Get robotic task history

POST: /robot/history

This endpoint returns the list of modifications made to a robotic task in the specified date range. If no date range is specified, it returns all modifications.

If a robotic task has never been modified, this endpoint will return an empty list for historyList. This means that the date of creation is never returned as it's not persisted as a history record.

Request body

The dateRange parameter refers to when a robot was modified.

Parameter Example Required? Description
dateRange.start 1461457843868 No Date and time expressed in UNIX epoch time
Units: milliseconds
dateRange.end 1561457843866 No Date and time expressed in UNIX epoch time
Units: milliseconds
robotName 60cb47c3546ede51ffe04dbb Yes The robotic task id, found in the RPA console.
pageSize 50 No The number of entries to return on each page of results. Acceptable values are between 1 and 250. 250 is the default.

    "robotName" : "60cb47c3546ede51ffe04dbb",
    "dateRange": {
            "start" : 1622505600000,
            "end" : 1625097599000
    }, 
    "pageSize": 50
}

Response

The call is successful if "invocationResult" = "OK".

The nextPageToken property is a token used to retrieve the next page of results. To use it, append the nextPageToken key and value to your original request body. The token is valid for 10 minutes and the response keeps generating a new nextPageToken as long as there are more results to retrieve. Each subsequent request should use the nextPageToken sent back in the previous response. When nextPageToken is null in the response, the current page is the last one and there are no more entries to retrieve.

The following elements are provided in the result.historyList key.

Element Example Data type Description
robotName "60cb47c3546ede51ffe04dbb" String The robotic task id, matching the one contained in the request.
robotCustomName "testRobot" String Human-readable name given to the robotic task.
username "admin" String Username of person who modified the robotic task.
lastUpdated 1569334342000 String Date and time the robotic task was modified, expressed in UNIX epoch time
