Code Blocks Report

The Code Blocks Report displays the types, count, and language of code blocks in the RPA code. 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
