This session presentation is aimed at UiPath Developers and Solution Architects who regularly create JSON objects, who are interested in a coding standard that is efficient, repeatable and easy for others to follow. The chapter discussion is relevant to anyone interested in creating a cluster of RPA expertise in the Central Scotland area.
Agenda - Part 1:
- A little context: explaining UI and REST API interaction and associated challenges
- A brief tour of JSON: a whistle-stop tour of the JSON syntax, just so we're all on the same page
- Building JSON using UiPath Activities: a couple of example JSON payloads, and discuss the implications of using traditional UiPath activities to build these objects
- Problems with the activity approach
- Leveraging .NET integration: revisiting the examples using code, with a code walkthrough explaining every line
- A word of warning
- Concluding remarks and going further: basically a recap, then ask the question "what if we aren't sending JSON, but receiving JSON?" - cue LINQ teaser
Agenda - Part 2:
Discussion on future of the Chapter will be open discussion on what people would like to see/hear about:
- Developer how-to’s?
- UiPath product portfolio
- New and emerging technologies (eg Re:Infer)
- Roles (e.g. Solution Architect, BA etc)
- Thought leadership (think before you automate, etc)
- Preferred day/time for events
- Locations (Glasgow/Edinburgh/other..?)
