Very useful activity - Great job, Bogdan! The activity works as expected and it is very helpful. For future versions, I would suggest to also implement recursive searching.


The solution contains 3 activities Get Google Token, Get Microsoft Token, Get Okta Token and offers an easy way to manage soft token codes for major Two-Factor Authentication providers: Google, Microsoft, Okta.

NOTE: Installation Guidelines for Custom Activities can be found here

Custom activities that can generate the token for a two-factor authentication system, based on the Secret Key generated when you enroll a device in the program.

Hi Mihai, How to get secret key or where to get that secret key. And one more question, in my organization i have MFA multi factor authentication process for sharepoint. How to automate that as the token is coming to mobile or desktop.

Can you please provide the differences between the three activities? (Google, Microsoft, Okta). Based on the description "as the same algorithm is used to generate the token for all." and in testing that all three return the same Token, what is the purpose for doing so?

Hi, can you please explain what values should be entered for "Secret Key" and "Token"?I am trying to use UiPath to automate a login process which uses Google Authenticator extension on Chrome.

Hi Mihai Pricochi. I got it working man. I had to click the button that says I do not want a notification on the set up page to get a different code and now it works. Thanks man and great activity.

Any chance to support also Onelogin ?

When running the bot using the Microsoft Token activity I keep getting an error. "Get Microsoft Token: Illegal character: 8"Any idea what I might be doing wrong? I entered the Secret Key value that was shown before activating on my device that would be doing the approval. So I figured once it was activated it would work without any issue. Confused as to what is going on. Thanks.

Hi Mihai,Not sure if I can respond directly to your answer you provided me below, but no it never works. But I activated the Secret Key on a different device (via phone), not the activity in this case. Maybe that is my issue? If so, I am not 100% sure how I would activate the Secret Key through UiPath then.I really would like to use this activity, but can't get it to work. The Secret Key is all numeric and I am not using spaces.

Hello Mihai, Works the authentication component with Symantec vip access?: <a href="https://vip.symantec.com/" target="_blank">https://vip.symantec.com/</a>

Hi Mihai, is it work for 2 step authentiation for gmail?

I am still facing the issues for two-factor authentication.

I am using microsoft authenticator for two factor authentication. I am approving through app. I can change this method to SMS but not email... These sms or app are the two default options. 

For the secret key you are asking to generate throgh the microsoft sign in process.. we dont get can't see bar code.. can't use mobile all time. it cannot generate secret key and there is no documentation regarding the two factor authentication in uipath forum or anywhere.. How can we explore or complete the solution? Please help us out.

Please let me know what values we need to give in SecretKey field in GetOkta Token activity.

While enabling MFA for Microsoft Authenticator, In the configure mobile app page, it shows CODE and URL under barcode. Here CODE is the secret key? and its full of numeric values.

As shown in this page link ->  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/user-help/user-help-auth-app-add-account-manual#:~:text=Open%20the%20Microsoft%20Authenticator%20app,1%2C%20and%20then%20select%20Finish.

Attestation that this works with Microsoft! - Pretty great, handy, dandy, custom activity.


Works perfectly! - I used this for an application that uses Google Authenticate, and it logs in perfectly every time. Great job!


It functions to generate a TOTP no problem! I used it to make logging into Saleforce a little more secure and easier to access compared to OTP via email. 

My only concern initially given that all three activities use the same algorithm is there is no reason to have three different activities.

Would love to see this added to the Open Source activities.

90 Activities and 5 wizards that allow you to do a very fast implementation for ServiceNow. 18K+ downloads.

The ServiceNow Activity package contains around 60 activities that allow you to perform various operations such as adding, deleting, updating, or getting (ADD, DELETE, UPDATE or GET) on different objects from ServiceNow like INCIDENT, USER, TASK, PROBLEM, CATALOG, KNOWLEDGE ARTICLE, GROUPS, ASSET, CHANGE. For the other objects in ServiceNow and for the custom ones, the package contains Add, Update and Delete activities that can be used without any restriction by name or structure.

