ā¢ The second method of automating User Interfaces is using the Web/App
Recorder feature
ā¢ Adding activities for all the actions you perform within User Interfaces can
become quite time-consuming. Let's see how you can record your actions on
the screen and translate them into StudioX activities.
Using the Web/App Recorder feature
Cool! Can I use the Recorder an all applications?
The Recorder works only on automating User Interfaces. It will not work for tasks involving
Excel, Outlook, Word, or files and folders automation, where you still need to add the activities
one by one.

What is Word Automation ?
As a business user, you most likely work with Word templates.
Let's see how StudioX can help reduce your workload by enabling
you to automate tedious and repetitive Word-based activities.
StudioX Word Automation offers a number of activities that
automate the tasks you usually perform when working with Word
templates.
33. 33
What can you automate?
Examples of Word documents that are usually prepared using
the same template includeā¦ resumes, letters, brochures,
reports, etc
Word Automation basically involves the use of Word templates, which will
have placeholders for text, hyperlinks, images, tables, charts, etc.
A given template can be used to prepare a number (few to very many) of
Word documents, which can be remain in Word format or saved as PDF.
