Using SignIn Process

This activity allows you to sign-in to the application for which a Sign In Process is already deployed.

In some applications, sign out after a certain time interval may occur due to reasons like security, leaving the application idle for a longer duration, you can sign-in back to the application instance anywhere in the automation process workflow using this activity.

 

NOTE:  

  • This activity must be used inside the application for which the Sign-In Process is created.
  • The Sign-In Process for the intended application must be available and deployed or the application does not get signed-in by this activity.

Property Name

Usage

Control Execution

Ignore Error

When this option is set to Yes, the application ignores any error while executing the activity.

If set to NA, it bypasses the exception (if any) to let the automation flow continue; however, it marks the automation status as failure, in case of an exception.

By default, this option is set to No.

Delay

Wait After

Specify the time delay that must occur after the activity is executed. The value must be in milliseconds.

Wait Before

Specify the time delay that must occur before the activity is executed. The value must be in milliseconds.

Misc

Breakpoint

Select this option to mark this activity as the pause point while debugging the process. At this point, the process freezes during execution allowing you to examine if the process is functioning as expected.

In large or complex processes, breakpoints help in identifying the error, if any.

Commented

Select this option to mark this activity as inactive in the entire process. When an activity is commented, it is ignored during the process execution.

DisplayName

The display name of the activity in the flowchart designer. By default, the name is set as SignInProcessActivity. You can change the name as required.
