Hi @c.ciprian,

Some situations we use delay activity base on the previous activity, for example if you are executing a big bulk insert inside for loop. we use a little delay to close the connection to the sql server after that we use other activities. So the delay is having 3 default value. If you don’t want , you can put it as 0.

Thank you

Hi again @balupad14,

Could you have the activities done without Excel scope, like it’s done on WriteRange, so I can use it on a machine that does not have Excel installed?

Thanks!

Hi @c.ciprian,

At present No. Maybe in future

Hi @balupad14, first of all thank you for your amazing work. I have been using your activities for a while and they are amazing. I have ran into a problem using CopyAsPicture activity. I have a robot that goes and fetches a CSV from a website. Gets the data, puts it in an excel template I have that generates some dashboards. I then take a screenshot of part of the dashboard and send it out to some people. The robot works great while the computer is not locked but the moment I lock it and schedule the robot to run unattended it always fails at the moment it has to generate the picture from the dashboard. Below is the error it spits out. Do you have any idea what may be causing this?

Info: There’s a problem with the clipboard, but you can still paste your content within this workbook.

Hi @balupad14, ignore my last comment other than the fact that you are doing amazing work. I got it to work by putting your excel scope with the activities within the uipath excel scope.
