ActionHandler

Add-ons of iPA that get assigned a particular task in a process, are called Actionhandlers. They are used, for example, to send e-mails, to generate PDFs or even retrieve e-mails and process them. With iPA, an appropriate handler can be created for any conceivable use. At the end of this page is a list of currently available handlers.


Configuring an Action Handler

Actionhandlers are configured on activities in the diagram using the Automation Properties page. For this, an Activity is selected and Automation Properties is chosen from the toolbox. There, the desired Handler can be added and configured.
