1. In RPA, what is a 'reusable component' (or library component)?
Reusable components are pre-built automation blocks (e.g., login routines) packaged for reuse across different RPA workflows.
2. Which UiPath recording mode captures both keyboard and mouse interactions with web applications?
Web Recording mode is optimized for browser-based applications and captures clicks and keystrokes using reliable browser-aware selectors.
3. What is 'ROI' typically used to measure in an RPA program?
Return on Investment (ROI) measures the financial benefit of an RPA program by comparing cost savings and productivity gains to total implementation costs.
4. In Automation Anywhere, what is the purpose of 'Packages'?
Packages in Automation Anywhere A360 are modular collections of pre-built actions (e.g., Excel Package, Email Package) used to build bots faster.
5. Which RPA component is responsible for storing and managing reusable automation assets like credentials and queues?
The Orchestrator (or Control Room in some platforms) centrally manages assets, credentials, queues, and schedules for all robots.
6. Why is 'data encryption' important when RPA bots handle sensitive information?
Encrypting data that bots handle — both in transit and at rest — ensures that sensitive information remains protected even if log files or transfers are compromised.
