Lots of technologies mentioned, lots of information given but now what… How do these come together? Power BI Desktop is available for download at no cost and is a very user friendly platform used to develop reports and dashboards. The industry leading tool in this space is Microsoft’s Power BI. Since visualisation is an important layer used to understand the underlying data and UiPath have not yet catered for the capability, other tools and options should be considered as a ‘stop gap’. Unfortunately there is not an integration between Data Service and Insights just yet. UiPath Insights is a good tool to use for visualisations for data that is not living in Data Service. UiPath has a product referred to as UiPath Insights in the product suite which is aimed at building visualisations from data within the environment (currently specific to UiPath Automation Hub and UiPath Orchestrator). For this, UiPath relies heavily on the UiPath Data Service activity and the UiPath Data Service API. The power that data enables which ties everything together is the ability to integrate and visualise the available data. UiPath Data Service has become a sophisticated way to encapsulate data and information used in automation solutions within the UiPath platform without needing to invest in additional infrastructure.
