View this page in the latest version of Appian. Preparing to Upgrade RWM Share Share via LinkedIn Reddit Email Copy Link Print On This Page The RWM application was deprecated with Appian 24.1. The application will no longer be updated or pre-installed for new Appian Cloud sites with Appian RPA enabled. RWM will be removed in a future release and we encourage customers to use the Operations Console to manage robots instead. Introduction As your automation practice grows and evolves, you may want to take advantage of the new features that each release of RWM offers. It's important to understand which application objects can be changed (and which can't be changed) so that your future upgrades go smoothly and minimize any risks or extra effort. This page describes the customizations you can make in RWM so you have a smooth upgrade process. Ready to upgrade? See Upgrade RWM for specific steps. Prepare for an upgrade Each RWM release is published as a release package, which you can download from the Appian AppMarket. See Download and Install RWM for more information. Until now, to use a new version of RWM, your customizations need to be recreated or merged from the previous version of RWM that was being used. In a coming release, the upgrade process will be much more intuitive and streamlined for certain customizations. However, if you make any changes to RWM that are not allowed (listed below) you may not be able to upgrade or hotfix the solution without losing those changes. To ensure a smooth upgrade process in the future, we strongly recommend you track your changes and customizations to the app, including updated objects, deleted objects, and new objects. Objects supported during upgrade You can modify the following objects in the RWM application with no impact on future upgrades: Constants: RWM_PROCESS_STATUS_NAME_LIST RWM_PROCESS_STATUS_ID_LIST RWM_BUSINESS_EXCEPTION_NAME_LIST RWM_BPM_FLAG RWM_BPM_HB_TIMER_INTERVAL RWM_BPM_SESSION_BATCH_SIZE RWM_HBT_BATCH_SIZE RWM_UI_ETL_BATCH_SIZE RWM_AA_MAX_BATCH_SIZE RWM_UI_ETL_TIME_INTERVAL RWM_JD_ETL_TIME_INTERVAL RWM_AA_ETL_TIME_INTERVAL RWM_UI_FLAG_PROCESS RWM_BP_FLAG_PROCESS RWM_AA_FLAG_PROCESS RWM_JD_FLAG_PROCESS RWM_AA_HISTORIC_LOAD_FLAG RWM_UI_HISTORIC_LOAD_FLAG RWM_JD_HISTORIC_LOAD_FLAG RWM_AA_HISTORIC_END_DATE RWM_AA_HISTORIC_START_DATE RWM_UI_HISTORIC_END_DATE RWM_UI_HISTORIC_START_DATE RWM_JD_HISTORIC_END_DATE RWM_JD_HISTORIC_START_DATE RWM_HEX_COLOR_AI RWM_HEX_COLOR_APPIAN RWM_HEX_COLOR_RPA RWM_QUEUE_ITEMS_EXPORT_BATCH_SIZE RWM_QUEUE_ITEMS_EXPORT_MAX_SIZE RWM_API_PAGESIZE_VALUE RWM_BP_SESSION_EXPORT_BATCH_SIZE RWM_LOGS_MAXLOGSIZE RWM_SCH_TIME_CONSTRAINT RWM_BP_SCHEDULE_INTERVAL RWM_SCH_START_TIME_CONSTRAINT Process models: RWM Notify on Automation Request RWM UiPath ETL Customization Process RWM AA ETL Customization Process RWM HB Dump BPM Customization Process RWM JD ETL Customization Process Expression rules: RWM_setTaskName RWM_setStatus RWM_setAssigneeBasedOnStatus RWM_onboardingProcessStatusDeadline RWM_automationRequestEmailSubject RWM_automationRequestEmailTemplate RWM_AP_updateRpaCostsEmailTemplate Interfaces: RWM_closedBusinessExceptions RWM_DM_FORM_requestNewRPAProcess RWM_FM_BusinessExceptionCollection RWM_requestSaveButtonText RWM_processOnboardingPrimarySaves RWM_FM_processRecordOnboardingView Decisions: RWM_caseManagementRoutingDetails Connected systems: RWM_UIPath_CSP RWM_AppianRPA Tables (data can be updated and added): RWM_AI_QUESTIONS RWM_LOOKUP_STATUS RWM_SCORE_ASSESSMENT Tables (structure can be modified): RWM_ONBOARDING_NEW_FLOW_DETAILS Data types: RWM_ONBOARDING_NEW_FLOW_DETAIL Objects not supported during upgrades Caution: Don't modify the objects in this section if you want the ability to upgrade RWM in the future. If you must modify one of these objects, duplicate the object, update the application to reference the duplicate, and note the objects you updated.
