OUT OF SUPPORTv18
Release date: 28 April 2021
- When using UI Automation v18.4.x with Studio 2021.4, working with the Indicate Element and Repair features caused multiple Selector Editor windows to be opened.
- When using UI Automation v18.4.x with Studio 2021.4, after using Indicate Element or Indicate Anchor, UIExplorer would remain minimized and could not be brought to the foreground.
- In projects created with Studio v2018.4.2 and UI Automation v18.4.2, activities that made use of selectors when working with Internet Explorer might have not worked correctly after upgrading the Robot to v2020.10.4.
- The Click Image activity did not use the values specified in the Timeout and WaitForReady property fields.
- The Attach Browser activity did not switch focus to a tab when the webpage in that tab was a frameset.
Release date: 27 March 2019
- The Extract Structured Data activity did not return any data when used with Java applications v1.3 to v1.6.
- When selecting web page elements in Internet Explorer, the wrong
idxattribute would be generated, causing selectors to become invalid. - The Chrome extension would fail to install after upgrading Google Chrome to version 73.
Release date: 27 February 2019
You asked, we delivered! One of the main improvements brought by the v18.4.4 UI Automation package is the support for UIA selectors in Edge.
- The Extract Structured Data activity does not return any data when used with Java applications v1.3 to v1.6. Please note that this can cause a breaking change and it is recommended to upgrade Java to a newer version.
Release date: 23 January 2019
html tags is now ignored when UI elements are selected in pop-up windows in Internet Explorer.
A few steps need to be performed if you want to use a different UI Automation package, and you can read more about it here.
Release date: 10 January 2019
This new year brings two more languages in the entire UiPath Platform - French and Russian. Since we layed down the foundations of localization in our previous release, we are continuing our efforts in bringing you a more immersive experience and lowering the language barrier bit by bit.
Release date: 7 December 2018
With Citrix environments being so popular, we are further extending automation capabilities with native support for Citrix XenApps. To benefit from this, the UI Automation package must be installed, along with the Citrix Remote Runtime.
Also, dark times ahead, the Dark Theme is now available, in its beta version, on all of the activities and wizards in this package.
- The HtmlWindowName attribute in
htmltags was ignored when UI elements were selected in pop-up windows in Internet Explorer. As a result, selectors were incomplete, causing actions to be performed on the parent window instead. Please note that processes created with the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities v18.3.6962.28967 package ignore the HtmlWindowName attribute in selectors, while v2018.4.2 does not. This might affect process execution and you should manually update them.
Release date: 20 November 2018
- The HtmlWindowName attribute in
htmltags was ignored when UI elements were selected in pop-up windows in Internet Explorer. As a result, selectors were incomplete, causing actions to be performed on the parent window instead. Please note that processes created with the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities v18.3.6962.28967 package ignore the HtmlWindowName attribute in selectors, while v18.3.6897.22543 does not. This might affect process execution and you should manually update them.
Release date: 31 October 2018
The UiPath.Core.Activities package is now split into two distinct packages: UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities and UiPath.System.Activities. The first contains all the activities that mimic human interaction, such as Click or Type Into, while the latter sums up all the blocks required for building an automation, from invoking another workflow to logging a custom message in Orchestrator.
This change was made so that both in present and future versions, you can reference any version of the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities and UiPath.System.Activities packages as dependencies for your projects, completely independent of Studio. This is a step forward for being able to update UiPath Platform components without worrying about how they affect your automations.
Release date: 22 May 2018
We've added a new Continue activity to the Core package. It enables you to streamline conditions inside a For Each loop, without nesting If activities, by skipping iterations.
DataTable variables:
- Lookup Data Table - Modeled after the Excel VLOOKUP function, it searches for relative cell values in a data table.
- Filter Data Table - Enables you to select filtering conditions for a data table with the help of a wonderful wizard.
- Sort Data Table - Sorts a data table in ascending or descending order based on the values in an indicated column.
- Remove Duplicate Rows - Removes the duplicate rows from a specified `DataTable variable.