Also, we provide activities that allow the user to upload and download files from the ServiceNow Platform.

the background automation is very fast, and the automation is safe because it’s totally independent of your web browsers and the ServiceNow layout.

This Connector will be very useful!In the Get Data Wizard, I'm able to query the incident table, but in the Information tab the Incident table does not appear in the drop down (as per your screenshots/videos). I tried typing Incident in the table drop down but it fails with message:"Requested URI does not represent any resource :/now/table/sn_grc_indicator/"Any suggestions?Thanks!

Hi Cristian,First of all thanks for providing such a great component. It will be really useful in my case.&nbsp;I've few queries in getting the&nbsp;data from service now. Scenario is to filter the incidents where it is assigned from some team i.e.- assignment_group =xxx. Input must be a string. but I cannot pass it as string since type_reference is Ref[sys_user_group]. Same goes for assigned_to as well as company.Could you please let me know how to pass those values. Thanks.

Hi Cristian,Thanks for sharing the video. I've tried to replicate the steps shown in the video to get the assignment_group value. Still i'm not getting any value. If name is a single word, then i'm getting the data (say name= 'xxx') but if it has more than one word(say name='xxx yyy'), i'm not getting any data. I tried with LIKE command&nbsp;also it didn't work. Could you please help me on this. Thanks.

HiCould you please help me in creating child incidents.

Hello Christian,great tool, as I wrote in review. Just one heads-up. For our case, get task list activity is outputting only not yet closed tasks and Get Data Native is not outputting datatable. For Get Task List there might be a kind of boolean variable to output also closed tasks. But it might be rather problem somewhere between chair and keyboard. :-) Anyway, thanks! :)

Is there any instructions on how to connect this to SNOW, what is needed for the Rest API access?

Hello,I noticed when I tried to save the username and password in a string variable I am not able to connect to my servicenow instance and when I hardcode it into the field it does. Can we not store username and password values in variables?

Hi Cristian,thanks for the Videos how to connect to ServiceNow via UIPathI did the same as you described in the demo, I am trying to add a custom Object activity to ServiceNow to create a new record on a ServiceNow custom Table.it is working with using Add Custom Object and adding Parameters as String but it is not working with adding the variables that I have to this Parameter.How can I pass Dynamic Variables instead of Static String Text to this "Add Custom Object" Activity?Tx iAElias

I am trying to use variables with the UIPath Studio and not via the wizard command but I added the variable under the wizard as I do not know where elsewhere.When I run this with variable I get this{"error":{"detail":"Cannot decode: java.io.StringReader@7e03bb","message":"Exception while reading request"},"status":"failure"}Please tell me where to put my variables on this activity to create a record in ServiceNow?

Unfortunately I dont see any link refering to a Video you are sharing?or you mean the Video on that article? as I dont see where you use variables for the Group ID and User ID.Can you please share the link of that Video you mean to? thank youElias

How can I update a variable on a requested item? I can use the 'Update Custom Object' with the generic fields, but I cant get the variables because they live in a separate table. Any ideas on how I can accomplish?

Can we write Joins in the Get Data Wizard activity?

Hi Cristian, Hope you are doing well. First of all I must say this is fantastic tool to get or post information in SNOW. :)I would like to know how can we pass multiple filter conditions for a tabular value. For example, I wish to get data from 2 assignment groups. I used below code: WHERE&nbsp;assignment_group='de76216d0f7aa3c05c70355be1050e56'If I want to add anothor group for this condition, do I need to use 'AND' ? because it is not working for me. :(

Anybody knows how to create a request (RITM) in sc_req_item table or which of the Connector's activities is designed to do that?

Is this package available in UiPath Studio packages, if yes how do I locate it as i didn't find on search in packages, and also would like to know if we can download the attachments of incidents/problems instances and also want to know if we can read last three comments/work notes entered in incident/problem instances.

