When I first tested “Custom process” in UiPath Process Mining several months ago, the following configuration files were present in “Data transformations” and the “seeds” directory:
The “Activity_configuration_raw.csv” file allowed me to change the order of activities when they had the same timestamp (because by default UiPath displays activities with the same timestamp in alphabetical order, which is a problem for my use case), example:
Following an update to UiPath Process Mining, when I create a new “Custom process,” the “seeds” directory is no longer present in the “Data transformations” section:
Even if I manually create the “seeds” directory and the “Activity_configuration_raw.csv” file, I can no longer change the order of activities that have the same timestamp (it seems that this file is not taken into account).
Do you know how to change the order of activities that have the same timestamp so that they are displayed in a “logical” order in the process graph?
I created the file “Activity_configuration_raw.csv” and modified it, but it seems that this file was not taken into account.
After several attempts, I managed to find a solution :
I had to create and modify the file “Activity_configuration_raw.csv” manually.
I also had to create a file called “Activity_configuration.sql” with specific content.
I also had to modify the existing file “Event_log.sql” with specific content.
After doing this, the order of my activities specified in “Activity_configuration_raw.csv” was taken into account.
I don’t know if modifying these files follow the best practices, or if there is a better way to do this in UiPath, but it allowed me to correct my data issues.
For information, I achieved this result by comparing the structure and content of the files between a new app and an old app that I had created several months ago and that was functional.
