šŸŽ… Advent of UiPath 2020

What is the ā€œAdvent of UiPath 2020ā€?

The Advent of UiPath is an advent calendar with RPA challenges for everyone :world_map: in the UiPath Forum Community.

Who should play?

  • Anyone that is interested in learning UiPath and/or want to learn more UiPath :partying_face:. The calendar will touch all the important topics we face as RPA developers.

When does the event run until?

  • Until the 25th of December there will be challenges :thinking:, which participants can try to solve to gain stars :star:
  • Users will have 3 days :spiral_calendar: (approximately 72 hours) to answer each post to earn stars :star:

I am still learning UiPath - can I still play?: :raising_hand_woman: :raising_hand_man:

  • Yes - anyone can play! The advent calendar will be for both beginners and advanced users. You can even participate in both levels (earning you stars in both).

The Purpose of the Advent Calendar event :loudspeaker:
This advent calendar should be fun :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: for everyone, demonstrate the creativity and talent in our community which could help you solve problems in the real world :earth_americas: . We donā€™t intend to apply a lot of unnecessary rules. Should there be any doubt, we will ask @loginerror to make a fair ruling.

Scoring: :1st_place_medal: :2nd_place_medal: :3rd_place_medal:
All answers get one star for participating in the challenge whether right or wrong :blush:

There will be two tiers to encourage engagement at all levels in the community :smiley:

Beginner: All right solutions will receive 5 stars. All solutions get one star whether right or wrong.

Advanced: All right solutions will receive 5 stars. All solutions get one star whether right or wrong.

The most creative/best practice solution will receive additional stars :star: :star: :star:

Prizes :gift: :gift: :gift:
You read that correctly, there will be prizes! Each star will earn you one ticket in the Grand Prize draw on/around the 25th of December! The winners will receive UiPath swag :sunglasses: - Watch this space! :eyes:

How do I participate :raised_hand_with_fingers_splayed: :raised_hand_with_fingers_splayed: :raised_hand_with_fingers_splayed:
Simply keep an eye on the forums and just post your answer before the deadline in the threads below. You can participate some of the days or all of the days. The more days you post a solution, the better are your chances in the draw.

Santa is in dire straits, while still being stuck in Bangkok :santa: :thailand:

This morning he called the jury of santas to reward stars to all his GREAT helpers:

Stars: :star2:

Santa, Jingle-Bell and the jury of 5 were very impressed by the help they received. Thanks to each and everyone. You all made a great effort. For some it was their first time dealing with http requests. Others made such great solutions, that we will recommend downloading their solutions and go through it in order to learn a lot.

Remember you can still do Advent Challenge #2, even if you havnā€™t done the first. It will teach you important RPA projects and you will receive stars (tickets) for the final draw at the 25th.

Good luck :four_leaf_clover:
