To create better, more complex apps, UiPath Apps can connect and interact with queues from UiPath Orchestrator.

Referencing a queue from Orchestrator

Once a queue has been created in Orchestrator, you can reference that queue from an app.
For more information on queues, check the Queues section from the Orchestrator guide.

Note: Only queues containing a Specific Data JSON Schema file in Orchestrator are supported by Apps. To better understand how the Specific Data JSON Schema should look like, see the example below:

{
    "definitions": {},
    "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
    "$id": "http://example.com/root.json",
    "type": "object",
    "title": "The Root Schema",
    "required": [
        "name"
    ],
    "properties": {
        "name": {
            "type": "string"
        },
        "isPermanent": {
            "type": "boolean"
        },
        "age": {
            "type": "number"
        },
        "department": {
            "type": "string",
            "enum": ["Sales", "Marketing", "HR"]
        }
        }
    }

以下の例では、既存のエンティティをアプリ内で参照する方法について説明します。

1. 既存のアプリを App Studio で開き、アプリのタイトルの横にある アイコンをクリックします。
2. Click on Queue to open the queue reference dialog.

3. A list of Orchestrator instances for the current Automation Cloud account is shown. Choose the one that hosts the queues you need and click Next. You can also connect to a standalone on-prem tenant, chosse Use other orchestrator tenant. After choosing your tenant, click Next.

4. A list of queues, organized by folders, is shown for the currently selected tenant. Highlighting a queue displays its contents.
5. Check the checkbox next to the queue you want to use in your app and click Add.

📘

注:

Only queues containing a Specific Data JSON Schema file in Orchestrator are supported by Apps.

The queue has now been added to your app.

📘

注:

Queue permissions are managed in Orchestrator. Make sure you have the right permissions for the queue you want to reference from Orchestrator.

Updating a referenced queue

If there are any changes made to a queue schema, follow the steps bellow to update it in Apps.

1. Once a queue is referenced, select it from the Queues menu in Apps.

2. Select the queue from the list.
3. Click on the Refresh icon.

Binding a queue

In the example below we will bound a queue to a textbox control.

開始する前に

Before binding a queue to a control in App Studio, make sure that the queue is referenced in your app.

📘

注:

If you want to send a date-time object, datatables, objects, or arrays to a queue, make sure that you bind it to a string type field. You can also bind a complex object to a queue input using the string type field.

手順

1. In an existing app, add a new textbox control.
2. Select the textbox and go to the Value binding property.
3. Add the queue in the Value Binding property.
