I found an error while reading my text file in the community version. After searching the forum, I couldn’t find a solution, so I decided to inspect my workflow using a code editor. I found the following:
On line 115 of my workflow, it adds a data [U+202A] which refers to a specific Unicode character known as “LEFT-TO-RIGHT EMBEDDING.” This character is used to temporarily change the text direction in a bidirectional context, such as when Hebrew or Arabic text is found within an English document. I’m not sure where this came from; whether it’s a bug or a confusion in the community version, but it needs to be removed to eliminate the error.
Greetings, I hope this helps some who are experiencing the same issue.
You can see that I’m sending my input to the ReadTextFile activity using in_Config(“MailOK”).ToString. Similarly, I’m using it in intermediate to show that I’m sending the correct variable, and it returns the value:
“C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\SCL_consultores\RPA_Conexion_Zscaler\Data\Input\Plantillas Correos\Email_notificacion_correcta.html’”
which is the file I want to read.
The activity is reading a different path.
“C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\SCL_consultores\RPA_Conexion_Zscaler\C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\SCL_consultores\RPA_Conexion_Zscaler\Data\Input\Plantillas Correos\Email_notificacion_correcta.html”
As I mentioned earlier, my solution was to send the path directly without using variables to parameterize it in the Config.xlsx.
I found the real problem after reviewing it with all possible options, and it turned out that this bug occurred in UiPath Studio version 23.12. I solved it by creating a new project and migrating my workflow to version 24.2.
I didn’t imagine that the 23.12 project version had that bug.
