Workflow activities

Properties​

Output​

• Processes - A collection of Process objects representing the running processes on the current machine.

Common​

• DisplayName - The display name of the activity.
• ContinueOnError - Specifies if the automation should continue even when the activity throws an error. This field only supports Boolean values (True, False). The default value is False. As a result, if the field is blank and an error is thrown, the execution of the project stops. If the value is set to True, the execution of the project continues regardless of any error.
  Note:

  If this activity is included in Try Catch and the value of the ContinueOnError property is True, no error is caught when the project is executed.

Misc​

• Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.

Platform-specific behavior​

Windows environment​

• Returns all processes running on the system, regardless of which user started them.

Cross-platform environment​

• Returns only the processes that the robot user has permission to see.
• If the robot runs as a regular user, it will only see processes owned by that user.
• If the robot runs with administrative/root privileges, it will see all processes on the system.
