Type

Activity Creator

Select Browse for Types to open the Type Presenter and access more complex types.

Note: Any references added to the Activities project (i.e. MyCompany.MyProduct.Activities) will be available in this Type Presenter. The Auxiliary project (i.e. MyCompany.MyProduct) is included by default in this list of references, so any custom classes added there are automatically usable in your activities.

Generated Code

A property's type is declared in an `Argument` for more versatility in UiPath Studio. If any non-standard types are selected, a `using` statement with that type's namespace is automatically added to the top of the activity file.

using System;

[LocalizedDisplayName(nameof(Resources.Addition_FirstNumber_DisplayName))]
[LocalizedDescription(nameof(Resources.Addition_FirstNumber_Description))]
[LocalizedCategory(nameof(Resources.Input_Category))]
public InArgument<int> FirstNumber { get; set; }
[LocalizedDisplayName(nameof(Resources.Addition_SecondNumber_DisplayName))]
