IA-Connect is a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) platform which adds RPA functionality from Power Automate Cloud Flows to on-premises virtual machines or over Citrix or Microsoft Remote Desktop (RDS) connections. The IA-Connect Connectors provide over 650 actions, allowing you to automate every type of on-premise application directly from a Power Automate Cloud Flow. All IA-Connect actions are available directly from your Power Automate Cloud Flow providing easy integration between Cloud based and on-premises applications, the ability to leverage existing Power Automate conditions, loops, dynamic content, expressions and exception handling in your RPA processes. Utilising the IA-Connect Connectors also provides full execution history and auditability from the Flow run history whilst also removing the need to have a separate application/console/studio for developing your RPA processes.

Prerequisites

To use any of the IA-Connect Connectors, you must install the IA-Connect software. This is free to test for 30 days, following which you will require an IA-Connect license.

The IA-Connect software consists of two main components:

The IA-Connect Orchestrator, which is an Azure WebApp which you would host in your own Azure tenant. This handles the routing and security of RPA Flows to one or more on-premises or cloud-based virtual machines.
The IA-Connect Agent and Director, which is installed onto the virtual machines where the software you wish to automate is accessible. Additionally, the IA-Connect Agent can run inside a Citrix or Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS) session, where the RPA commands are passed down a virtual channel into the remote session for execution. The IA-Connect Agent can be run from a network share and does not require installation.

Available IA-Connect Connectors

The available IA-Connect Connectors are:

IA-Connect Dynamic Code
IA-Connect Java
IA-Connect Mainframe
IA-Connect Microsoft Office
IA-Connect SAP GUI
IA-Connect Session
IA-Connect UI

Actions

Are Java element handles the same	Compares two Java element handles for Java elements to see if they represent the same Java object. This can be useful if you have identified an element and retrieved a handle to its parent.
Check Java element	Sets the state of an element (typically a checkbox or radio box) to either checked or unchecked.
Connect to Java Access Bridge	Starts the IA-Connect Java subsystem (IA-JavaAccessBridge) and connects it to the specified Java Access Bridge DLL (or leave blank to search for one). This step must be performed before you can automate Java applications. This action also enables the Java Access Bridge which must be enabled before running any Java applications.
Create handle for Java element at screen coordinate	Creates a handle to a Java element by providing the screen coordinates. If a Java element exists at the specified coordinate, the action will identify the element and return a handle to it.
Disconnect from Java Access Bridge	Shuts down any running IA-Connect Java subsystem (IA-JavaAccessBridge).
Does Java desktop element exist	Reports whether a Java desktop element exists and provides some basic element properties.
Does Java element exist	Reports whether a Java element exists and returns some basic element properties.
Draw rectangle around Java element	Draws a rectangle around the perimeter of a Java element to aid in identifying that the element found is the one required. The rectangle is automatically removed after 5 seconds.
Expand Java selection element	Expands or collapses a Java element (typically a menu / dropdown item). If the item is already expanded, nothing will happen.
Focus Java element	Focusses a Java element which makes it the active element for keyboard focus and, depending on the application, may bring the element window to the foreground.
Get actions for Java element	Returns the accessible actions for a Java element. These accessible actions can then be performed on the element by using the action name as an input to the action 'Perform action on Java element', for example 'click' or 'select-all'.
Get all Java child element properties	Returns all properties of all Java child elements. This can be useful if you are uncertain which field holds the property values required.
Get Java child element properties	Returns all properties of a specific Java child element, specified by index. This can be useful if you are uncertain which field holds the property values required.
Get Java desktop elements	Returns a list of Java application windows and dialogs on the desktop. You must first connect to the Java Access Bridge.
Get Java element properties	Returns all Java properties of a Java element. This can be useful if you are uncertain which field holds the property values required.
Get Java element properties as list	Returns the properties of a Java element as a single line list (single line collection / data table) instead of individual items, this maybe useful depending on how you intend to use the data.
Get Java element text value	Returns the text value of a Java element. A text value is usually associated with a text element, but many elements can have this property.
Get Java element value	Returns the value of an element. A value is usually associated with a text input area, but many elements can have this property.
Get Java parent element properties	Returns the properties of the parent element of a Java element. This action will only return the properties of the direct parent element and will not search the entire height of the element tree.
Get Java properties for UIA element	Returns all Java properties of a UIA element. This can be useful if you are uncertain which field holds the property values required.
Get Java role CSV from element handle	Returns the tree of element roles below the specified element handle as CSV. This action would only be used for development purposes and provides an overview of the elements of the application which can be useful for visualising the application structure and optimising element searches.
Get Java role CSV from element search	Performs a Java element search and outputs the details of the elements searched (up to the point where the element was found) as CSV. This action would only be used for development purposes and provides an overview of the elements of the application which can be useful for visualising the application structure and optimising element searches.
Get Java selection element items	Returns all child selection element items found under the specified Java selection element. You can choose to retrieve the selection element options either by looping through the selection, selecting each individual option in the list OR by reading the labels of the child elements of the selection. If you choose to retrieve the selection element options by reading the labels of the child elements of the selection, you will likely need to expand the selection first by providing the 'Expand first' parameter as 'True' and you can then optionally close the selection afterwards by also providing the 'Collapse after' parameter as 'True'.
Get Java selection state by index	Returns the selection state of a child element in a selection (typically an item in a list or drop-down) by providing the child element index. You can retrieve all selection child element items to check their index by using the action 'Get Java selection element items'.
Get Java selection state by name	Returns the selection state of a child element in a selection (typically an item in a list or drop-down) by providing the child element name. You can retrieve all selection child element items to check their name by using the action 'Get Java selection element items'.
Get Java table cell at screen coordinate	If a Java table cell that is a child element of the table exists at the specified coordinates, this action will identify the element, its properties and will optionally return a handle to the table cell element.
Get Java table cell properties	Returns the properties and contents of a specified cell within a Java table element. This is an element with rows, columns, a header and cells (i.e. a table). You can optionally specify whether to determine which if the cell is currently visible on screen and it's coordinates by enumerating the viewport. The viewport element typically contains the table (e.g. it is a parent element of the table) and represents the visible area of the table.
Get Java table contents	Returns the contents of a Java table element. This is an element with rows, columns, a header and cells (i.e. a table).
Get Java table properties	Returns the properties of a Java table element. This is an element with rows, columns, a header and cells (i.e. a table). You can optionally specify whether to determine which components of the table are currently visible on screen by enumerating the viewport. The viewport element typically contains the table (e.g. it is a parent element of the table) and represents the visible area of the table.
Get multiple Java parent element properties	Returns the properties of all parent elements of a Java element. This action will search the entire height of the element tree returning all parent properties if the 'Max parents to process' parameter is set high enough.
Get visible bounding rectangle of Java element	Retrieves the visible bounds of a Java element. Typically, the Java Access Bridge will return the virtual positional values of an element, regardless of whether the element is visible on screen and these virtual values are provided by the 'Get Java element properties' action. With larger elements (e.g. a table element which can scroll) as these may not always be visible on screen, this action returns the coordinates of the currently visible area of the element.
Get windows access bridge connection status	Returns the current status of the connection between IA-Connect Agent and the Windows Access Bridge (WAB). If IA-Connect Agent is connected to the WAB then the relevant details are returned as outputs.
Get windows access bridge info	Returns information about the Windows Access Bridge (WAB) for a particular Java VM ID, including the Java and Windows DLL versions. The Java VM ID can be obtained as an output from the 'Get Java element properties' action.
Global double left mouse click on Java element	Moves the mouse to the centre of a Java element and double clicks the left mouse button.
Global input password into Java element	Moves the mouse to centre of the Java element, focusses it, left clicks, and presses keys. Typically used with a password input that will not accept native UIA input methods.
Global input text into Java element	Moves the mouse to centre of the Java element, focusses it, left clicks, and presses keys. Typically used with a text input that will not accept native UIA input methods.
Global left mouse click on Java element	Moves the mouse to the centre of a Java element and clicks the left mouse button.

