Decreasing Workflow File Size

[william.coulson (Will Coulson)]

Hello,

I am currently working on quite a large .xaml file (11,385kb) and it is taking a very long time to save.

What is the best method of shrinking the file size? I was thinking of invoking workflows, but there is a lot of data that needs to be passed through the sequences. Are there any other methods to shrink the file size?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @william.coulson,

Yes, you can zip the .xaml file by using winzip , but that’s only if you want to send the file via email, for instance.

Concerning the code, I believe that @loginerror is doing a great job by sharing these best practices here:

UiPath Best Practices wiki

We have recently seen two threads on the topic of best practices : I figured, why not compile it all in one place. The result is this wiki topic, which anyone can edit (with high enough trust level). Feel free to collaborate on it by compiling the best practices. This topic is for you Tools to check whether best practices are being followed: Petze: https://go.uipath.com/component/petze-the-rpa-quality-code-reviewer SonarQube plugin: GitHub - KeithEmanuel/sonar-uipath-plugi…

Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Marius
