When a job fails after successfully completing some steps (e.g., steps one and two), how can you resume execution from the point of failure (e.g., step three) without restarting from the beginning? This allows bypassing completed steps and resuming from a designated intermediate point.

Hey @AutoBot_Edge The most common approach is to use a checkpoint mechanism, where the process saves its current progress (e.g. to a file, Orchestrator queue item, or Asset). After each major step (Step 1, Step 2…), you store a marker of completion. When the process restarts, it reads that marker …

Hey @AutoBot_Edge , Resuming Execution from Failure Point in UiPath To restart from the point of failure without repeating completed steps, use these methods: Use State Machine (Best for REFramework) Store progress in a transactional state (e.g., Step 1, Step 2). On failure, restart from the la…

Hi @AutoBot_Edge Welcome to UiPath, you can track progress using a variable like “StepToResume” to indicate the last successful step. After each step, update this variable and use conditional logic to check its value, allowing you to skip already completed steps If you found helpful, feel free to…

@AutoBot_Edge You need one place to store your current step. Design should be modified accordingly If you want this feature in Performer - I would suggest you to create a transaction item property to store next step and update it after the completion of each step Other option would be to use a da…

Its worth paying attention to Maestro, if you design your process high level in Maestro you’ll be able to resume from a point of value, aswell as being able to manipulate variables in memory aswell. Its going to be a great way to try to resume from a failure.

Hello @sharazkm32 I am a beginner at UiPath and currently not very familiar with the concepts of transactions and queues. I hope you can share this XAML file with me as I would like to further my learning. Thank you

Hi @AutoBot_Edge

You can use Set Transaction Progress activity after each steps i.e., step1, step2 and step3

Use if activity before sequence(i.e., Step1, Step2 and Step3) and check

In_TransactionItem.Progress.Equals("Step1 Done")

If yes, Step1 is completed. like that do for all steps
