Accelerator

It is now possible to analyze a process more rapidly by the notion of Accelerator. Accelerators are set of procedures that speed up the analysis process for a particular business use case by providing automatic data acquisition and transformation and predefined dashboards. This release introduces the Procure-to-Pay (P2P) from SAP accelerator that speeds up the analysis of procurement processes on SAP. The P2P Accelerator comes as a technology preview, for more information, see Accelerator documentation.

From Insight to Actions

This release introduces the ability to monitor changes in your business process and react to those insights with dedicated actions. This new capability allows for the ability to detect that the duration or cost of a process has reached a threshold, or that a specific unexpected activity or transition has occurred in your process. You can react to those insights by invoking services such as RESTful services. For more information, see Monitor documentation.

REST API

In release 1.13.1, you can no longer create the token manually. The signature token must be created through the integration/sign API that is implemented in release 1.13.0.0 to help with the creation of the signature token.

The token will now expire after 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, you must invoke the integration/sign api again to create another token.

The way to use the token is unchanged and the new token can be provided through the sign query parameter. The ts and ui query parameters are not used anymore as these parameters are now stored within the token.

Optionally, instead of the sign query parameter, the token can also be provided in the request Authorization Bearer header.

An example of the best way to authenticate is provided in the API documentation.

Robotic Process Automation

In release 1.13.1, you can maintain a library of automation code snippets. These snippets can be referenced across task mining projects and managed and updated centrally. This snippet library supports import and export to manage sharing common automation code across deployments. For more information, see Snippet library.
