Code Blocks Report

Updated by Anshu Joshi

The Code Blocks Report represents information about the code blocks in RPA tools. For example, the number of lines of codes in the block, language and the number of code blocks in the selected scope to the users. Since not each RPA tool supports a different set of coding languages, this report can be helpful in determining how much work is needed to rewrite code when migrating to a new RPA platform

To access the report:

  1. Navigate to Statistics Dashboard page:
    1. Choose RPA Dashboards and Reports dropdown in the main header, then click Statistics.
  2. Select the Per Process View from the Views dropdown.
  3. Select the desired scope on the top right by clicking Change Scope and click on OK. For more information on selecting a scope, please see Selecting a Scope in Dashboards.
