An asterisk at the end of a field name in UiPath indicates that the field is mandatory, and you must provide a value for it. This ensures that essential information is provided to configure the activity correctly. If you don’t fill in a mandatory field, UiPath will likely display an error or warning message, preventing you from running the workflow until the required information is provided.Example: “OutputFile*”
Curly braces ({}) in front of fields:
Curly braces are used in UiPath to indicate that a field is an expression field. In UiPath, you can use expressions to dynamically generate values based on variables, calculations, or other dynamic data. By placing curly braces around a field, you are indicating that you can use an expression to set its value. This allows for more flexibility and automation in your workflows.Example: “{VariableName}”
