@Adrian_Tamas ,

I tried this - This Worked Perfectly And I was able to view the Recording as Well . After some time when I attempt to RePlay the Recording - Is Says - An Error has occured . Attached Screenshot.

One feedback :slight_smile:

We can think of an Option to add a Filter Here - to Filter out the Jobs which has Recordings or we can Put some Symbol to differentiate the jobs with screenshot / Videos.

This is for the support people monitoring a lot of Jobs.

Thanks, we will look into this.

Thanks for the feedback, will see what we can do. Filtering was initially in scope but the team encountered some challenges in delivering it in v1.

Can we save the recording or share via emails to business groups?

That would be great to get the option to get record from failed transaction. Then this option would be usefull on queue level (not process). In that case if I would need to check some faulted item I could enable that option inside queue settings, clone the item and restart execution.

Hi. It will be included in the next Automation Cloud release. Looking forward to you trying it out and sharing feedback.

FYI - we will also present it in this months’ demo day. Hope you can join.

Can I ask why it’s only the last three minutes of the process? We have gone from using FFmpeg ( no longer seems to work with VMware machines, interrupting selectors, and doesn’t look to be non-legacy convertible) been looking for a solution for this and this seems amazing, but if it’s only the last three minutes we will miss most of our hours-long processes, and be able to watch it handle error reporting only. Needs to be expanded to the whole video and reduced for the process after 3 months to errors only.
will be interested to see where this goes.

thanks Andrew for the question and feedback! As the main use-case of the video recording feature is to troubleshoot faulted jobs, last 3 minutes would cover most failures. When you say you will “miss hours-long processes”, what was the use-case for those hour-long recordings?

As the customer, it is essential for you to have a complete and accurate understanding of the processes running in your organization. Video recording the entire process provides you with the ability to watch and review all stages of the process, including identifying issues that occurred throughout.

While the ability to record the last three minutes of a job is useful in some cases, it is not a sufficient solution for identifying the root cause of an issue that may have occurred hours earlier in the process. By only recording the last three minutes of a job, you may miss important information that occurred earlier in the process.

Additionally, being able to review the entire process E2E and then focus only on the errors at your discretion provides you with greater flexibility and control. It also allows you to have a comprehensive view of the process, which is especially important when dealing with complex workflows that involve multiple systems and stakeholders.

Therefore, as the customer, you should have the ability to choose whether to record the entire process or only the last three minutes, depending on your specific needs. By offering a whole recording, UiPath provides you with the ability to have a complete and accurate view of your processes, which is essential for efficient and effective operations.
