Which type of exceptions can be handled in UiPath?

In UiPath, a broad range of exceptions can be handled, specifically including system, business, and application exceptions, which forms the basis for robust error handling in automation workflows.

System exceptions represent technical errors often related to issues within the UiPath platform, such as file access permissions or disconnects from applications. They may arise during the execution of a process and can significantly disrupt functionality, necessitating efficient handling to ensure reliability.

Business exceptions differ from system exceptions in that they stem from business logic or rule violations. For instance, if a user tries to process an order that is incomplete or not in accordance with business rules, this would generate a business exception. Handling these exceptions is crucial for maintaining the integrity of business processes.

Application exceptions represent errors that are specific to the applications the bot interacts with. These can occur due to unexpected application behavior, such as an unexpected dialog box appearing in a user interface, which could halt the bot's operations if not efficiently managed.

By incorporating mechanisms to handle these various types of exceptions, UiPath enables developers to build more resilient automations that can manage a range of operational challenges without crashing or producing inaccurate results, thereby improving overall automation performance. This comprehensive error handling capability is essential for ensuring continuous and smooth operations in an
