Types of Workflows
UiPath offers the following four diagrams for integrating activities into a working structure when developing a workflow file.
Sequence
Flowchart
State Machine
Global Exception Handler
Sequence
Sequences have a simple linear representation that flows from top to bottom and are best suited for simple scenarios when activities follow each other. They are easy to assemble and understand.
Flowcharts
Flowcharts offer more flexibility for connecting activities and tend to lay out a workflow in a plain two-dimensional manner. Because of its free form and visual appeal, flowcharts are best suited for showcasing decision points within a process.
State Machine
State Machine is a rather complex structure that can be seen as a flowchart with conditional arrows, called transitions. It enables a more compact representation of logic and we found it suitable for a standard high-level process diagram of transactional business process templates. Eg :Re-Framework
Global Exception Handler
Global Exception Handler is designed to be used in small and large automation projects, for identifying automation errors and most importantly, determining the workflow behavior when such an error occurs. If an execution error is encountered during debugging, the Global Exception Handler may be set to step in and allows us to check the workflow's behavior in accordance to the options previously set in the Exception Handler.
