RPA 11.4.0 Release Notes
All the new features and enhancements included in Kofax RPA 11.4.0
Quick RPA for Kofax TotalAgility
This release integrates RPA functionality in TotalAgility Quick Apps. Starting with TotalAgility version 7.11.0, a dedicated RPA API makes it possible to create, manage, export, and import robot workflows. For example, TotalAgility users can perform the following tasks:
-
Select robots
-
Show robot thumbnails for easy visual identification
-
Automatically create the model as data objects required to pass data between robots
-
Automatically select and subsequently map the data objects between robots or sub robots
OAuth Server Menu Option
Use the OAuth server menu option in Management Console to view, change, and revoke OAuth secrets for token-based authentication. The option has three tabs:
-
Kapplets
-
Service DAS
-
Synchronizer
Synchronizer OAuth Commands
To support OAuth token-based authentication, two commands are available for use in the synchronizer.settings file:
-
oauth-client-secret
-
oauth-client-secret-file
Instead of authorizing by username and password, use token-based authorization by setting a client secret.
Kintone Added as Provider
Kintone is now a supported provider for OAuth.
RoboServer Licenses
The following enhanced and new UI elements are available to assign licenses on RoboServers.
-
Moved the button for the distribution of license units among clusters from the menu to the main table listing the clusters and RoboServers.
-
Added a new window and menu option to dynamically display the option for assigning clusters, based upon the licenses used. The menu option is either Assign CRE to RoboServers or Assign KCU to RoboServers. Configure RoboServers to distribute licenses automatically or manually.
-
Added limited license parameter -11
Expand Flow Icon
A new icon appears on the Robot toolbar. Use the new icon to:
-
Expand the flow of selected steps.
-
Expand all selected steps that contain flow lines inside them, such as Group, Loop, and Conditional steps.
Calculate Key Step
Use this robot step to calculate the key for a variable value. The value must be of a complex user-defined type, specified in a .type file.
For Each Email Step
Use this step to open an application in the Recorder View with a single message from the selected email folder.
Iterate Directory Step
Use this step to iterate over all entries (files, directories, and other objects) in a directory. Although you can nest Iterate Directory steps, programming recursive or infinite loops will not work.

Find and Delete Database Values
Find and delete database values using the new Find in Database and Delete from Database steps.

Finder Updater Tool
Use the Finder Updater Tool to modify finder names by searching and replacing the names for all robots in a project. Also, use this tool to migrate robots from Internet Explorer to Microsoft Edge.
