Using action apps
Introduction
This app shows how to create an Action Center form for onboarding employees.
Demo app - try it yourself
Demo app - instructions to use
- Access the GitHub repository and download the following files:
- App_BuildADeskNew.uiapp - the demo app that uses the action definition. Import it in UiPath Apps.
- SW_BuildADeskNew.uip - the Studio Web onboarding workflow. This creates the form in Action Center.
- In UiPath Apps, create a new app. Select Add any from the dropdown arrow next to Add control, and select Action. The Action Properties window opens.
- Create your action definition schema using the controls.
- Publish the app to your tenant using the Publish button. The What's next window opens automatically.
- Select Deploy now. A new Orchestrator page opens automatically.
Note:
To check if the app was published, navigate to Action Center - Actions, Admin Settings > Tenant > Action Apps. The BuildADeskNew app should be displayed.
- In UiPath Studio Web > Projects, expand the New project button, click Import project, and select the previously downloaded Studio Web project.
Note:
To access the action app in Orchestrator, you should use the CreateAppTask activity.
- Open the project, then from the Apps dropdown, select the "BuildADeskNew" app. The defined fields of the action app are unfolded.
Note:
If you modify the app in the meantime, click Refresh to retrieve the latest version.
- Test the project. The workflow creates an Action form, then pauses while expecting for you input.
- Switch to Action Center - Actions, Inbox > Unassigned, then click the "BuildITDesk" action. To interact with the action, assign it to yourself.
- From Pending tab in Action Center, click Approve or Reject to complete the action. Once the action transitions to the Completed tab, the workflow in Studio resumes.
