TAP Studio v24.8 includes multiple redesigned components and modules to provide users and developers an even greater toolset for building flexible, powerful automations. These feature changes and updates to the workflow execution engine, new exception transitions as well as improvements to the expression evaluation engine.

New features

New Exception Transitions

TAP now supports two different types of transitions, offering more flexibility in designing workflows. The newly added exception transitions offer users and developers a fast, easy and flexible way of handling run-time exceptions. These transitions are only activated when an exception is triggered and offer granular detection and handling of any potential or unwanted errors.

Workflow Execution Engine

The workflow execution engine has been redesigned and offers greater stability and performance.

Quality of life improvements

TAP now includes a couple of QOL improvements, aimed at increasing productivity and efficiency. These feature:

  • Automated solution backup mechanism that creates automatic backups of solutions and their workflows

  • Action properties sorting displays properties in a more relevant way for developers, prioritizing the most commonly used properties for easy access

  • Advanced debugging tools that alow for detail information collection in the case of unexpected errors, including full stack traces and desktop screenshots (for UI Control Identifier debugging)

Resolved Issues

This release of TAP Studio comes with many fixes and corrections:

  • Issue #467 - fixed issue where running TAP Assistant under a folder with no read access would cause it to crash.

  • Issue #485 - fixed issue that sometimes lead to memory leaks within the TAP.Runtime process when using certain kinds of expressions.

  • Issue #487 - fixed issue invoking C# Scripts many times would cause memory leaks within the TAP.Runtime process.

  • Issue #489 - fixed issue where renaming solutions would sometimes cause TAP Studio to crash.

Issue #491 - fixed issue where saving a solution would crash TAP Studio due to a bug within the xml entities under the .NET Framework.
