irpa open pdf timeout

Hi all,

With the newest release of irpa Desktop a new and long awaited functionality - pdf activities - has finally been implemented. Today I wanted to start a test with a simple workflow by opening a pdf file located on my harddrive. When I started the debug mode the opening activity timed out. Do I need any additional extensions installed on my device before being able to work with the new pdf activities or am I doing something wrong? I have installed adobe acrobat reader on my computer.

Best regards,

Raphael

Hello, Could you please share the code and make sure that the timeout is increased by a few seconds and also verify that the PDF file location is right.

Hello Jai,

Thanks for your replay. Please find code attached. Timeout is set to 30 seconds as default value as you can see inside the code. Does this value not suffice?

Regarding the file location I have tried following different values - all with the same result:

'C:\iRPA\Test.pdf'

'C:\\iRPA\\Test.pdf'

'C:/iRPA/Test.pdf'

'C://iRPA//Test.pdf'

code.txt

Kind regards,

Raphael