Finally, do we need to do OAuth setup to work with Service Now here, can't we work without setting up OAuth?

I'm using UiPath Studio 19.10.4 version and unable to find your package on search in manage packages. Please advise how can i use your package.

I was thinking if we can replicate a report by using a SQL Wizard and have all the JOINS put in place.  I tried but seems JOINS don't work.  Can you please elaborate.

I am trying to access the report that we created, so is there any better way of accesing the report, We have schedule the report, however I don't want another point of BOT failure (outlook), so can I select the report directly or by SQL statement.

I am having a hard time to create a Generic Service request, can you please help how should I create a request basically an RITM Request.

I am using multiple things, I tried to use "ServiceAPI" activities but didn't got any success, I even tried Custom Objects, I am getting an error as Invalid Command.

Are there any mandatory Paramenters that I am missing, can you share an example so that I can have a look and try to replicate it.

In service now, I am able to add servicenow scope and test the connection it is working fine.But when I tried to 'add incident' by having parameters such as 'number,state.priority,short_description' using the 'parameters wizard'. To check the command I clicked the 'Run Command' option. It showed the below error.

{"number":"INC0001","state":"7","priority":"1","short_description":"UAT Environment is not working"}

I'm trying to do a query with to get the sys_id from sys_user using as a parameter the 'first_name', 'last_name', or the 'name' itself.  But, every time a parameter has a space, the query returns nothing. I tried with LIKE using %% but the result is the same.

Thanks for producing this connector. It's really user friendly. I discovered that the Get Data Wizard SQL doesn't like spaces, but if you insert a %20 for the space, it will work. (i.e. 'West Park' returns no data, but 'West%20Park' returns the right data). Not sure if that's a 'bug' or a 'feature' hope it helps as you continue to work on this and let me know if you intend to change it? Thanks again. 

Hello, we are using Get Variables activity from ServiceNow connector. We need to get info depending on one number. We have a datable with multiples numbers. We loop this DataTable with numbers and in every pass we use Get Variables passing number by input parameter. The first loop run well and we can get de Datatable expected, but the second loop through this error:

@"System.ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added.

   at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentException(ExceptionResource resource)

   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.Add(TKey key, TValue value)

at UiPathTeam.ServiceNow.CmdRestAPI.<ExecuteAsync>d__63.MoveNext()"

Does the connector support ServiceNow with ADFS configuration? since i cannot find any hints about this; during the test it only throw the "Invalid connection" error -- Please check if your instance isn't in hibernation mode.  To be sure of this open a Browser with your ServiceNow and search for an Incident then try the connection again. The ENDPOINT should look like this: https://XXXXXXX.service-now.com

Great tool for SNOW without clicks activities - Component contains many activities to obtain data from ServiceNow (SNOW) via REST API. We have used it so far with Password and UserName and tried to pull data from several tables. Big advantage is to see result without necessity to run script and opportunity to provide sys_id or number in Information tab and to see what fields you can use in SQL alike Command tab.
For me, although, Get Task List activity is giving only tasks with active=true. We used it in automation of activities done for closed tasks (downloading attachments and attaching them in SAP documents). Not sure, if this is possible, but in the future versions in Properties might be  We have used Get Data Native activity, but still, outcome is not in data table, only in ResponseJSON.
When SNOW is about to be automate, I strongly recommend this connector. We previously used SNOW User Interface (internet explorer), bad idea to automate SNOW via this option.


So far the best and yet very powerful connector for servicenow I have used. It has all the feature one would use via UI. 

One of the main functionalities that the latest update contains is the WebLogin Authentication Mode (found under the SharePoint Instance Type property) which can  potentially authenticate the robot even if the SharePoint instance is using 3rd party identity providers or if only multi factor authentication is possible. This happens by prompting the user to insert their credentials the first time the workflow is executed, afterwards which the robot stays authenticated. Given that this mode requires human input, it is recommended that this authentication mode is used only for attended automation

The activity should be used only in case you are signed in to a WebLogin SharePoint Instance!

