Input and Output Type Properties
You can use Input/Output arguments in UiPath Apps.
A process of type Input/Output is treated as a single property. No separate input and output versions are created for the same property. For this, a third category of properties called Input/Output is used.
When a control is bound to a In/Out property, the same control works as input and as output. This means that while a process is running, the control value goes as input to the process, and once the process is completed, the same control is refreshed with the output value.
Importing Apps
When importing an app from the cloud environment to an on-premises environment, which does not support In/Out properties, the following applies:
- The entire Input/Output section disappears.
- Bindings referring to properties from the Input/Output section are displayed as invalid.
- After replacing the process, the In/Out properties are added to both sections. You can now update the invalid bindings to point to the new properties.
Note:
Importing an app from cloud to Automation Suite is only supported for backwards compatibility, meaning you need to export on cloud before the Automation Suite version is released.
