Loop and Condition Control Flow in Automation
An automation in SAP Build Process Automation is a bot-based workflow component that a developer builds to perform repetitive tasks automatically, such as extracting data, interacting with desktop applications, or processing files like Excel spreadsheets. Developers use automations to integrate with tools like the Excel SDK or Outlook SDK, enabling end-to-end process automation without manual intervention. Automations can be recorded and then customized, and they support structured data types such as lists as inputs and outputs when connected to decision artifacts in a broader process.
