Blue Prism ships with a ready-to-use set of libraries that integrate with a myriad of applications and common functions that greatly speed up development time. There are two types of libraries: Internal business objects, and visual business objects.
Internal business objects are at the core of Blue Prism. They are built within the Blue Prism application. Some of the commonly used internal business objects are as follows:
- Collections: Adds rows, copies rows, counts columns, counts rows, removes all rows, and removes a single row
- Calendar: Provides actions for getting working days and public holidays from the internally maintained Blue Prism calendar
- Work Queues: Various actions for work queues that we will discuss later in the book.
- Credentials: Getting and setting passwords stored within Blue Prism. Used by the robot to access various applications.
