Get Data Types

Properties

This activity does not require any input properties, as it retrieves all available data types from the platform.

Usage

1. Setup Activity:
   • Add the "Get Data Types" activity to your UiPath workflow.
   • No additional configuration is necessary, as the activity is designed to retrieve all data types available on the platform.
2. Execution:
   • The activity executes asynchronously, querying the platform to retrieve a collection of data type objects.
   • It uses the configured API context to access the data types via the system client.
3. Output:
   • The activity returns aList<DataTypeViewModel>, representing the collection of platform-specific data types.

Considerations

• Data Retrieval: The activity retrieves all available data types from the platform, which can then be used in subsequent workflow steps for various operations.
• Permissions: Verify that the necessary permissions are in place for the user or application retrieving the data types to prevent unauthorized actions.
• Error Handling: Implement error handling to manage potential issues such as network connectivity problems or unexpected API responses.
