Launch and SignIn Application
It allows you to launch an application wherever required in the automation process workflow. Once an application is closed, you can use this activity to launch the application. Additionally, if sign-in is configured for the intended application, this activity automatically sign ins to it.
Place this activity at the point where you want to launch the application before starting with the automation in that application.

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 Launch and SigIn Application. You can change the name as required. |