Gets the current user in case you are signed into a WebLogin SharePoint Instance.

· Have access to an instance of SharePoint and an account with all the necessary permissions. You will not be able to use this package using your credentials to do any operations that you couldn't do on your SharePoint environment in the browser.

I noticed that I'm not able to give an entire path to be created on SharePoint using Create folder activity, for example "Path1/Path2/Path3", I need to create a loop and create one folder by time: "Path1", "Path1/Path2", "Path1/Path2/Path3". The documentation says that "It creates nested folders as well", but it throws an exception when one of the nested paths of the RelativeUrl does not exists.

When I try to upload a file with Upload file activity, the RelativeUrl parameter causes problems with some characters, for example a dot, it throws an exception with this message: "Upload file: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.". In this case I'm obligated to make the replacements, for example, "." for "%2E". I think the activity should handle it, shouldn't it?Suggestion: Upload file activity could return the URL of the uploaded file for SharePoint online.

Where is the link to download this package? Please!

Question:Hi Radu, Thank you for quick response, I am using SSO for on premises apps like SharePoint, Outlook, etc. So the SSO should be standard one. could you suggest difference between standard and custom SSO. And also if this SSO does belong to standard category, do let me know about possible solution for failed authentication.

The error message is "Invalid data has been used to update the list item. The field you are trying to update may be read only". Could you please kindly advise how I can handle this problem, thanks in advance.

Can you provide an example on how you can read from a list from a site and then add this item to another list in another site? Thank you!

HI Radu, Could you please let me know where this activity is hosted? If I use this custom activities where does my ID and password for Sharepoint go? Will my ID/Pwd will be available local to my UI path or will it pass through the API called by the activity wherever it is hosted? Will this activity work on latest UI path 2019 version?I wanted to be sure and safe that if I use my credentials for Sharepoint it will not go to any third party application and make it vulnerable.Thanks,Milind

Hello Radu,I have downloaded the “SharePoint Custom Activities Package” from the “go.uipath.com” portal. I have added that to the UiPath studio. After that I tried to use the activity “Sharepoint application scope”, but it is asking for the UserName and Password as the mandatory field. What value should be enter in these two fields? Please confirm.NOTE - SharePoint which we are using is Single Sign On(SSO), we are not entering any UserName and Password while interacting with the SharePoint.

I am trying to update list items using UpdateListItem activity. List contains around 30K items. Activity is returning the error "The attempted operation is prohibited because it exceeds the list view threshold enforced by the administrator."I know LVT is set to 5000. Please advice any alternative approach without changing LVT.

HI Radu, Related to your question below, this is general issue and not specific to Add list item. I am able to upload data manually through excel but not with this SharePoint activity. I guess our organization is using Azure Active Directory for authentication since we are using cloud based SharePoint online. EX"<a href="https://sp-cloud.kp.org/sites/AutomationCatalog" target="_blank">https://sp-cloud.abc.org/sites/D</a>ata". Does this activity will not work? Or do we have any other workaround?

Hello @RaduBucur,This package is really useful for me. Thank you!I have one problem discovered lately while using this activity in Sharepoint Online. I often received "The remote server returned an error: (503) Server Unavailable.&nbsp;" and strange thing here is that sometimes activity works and sometimes not (40-60%). (tested on different SP sites) I wrote about this to Microsoft Support and they replied that this is because of throttling

I was looking to get version history of a file/folder in sharepoint.

When is the next release for this activity package? I keep getting an error when using the "Create Folder" activity, that I think may be due to an update in the Sharepoint API that isn't in the current iteration of this package. Source: Create folderMessage: The sign-in name or password does not match one in the Microsoft account system.Exception Type: Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.IdcrlException

Hi Radu,The password is stored as String instead of SecureString, this sholud be updated in next release.Please let me know when next release is coming ? and also this thing is updated ?ThankS :)

Hi Radu,can this be used if we have multi-factor authentication in our company?Daniel

We are getting a 403 error when trying to connect to our Sharepoint Online site. We are able to do the activities when we try it directly, however struggle to do the same via Uipath activity. I am sure others have overcome such challenges, so if someone could direct me to a link that covers this or share how they solved it.

