If your workflow starts a botflow, the botflow could fail. If it fails, it would be nice to go into the workflow instance details and restart it with the original input variables.
The use case where this would have been useful is that our Nintex Gateway Service stopped thus causing the kickoff of the botflow to fail. Restarting the botflow was a laborious task as we had to manually plug in all input variables. It seems like this should be a lot easier than what it is. I guess you could log all input variables to instance details before starting the botflow to help with resuming in case of error, but even this can get tedious.
At the very least log something to instance details like a substitute PowerShell command with curl that would allow the user to easily re-initiate the botflow on their own using the RPA Central API. In my mind, this would be similar to what you have posted under your sample PowerShell scripts in your RPA Central help documentation here.
Hi @Guest ,
In June, Error handling was released - this will allow for workflows to pause when a recoverable failure occurs.
For more information, please have a look over the help documentation.
