Course details
UiPath is a software technology that lets you create automated processes and activities like data scraping, clicks, types, and API calls without having to start from scratch. In this course, Sarah Ghanem provides an introduction to UiPath and shows you how to utilize back-end automation with APIs and web services. Sarah’s project-based course guides you through a real-world usage example—how to retrieve an update of a stock investment portfolio—to show you how to integrate APIs into your work. She takes you step-by-step through building a process using the RE Framework that adheres to industry standards and is scalable and maintainable and shares the knowledge and skills necessary to construct a robust and effective process using UiPath.
