Configure evaluations for agents - Course reflection

Learning is better when it’s shared—and you’ve just built your first agent with escalations!

With this occasion, we invite you to share your “A-ha!” moments with us and fellow learners. If it’s easier for you to take some time and reflect on this lesson with some guidance, don’t hesitate to refer to one or more of the following questions:

  • What did I learn and did not expect?
  • What was difficult for me and how did I overcome it?
  • What is the most useful thing that I learned in this lesson?

Feel free to share with us and your peers whatever comes to your mind!

:tada: A-ha Moment :tada:

Building my first agent with escalations was a game-changer! I didn’t expect how intuitive and powerful the Agent Builder would be—especially the way it handles tokens and temperature to shape responses. It felt like giving my automation a personality!

:light_bulb: What surprised me most was how easily I could structure outputs and even convert them into DataTables for downstream workflows. I initially thought formatting agent responses would be tricky, but the lesson broke it down so clearly that I found myself experimenting with different output formats confidently.

:brain: The most challenging part was understanding how escalation logic works in real-time scenarios. I overcame it by revisiting the examples and testing edge cases—seeing how the agent reacts when it hits a confidence threshold or when fallback logic kicks in. That hands-on approach really helped solidify the concept.

:wrench: Most useful takeaway? The emphasis on data integrity and secure deployment strategies. It’s not just about building smart agents—it’s about building responsible ones. That mindset shift is something I’ll carry into every automation project I tackle.

Thanks to UiPath Academy for making learning so engaging and practical. Can’t wait to explore more advanced use cases and share them with the community!
