Welcome to this module on using commands for Automation Anywhere Enterprise Client Part 3 and using the MetaBot Designer. The Finance Department of Logix is automating their repetitive and time-consuming process of adding employees details in Logix's online employee details survey. This mammoth task is performed with the help of Automation Anywhere Enterprise or AAE client's commands and further simplified by using AAE client's MetaBot Designer. This together with workbench allows anyone to create multiple MetaBots and then reuse them to build TaskBots to be deployed organization-wide thus scaling the automation process effectively across Logix. Additionally, Logix also follows some best practices during automation development. In this module, you will first learn about the Excel command. This command is useful while working with data within a spreadsheet and copying data across spreadsheets. It also helps you to transfer data to and from other applications and websites. Next, you will explore the PDF Integration command. This command helps you to quickly extract text or convert every page of a PDF document into an image. You can also use the PDF Integration command to easily automate routine tasks such as merging or splitting documents as well as encrypting and decrypting them. Then you will move on to the PGP command which helps you automate encryption and decryption easily and effectively through both symmetric and asymmetric methods. Next you will learn about the XML command. This command helps in processing XML information generated from web services and Cloud-computing applications. You will then learn about the MetaBot Designer. You will see how MetaBots, the reusable blueprints of an application shrink deployment time, reduce operational costs, and amplify returns on your investment or ROI for automation initiatives by more than 50 percent. You can easily build them by using MetaBot Designer. This comes pre-installed with AAE Client and finally, you will learn about the development best practices. By the end of this module, you will be able to describe the importance of the Excel command of AAE, demonstrate how to use the Excel command to automate tasks, identify the capabilities and sub-commands of the PDF integration command, demonstrate how to use the PDF integration command and it's sub-commands. to automate tasks. Describe PGP command, it's sub-commands, and features. Demonstrate how to use the PGP command and it's sub-commands to automate tasks, describe the XML command and it's features and identify the sub-commands, demonstrate how to use the XML command and it's sub-commands to automate tasks, describe what MetaBots are, identify features of MetaBot designer in AAE client, demonstrate how to create a MetaBot and integrate it into an Automation TaskBot, and describe the best practices to be followed when working with AAE. The AAE commands, MetaBot designer, and development best practices put together help organizations like Logix scale there automation process effectively. How? Let's find out.
