A developer automates a process which has an Excel file as input data. Because the Orchestrator is not connected, the developer needs to adapt the Robotic Enterprise (RE) Framework to use it with tabular data.
Where in the REFramework is it a best practice to read the data from the Excel file and store it in a global DataTable variable?
In the Robotic Enterprise (RE) Framework, the best practice to read the data from an Excel file and store it in a global DataTable variable is in the Initialization state, specifically in the First Run sequence. This ensures that the data is read and stored before any transactions are processed, allowing all subsequent processing to access the required data from the beginning. Placing it here ensures that the data is only read once, avoiding unnecessary repeated reads in case of exceptions or retries.
i think it's B
If we keep the Input Excel in InitAllApplications, when system exception occurs the bot will again read the Input Excel (which is not required). Hence the Answer has to be B.
B is correct
None of the answer, this question (I hope) won't be in actual exam... but if I have to choose, I go with A. In reality what we can do is we can read the file in get transaction data and change queue item type to data row if I am not mistaken
but there is no 'New state' in RE framework either xd literally no idea
hey i have an exam tomorrow, can you please elaborate the answer to this question.
