looking for? Thank you.

Can not stop/terminate a botflow

Hi,We have a botflow that we cannot stop. As you can see in the attached image, the status of the botflow is "Running". But if we try to Terminate/Pause, we get "The bot flow instance has stopped. Refresh the status page". However, the status never changes. When connecting to the VM running the botflow, the botflow is not running, neither is the Nintex Bot window opened. We have also restarted the machine and stopped the Nintex Bot service. We have tried with unpublish this botflow and disabled the Bot in RPA Central, without any success. The botflow is still "Running". The problem is that this botflow blocks other scheduled botflows and creates a huge queue.Any suggestions?

How to fetch Nintex form data from NWC into Nintex RPA Bot?

Hi, I want to access the data submitted by the user via Nintex Form into Nintex Bot so that the bot will do the further process based on that data. I did have the Nintex Gateway which allow us to make connection between NWC and Nintex RPA but there are no such properties that will allow to access the NWC data into Nintex RPA. So, please help me to solve this issue. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks

"Cancel" button not found on print dialogue

Hello, I'm doing an "On Your Own" exercise in Nintex University's Nintex Bot Practitioner v17 course.  One of the steps is to target and click the "Cancel" button in a print dialogue (the "fancier" one, I'm not sure if it's got another name but it's not a traditional print dialogue).  I can't get it to work, it keeps returning "The target was not found".I'm using the Microsoft Edge browser. Has anyone else encountered this?  I fiddled around with the target settings, but seeing how many "parents" there are I'm wondering if it'll be more complex than the exercise means for me to try to troubleshoot. Thank you,

Repeating a keyboard Command a specific number of times

Is there a way in RPA to send a Keyboard command a certain number of times, in this case the certain number of times is a variable. For example, I would like to send [^Up] 4 times because the variable is 4.  What I have used in other RPA's is [^Up 4] (exchanging out the 4 for the variable) but this doesn't seem to work in Nintex. [^Up][^Up][^Up][^Up] this works but it isn't variable each time, which is really what I need to action.  Thanks ahead of time for helping.

August 11th 2021: update on the latest release

Hi, Everyone, We have found an issue where Nintex Bot 17.4.0 may not work with web tables in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge properly at this time. We are working to address this issue and release an updated Nintex Bot version soon. The Chrome Extension has been updated to v1.1.0.1 which fixes a targeting issue with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge.  You can continue to use 17.4.0 to run botflows, but if you need to design botflows that target Chrome or Edge, please use 17.3.0, but this also means that you cannot take advantage of the new role-based access control feature. We will keep the release notes and this forum updated as we go. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reply to this thread. Thank you for your patience,Mike
