by Xebia

Solution

<100

Summary

When we are working on huge data sources in .xlsx format, then Select Queries becomes inefficient on DataTables

Overview

Xebia proposed Robotic Process Automation (RPA) as a solution to automate the process and suggested UiPath RPA tool.

Xebia RPA Team extended/created the existing functionality of UiPath by creating this reusable workflow.

This activity requires the following user inputs:

Pre-conditions:

i. OLEDB driver should be installed on the machine.

ii. UiPath Database package should be installed in UiPath Studio.

Steps:

1. System reads the Config File and reads all the mandatory parameters like Sheet Name, Header_Present, File Path and Range and Query.

2. The BOT will read the data source file using OLEDB connector.

3. With the help of config File BOT we can determine whether the Header will be there or not.

4. A connection string will be established and based on that database the connection is configured.

5. In “Execute Query” the user can write query and the result will be saved in a DataTable.

Output – The DataTable generated from the Query using OLEDB Connection.

Features

The workflow can be referred and copied as per requirement 1. Converting the Excel to Database, allowing developers to use SQL queries 2. Helping developers to connect to Database 3. Allow the user understand how the Workflow is to be implemented for connecting the DB from UiPath
