15:27 Hey Anders, maybe I am even lazier than you, but I believe that if you leave out the double-quotes in the JSON value when defining the 'numbers', the 'JSON to custom object' action should automatically convert it to an integer in the object and not a string, which should remove the needs to create those two 'Convert text to number' actions.
Hi @andersjensenorg, the process of explanation is very simple and super easy to understand, but as PAD got some update i am unable to get "Switch Case" action to do error handling, so just wanted to know what could be the alternative action I can use in this demo, to have an output.

Hello! Thank you so much. I have a question: is there a way to modify a field of the json that i created in the queue? I would like to increment a value stored over there to handle the requeue mechanism :)

Nice video. I have 1 question. Is the name of the queue item is a unique identifier? Meaning we can't import two same records with the same name? If it is I assume it will throw an error that item is already added? Should we surround add queue item with try/catch and continue the loop in case an exception is caught for duplicate reference? Thanks!

Hello Anders once again 🙂I see that PAD added new queue action and that is great. But, I have a process with dispatcher and worker and Dispatcher is filling the queue items in dedicated WorkQueue. I need to create cloud flow where creation of queue item starts a new Desktop flow. But it only needs to be triggered when queue items are created in that one specific WorkQueue that is created for that process. Is there any way that I could do that through cloud trigger action 'When a row is added, modified or deleted' ? I don't see that option there, I can only choose 'Table name' Work queue items, but can't target in which WorkQueue to trigger from.

using power automation, how can I click a button on website where the name of the button is variable (keeps changing), plus, how can switch between two browsers (e.g. firefox opens a sub window and I need to click a button on that sub window)
Hey taimoorkhan - you create a working selector and maybe even a dynamic selector, where a variable holds the name (if you know it). Kind regards, Anders
I work in both. But my preferences as a company of two people might differ from larger companies 🙂 Power Automate is cheapter than UiPath, but UiPath is more advanced.
Hello Anders, you didn't elaborate on load balancing aspect of work queues. What if I have 10 machines available but only 5 items in the work queue, how is the work load distributed among machines? (without load balancing, work queues, are just as having a dataverse table with some status columns which have been around since the beginning)
what if I have 100 items in the queue, and the number increases during execution of the work queue items by one or more machines? Will it automatically stop when every item in the queue is processed or will it stop after the original 100 items?

Hey Anders, it could be so awesome if you had the time to create a UiPath ike Re-Framework for Power Automate Desktop - "Jensen's Framework Template" :)
Haha, 1000x thanks. My company is called "andersjensenorg", so already a bit too much of myself. Btw have you seen this: ua-cam.com/video/QjrxLPg_TdI/v-deo.html Kind regards, Anders

Lazier and better, thanks a lot Squad - old habbits I guess 😊 Kind regards, Anders
Great, finally, these activities are so important!
Thank you very much, trraucer! 😍

do you prefer UiPath or PowerAutomate?
What are the main pros and cons you see?
