BPM coordinates with humans and RPA coordinates with robots. The powerful combination of BPM + RPA offers ideal opportunities for end-to-end automation and optimization of business processes. Maximize human value, process efficiency, and competitive differentiation through automation of routine tasks with robots, automation of processes as a whole, and continuous improvement of critical business processes. Delphine Coille, Evangelist and Community Manager @Bonitasoft, demonstrates end-to-end automation with Bonita and UiPath integration.

12. Native and bi-directional integration
● A native connector to launch
UiPath workflows
● Callback API’s
● 3 activities in UIPath MarketPlace
○ Send a BPM Message
■ BonitaAPI call : SendMessage
○ Start a BPM
■ BonitaAPI call : CreateCase
○ Validate a manuel task
■ BonitaAPI call : executeUserTask

13. Callback from UIPath to Bonita
Bonita Runtime
REST API
Connector execution
SendMessage API
1. Job launch on
asynchronous way
2. Call Back when the job
is executed
● New "SendMessage" REST API to receive a BPM message from external systems:
○ Replicate the java method associated with BPM messages
○ Create a BPM Message
○ May contain data (business, process)
○ Use correlation

15. End to end loan management use case
A loan request is done by a customer and the banking agent is dealing
with the request
UIPath bots started from Bonita
•Manually by the banking agent from a Bonita form
•Automatically from a process connector
