Variables, Arguments, and Control Flow in Studio (v2020.10)

The Variables, Arguments, and Control Flow in Studio course builds on the information learned in the Get Started with RPA Development course. You will learn about three integral constructs in any software process, and how to work with them in UiPath Studio. 

UiPath arguments, variables, and control flow are foundational in RPA development in Studio. Discover how to use arguments and how to create a new variable in UiPath Studio.  

Product alignment: This course was built using the 2020.10 product version of UiPath Studio and is applicable to newer versions as well. 

This is an intermediate course, covering UiPath arguments, UiPath variables, and UiPath control flow statements, such as If, While, Do While, For Each, Switch, and Parallel. You should have basic programming knowledge and completed the following course: 

• The Get Started with RPA Development course

This course is intended for those seeking to learn about UiPath arguments, UiPath variables, and UiPath control flow. It is an intermediate course for those with foundational RPA development knowledge.  

This course covers several key areas around UiPath arguments, variables, and control flow, including: 

• Variables 

• Invoke Workflow and Arguments 

• Data Types 

• Control Flow Overview 

• The If Statement 

• Loops 

• Switch 

• Parallel 

When you complete the Variables. Arguments, and Control Flow in Studio course, you should be able to: 

• Explain what variables are and what they are used for. 

• Create and configure variables in an automation project. 

• Explain what arguments are and what they are used for. 

• Differentiate between variables and arguments. 

• Use the Invoke Workflow File activity to chain workflow execution and pass data through arguments. 

• Differentiate between the most common control flow statements used in UiPath (If statement, Loops, and Switch) and configure them according to the specifications. 

Once completed, you will receive a Diploma of Completion. Then, you will be ready to build on your knowledge and proceed to the following courses: UI Automation with Studio, Orchestrator for RPA Developers, and DataTables and Excel Automation with Studio.
