A method is provided. The method is implemented by an augmentation engine that is executed by a processor. The method includes detecting a target application hosted by a browser. The method includes augmenting features or functionalities into the target application by automatically embedding predefined automation augmentations into the target application without modifying a source code of the target application. The method includes executing a selected number of the predefined automation augmentations.

Automatic augmentation of a target application within a browser

A process for invoking a robot from an application may include launching the application from a computing system to invoke a robot link embedded within the application. The process may also include initiating from the application a port discovery process to identify a port, port details, and a token. The process may further include generating by the application a randomized code and invoking a consent application requesting approval from a user of the computing system to invoke the robot from the application. The process may also include registering the randomized code with a local listener module and passing user information and the token to a global listener module. The process may further include receiving from the global listener module the token and port identification, allowing the application to authenticate itself with, and communicate with, the robot, thereby completing the robot invoking process.

Robot browser embedding

Application integration for robotic process automation (RPA) using a development application configured for development of RPA-enabled applications is disclosed. The development application in some embodiments may be used for application integration with attended robots that execute locally on the same computing system as an instance of the RPA-enabled application, unattended robots that execute on a remote computing system, or both, creating an RPA-enabled application. One or more user interface (UI) elements, variables, and/or events of an RPA-enabled application may be linked to one or more respective RPA processes, causing respective RPA robot(s) to carry out the associated functionality.

Application integration for robotic process automation

Examples of the disclosure provide for modifying an application from a mobile device. An instruction to modify an application including one or more documents is received at the mobile device. It is determined at the mobile device whether the received instruction is associated with a first type of modification and/or a second type of modification. In response to determining that the received instruction is associated with the first type of modification, a local instance of the document stored at the mobile device is modified at the mobile device. In response to determining that the received instruction is associated with the second type of modification, a remote instance of the document stored at a server device is modified at the server device. Aspects of the disclosure enable a mobile device to strategically modify an application to facilitate managing local resources.
