Issue with invoking a Python Method wich connects to Footprints Webservice via a SOAP API call

[Henry_K]

Currently I am trying to write a Python script that sends a SOAP request via urllib to the webservice API of the webtool Footprints BMC. When I run the script in PyCharm it works and for example tickets in Footprints are processed in the tool as given in the SOAP schema.

When I load the same script into Python Scope in UiPath and run it with “Run Python Script” then I get the following error.

But when I call it with Load Python Script and then Invoke Python Method, I get the following error message.

My versions:
Python 3.9.13 (openssl installed as well)
UiPath 2020.10.6 Enterprise

Thank you very much. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi @Henry_K

Could you please do this simple check first:

Load Python Script: One or more errors occurred

A bit of extra info here. The Python activities are invoked regardless of context, using only the Windows environment variables. If, for some reason, a certain path is not set or if a certain Python package is only available in a certain environment (e.g. in the Miniconda console you used to install a certain version of Python), then the script execution will fail. As a simple verification, you should be able to run the script using nothing but the Windows Command Prompt. <path to python.exe> …

Just to get the first debugging step out of the way.

Some further steps can be found here as well:

Python Activity Troubleshooting

Step-A: (Validate the Configuration parameters) Check the Python exe file path location is properly specified in Python Scope properties Check the installed Python version is 64-bit or 32-bit. In case of 32-bit version select x86 Specify the Python version installed. It is always better to specify the Python version rather selecting Auto.

Thank you very much. I wasnt able to find these posts even after googling a lot…

But with these I was able to fix it.
