Autopilot Fixes inconsistent and erractic

Hello,

I’m seeing two different behaviors when the Autofix feature is applied to correct expressions.

Details below.

Thanks!

Behavior #1: Autofix does not fix errors

In this case I’m trying to fix an expression in the “To Email” property of the Send Mail activity . The split function call needs to be removed in this case.

When Autofix is applied, it fails to fix the issue, and disables itself.

Behavior #2: Sometimes expressions are fixed but not saved

Autofix fixes the problem and the corrected expression can be seen in the expressions editor.

But when the Save button is clicked, the corrected expression is not applied. The erroneous value continues to appear in the activity.

Unfortunately, this behavior is unpredictable, but it has happened at least 2 to 3x times.

Hello Andy,
thanks for reporting these issues!
I was able to reproduce the first issue, a ticket has been created, and it will be fixed in a future release.
As for the second issue, the one in which the fix expression output is not actually saved, I was not able to reproduce the behavior (tried with send email, assign, add data row)
Could you please tell me, if you noticed this behavior with any specific activity? And could you share your type of project? Windows/Crossplatform, VB/C#?
Thank you!

Hi @Ionut_Babencu

This is great! Thanks for moving this report along.

As for this issue below:

I noticed something you may want to try on your end:

  1. Apply the fix via the “Apply Fix” feature as usual
  2. We can see the fixed expression
  3. But the formatting of the fixed expression is removed
  4. Click next to the fixed expression
  5. You should see the intellisense kick in and the format of the expression changes to intellisense font for a brief moment and switch back to normal font.
  6. Now when i click Save, i can see the fixed expression being applied to the activity

Thanks again and I hope this helps.
Andy
