AA: Intelligent Document Processing with IQ Bots
IQ is overrated. You don’t need a sky high IQ to become successful, or to lead a deeply fulfilling life, but if you want to process documents using RPA then forget whatever you have just read so far. Why Can’t “Normal” Bots Process Documents? Nobody said Task Bots can’t process documents. It just isn’t intelligent…
So You Want To Become a Certified RPA Professional?
I have only attempted Automation Anywhere certifications, so the article has been tailored accordingly. If you want to avoid the fluff then click here.

What if My Client Asks…
Clients are notorious for biting off more than they can chew, and it’s done on purpose since they aren’t the ones doing the chewing. It’s the developer/consultant’s job to chew and process client requirements into an application or resolution. If you fail to offer the resolution they are looking for, they will continue to chew…
AA: Extracting Tables That Aren’t Tables(Part-II)
In our last post, we were able to successfully extract data from each column.

AA: Scraping Data Off The Bot Store (Part-II)
In last week’s post, we developed the navigation…well most of it. Where Did We Go Wrong This Time? Nowhere. We are on the right track and only have to include one more condition into the Loop: While Action, to ensure it works as expected. I didn’t include this in the previous post as it breached the…
AA: Minimize The Task Window With This
When we run automations with Automation 360, a task window pops up, indicating the progress of our automation. It is useful as it not only tells us at which stage the bot is currently at, but also provides us with the option of pausing or stopping the automation, in case something goes wrong. Of course,…