Hi Team , i am facing issue while deleting the file from a folder in sharepoint. Could you please show me an example for deleting file with proper arguments?Also i entered all the possible Library name and item url in the properties but still giving file not found error.

I just started exploring this package. When reading list items in a Sharepoint Application Scope I get the following error:

Read list items: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required.

How can I solve this/work around this? It seems that it is not using the default settings from Internet Options.

Is there a method to retrieve all Lists in a site?  I have had good success retrieving items in a particular list, however I need to get a list of all lists then iterate through each of them to get the items.

I am exploring sharepoint activities and getting below error while trying to access the list items from sharepoint.

Read list items: The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.

Could you please help me why this error and how can i resolve the same.

I am using the same credentials which I am using for Sharepoint login from web.

Hi. Is there a way to read the meta-data (metainfo) from a file i Sharepoint.?

I need to know some information about the file before deciding whether I can overwrite it or not, or whether I need to other tasks.?

Is it possible to make the version 1.4 available on marketplace?

Lately I am facing problem when trying to use send mail using UiPath.SendExchangeMail activity - rightr after your Sharepoint activity it throws "The Autodiscover service couldn't be located". When I send mail before reaching Sharepoint with your activity then all goes fine. Tested multiple times using different Sharepoint sites and mailboxes and mailbox accounts and results were always the same. Sending mail activities were always outside "Sharepoint application scope" activity. Does your activity somehow "block" Exchange service?

When i use the for each activity, i get the following error: Multiple Assign: Can not assign 'item("Op_x0020_te_x0020_vragen_x0020_m0").ToString' to 'Materie2'.

That is because by that item, the field is empty. That can happen sometimes.

Our Azure Sharepoint Online is using Modern authentication with service principal.

How do we authenticate using our excellent package? 

Hi Radu, I am facing this issue "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.". My SharePoint instance is OnPremises and using Microsoft SSO. Can you please help on how to resolve this

my customer just installed ADFS Services and occur your activities not working as usual.

Currently, we have several production processes that are using the Sharepoint Custom Activities Package 1.3.0. Due to some security changes, those aren't working anymore, as the basic authentication is blocked. I have installed the new version 1.4.1 and tried WebLogin, which does work on my local machine, but it seems that when triggered on our VMs, it isn't working anymore as expected. The problem is that the SSO window appears during the project run, but this isn't happening on my local machine (it actually does open for a split second and get's autocompleted). Do you have any idea what might be missing? Is it a library that I have installed on my local machine, but isn't on the Virtual Machine?

Also, any reason why version 1.4.1 isn't officially available through the go platform? I would find it helpful and would like to be able to read also the new documentation with the newly made changes.

would you mind to add an addditional authentification methode like OAuth2? Then sombody could access the client context with a Client ID and Client Secret instead of an User.

We've been trying to use this connector with SharePoint Online but keep getting a "cannot invoke http dav request. there is a pending query" error when we try to upload a file (Downloading a file from the same SharePoint works fine).

Hi! I've asked a question here: https://forum.uipath.com/t/cannot-create-a-sharepoint-folder/140739/3 . Basically I cannot get "Create Folder"-activity to work. I can upload files and Get children names for example in the folder, but when trying to create a new sub-folder I always get

"Create folder: List 'some/path' does not exist at site with URL 'https://abc.sharepoint.com/path/to/site'". I have tried any combinaion of Library path/url I can think of but always the same error. Any hints?

uipath RemoteException wrapping Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientRequestException: Cannot invoke HTTP DAV request. There is a pending query.

I'm getting this error with latest version of package for uploading the file.

but if i use lower version i don't get any error.

however updated version has facility of secure string and lower version doesn't have
