Building Blocks: Placeholder | UBIO Robot School

Robot School is the knowledge & learning centre for the Automation Cloud

This lesson introduces another handy building block – a Placeholder for an action. Learn what it is and how our team utilises it in daily practice.

Placeholder is a pipeline that can turn into any action of your choice when you're ready.

Placeholders allow you to think in terms of pipes first. Experiment with the page elements, connect them with the data. Once ready, right-click on your Placeholder and do Change type... to turn it into action.
Mind that the Script is not final while there are any placeholders in it. If you try to play it, it will fail as the playback gets to a placeholder that is not actionable.
