Blue Prism Exam AD01 Topic 2 Question 63 Discussion

Actual exam question for Blue Prism's AD01 exam
Question #: 63
Topic #: 2
[All AD01 Questions]

A Blue Prism Process has been developed which contains steps to extract data from a delimited file.

During development, the Developer saves the delimited file to C:\BP_Proc\Temp folder on their virtual desktop and adds a data item to the process to store this file path. This data item is then used in the process steps to extract the file data.

The production Process must read this file from a network folder, and as the Blue Prism production environment is locked down, the Process configuration cannot be edited in this environment.

How could the data item 'exposure' be updated, so that the process can read the data item containing the relevant file path, regardless of the environment the process is being executed in?

Suggested Answer: B

Environmental variables are those variables that are available to all processes and business objects. So, these variables are used as dynamic variables, to make sure they can be used whenever required across the Blue Prism platform.

I'm not sure, but I think option C) Update the data item exposure to 'Session' could also work.

I agree with Margart, updating the data item exposure to 'Environment' makes sense in this scenario.

That's an interesting perspective, Johnson. However, I still think 'Environment' is the most appropriate option in this case.

I see both points, but I think updating the exposure to 'Session' would be better. It ensures that each session has its own unique data item value.

I disagree, I believe the exposure should be updated to 'Shared'. This way, the data item can be accessed by all environments and it's more flexible.
