The 23.12.0 release of Robomotion RPA introduces a new flag ( --enable-features ) for experimental features similar to the Chromium project. The feature added in this version is LargeMessageObjects which supports very large objects to be passed between the nodes. Other updates include new features in the Subflow Library, enhanced Debug node functionalities, and improvements in the Excel package and FTP connections.

Here is the Changelog for this release:

⚡️ [Added] Subflow Library Tagging: Introduced tagging support for the Subflow Library feature.

🛠️ [Fixed] Subflow Library Shared Import: Resolved issues with shared subflow library imports.

🛠️ [Fixed] Subflow Library Overwrite Version: Addressed overwriting issues in the Subflow Library versioning.

⚡️ [Improved] Debug Extra Fields: Additional fields have been added to the Debug node. Previously, if you needed to debug only 2 or 3 fields in a crowded message object, it required multiple Debug nodes. Now, a single Debug node suffices for this purpose.

🔄 [Moved] Forgot Workspace option: Relocated the 'Forgot Workspace' feature to the main sign in page.

⚡️ [Added] Tray Already Connected Dialog: Implemented a warning message box for scenarios where the robot is already connected.

⚡️ [Improved] Exception Dialog: Added robot name, robot version, and package version to the exception dialog for quicker issue resolution.

⚡️ [Added] Excel Clear Range: Introduced a 'Clear Range' node in the default Excel package.

⚡️ [Improved] Get Sheets: Enhanced the 'Get Sheets' node with more metadata information.

⚡️ [Added] $MachineName$ Variable: Added a new global system variable for machine name.

⚡️ [Added] FTP Private Key: Enabled SFTP and FTPS connections using a private key file.

🔁 [Renamed] HTML Template: Changed 'HTTP Template' to 'HTML Template'.

⚡️ [Added] Excel Create Pivot Table: Added a 'Create Pivot Table' node to the default Excel package.

⚡️ [Improved] Browser -> Type Text: Updated the 'Type Text' feature to simulate human typing.

⚡️ [Added] --enable-features=LargeMessageObjects Flag: Introduced a new experimental flag for activating advanced features.

⚡️ [Improved] Large Message Objects: Enhanced message object handling for larger sizes and better flow performance. A test flow is available at

(Note: This feature requires the '--enable-features=LargeMessageObjects' flag and is only compatible with the Cryptography package and 23.12.0 version of the robot - older robot versions will fail to run this test flow).
