v26.7.8.11
This release delivers new features, enhancements, and bug fixes to improve usability and the overall Robility Flow experience.
Limitations
1. Upgrading the Credential Vault and related variable components will remove existing global variables as part of the migration to project-level variables. Back up all variables and workflows before upgrading. Global variables must be recreated after the upgrade.
2. Version History will track only workflows published after the upgrade. Previously published versions will remain available in Robility Manager but will not appear in Version History or be eligible for scheduling. To enable these features, export and rename (for example, FlowName.1.0.0 → FlowName), and republish the workflow.
3. The Loop component has been enhanced to resolve stale and duplicate Datatable updates. Updating the component will remove all nodes within the Loop component and associated Datatable values. Back up the workflow before upgrading.
4. When processing large files with the Read File component, increase the Timeout and Retry Count settings to ensure successful OCR extraction.
What’s New
1. Auto Session Timeout for Inactive Users
Added configurable session timeout support for Design Time environments. When a user remains inactive beyond the configured duration, they are prompted to extend the session or log out. If no action is taken, the user is automatically logged out. This feature does not apply to Runtime environments.
2. Embed into Site
Added support for embedding Robility Flow Chat into external websites using a lightweight script and web component, enabling seamless chatbot-based interaction with automated workflows.
Enhancements
1. Variable Management
Redesigned variable management by moving it from Settings to the Flow Canvas Graph Menu. Variables are now scoped at the project level instead of the user level, improving organization, maintainability, and governance through environment-specific access.
2. Shareable Playground
Users can now share a playground without requiring authentication. Flows must contain both Input and Output components. A shareable link with a temporary API key can be generated from the menu and remains valid for 20 minutes.
3. Project Level Variables
Manage variables at the project level to keep project-specific configurations isolated while improving governance, collaboration, and security across automation teams
Bug Fixes
1. Read File Component
Resolved an issue where OCR did not correctly extract content when using the Read File component.
2. Datatable Components
Resolved an issue where Datatable components updated stale data during loop execution.
Known Issues
1. The Invoke Flow component does not currently support tool mode. (Tentative fix: Aug 2026)
2. The Robility Flow Scheduler may throw a timeout exception for workflows with execution times exceeding 2 minutes. (Tentative fix: August 2026.)
3. Deleting a project also removes all associated flows, and they cannot be recovered. (Tentative fix: Aug 2026)
4. If the description field is removed from the flow JSON before import, the workflow is still uploaded with an empty description. (Tentative fix: Aug 2026)
5. Flow names are user-specific, allowing multiple users to create flows with the same name, which may result in duplicate solution names and versions. (Tentative fix: Aug 2026)
6. Newly generated API keys currently apply to all workflow versions. This will be updated to restrict keys to specific versions in future releases. (Tentative fix: Aug 2026)
7. The Web Scraper component does not support extracting data from JavaScript-based web pages. (Tentative fix: Aug 2026)
