User input batch automation

Automise Discussion
1

I am new to Automise and am not really a programmer by trade.  I have used batch files in the past asking user input and I would like to convert these to a GUI Windows type interface as part of my automation routine, is there a way to do that easily in Automise?

Thanks,
Dave

 I found the prompt for variables.  Is there a set of videos and/or examples of how to use Automise to help get me start converting my current batch files to Automise?

Thanks,

Dave

 I am hell bent on learning what I need in order to purchase this product.  I am willing to learn what I need in a scripting language in order to get it done.  I am going to replace some batch files I have been using.  I understand variables since I use them in my batch files.  If I had to pick a script language to learn in order to properly use Automise to replace my batch files it would be Javascript or Python.

Anyways, this is my first day with the product and I am stuck.

I am trying to define a variable and then run one of four options a b c or d.  I am working on just getting "a" to work first.

Here is a link to my screen shot failure.

Hi David

Rather than trying to use the condition for this (which is a script, so the correct condition would be TASK_MALLTV = “a” ) I would suggest using the Flow Control actions. In your case the Switch & case actions would achieve what you want… have a look at the “Flow Control - Switch/Case” sample project.