Is Java table cell visible onscreen	Returns whether a specific table cell within a Java table element is currently visible onscreen.
Is Java window	Returns whether a UIA window is a Java element.
Perform action on Java element	Performs an accessible action for a Java element. These accessible actions for a specific element can be queried by using the 'Get actions for Java element' action. Some common actions are 'click' for a button or 'select-all' for a text element.
Press Java element	Presses a Java element (typically a button).
Reset all Java element handles	Resets all Java element handles currently stored by IA-Connect which can be useful if you have been identifying a lot of elements and have a large number of element handles stored. In scenarios with extremely high numbers of element handles (100,000+) this action can also be used to free up RAM usage.
Select Java list element by index	Selects the list element that matches the specified index. This is typically used to select an item in a dropdown / menu item.

For drop-down lists you will almost certainly need to set the 'Expand first' parameter to 'True' because the child elements aren't exposed until the list drops down. Also set the 'Collapse after' parameter to 'True' to close the list afterwards. The 'Get list of options by selecting' parameter should also be set to 'False' or this option will be ignored (as you can't get the list via both methods). If set to 'False' (the default) then the 'Get list of options by selecting' parameter should be set to 'True' otherwise the list of options will not be read.

Parameters

Name	Key	Required	Type	Description
Parent element JAB handle	SearchParentElementJABHandle	True	integer	The Java element handle which is a parent of the element you are searching for. This could be a window you located earlier using 'Wait for Java desktop element'.
Search Java element name	SearchElementJABName		string	The optional Java name of the element to search for. This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search Java element description	SearchElementJABDescription		string	The optional Java element description of the element to search for. This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search Java element role	SearchElementJABRole		string	The optional Java element role of the element to search for. This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search child elements	SearchSubTree		boolean	If set to true then the whole tree below the parent window handle will be searched. This is more thorough but can take longer. If set to false, only elements directly below the parent window handle in the tree will be searched.
Maximum relative depth	MaxRelativeDepth		integer	The maximum relative depth to search from the parent element for child elements. Direct child elements will have a depth value of 0.
Match index	MatchIndex		integer	If multiple elements match the search, which element (starting at 1) should be matched. Can be used in conjunction with 'Sort by column' to choose the sort order for matching.
Search filter	SearchFilter		string	An optional advanced filter to further restrict the search using conditional operators and any element field. Example 1: [Width] < 200. Example 2: [Name] like 'Document' AND [Role] like 'Label'. See the documentation for more examples.
Sort by column name	SortByColumn		string	If multiple elements match the search, this allows you to specify which element property to sort by. This will be used in conjunction with 'Match index' to pick the required element. For example: If 'Sort by column name' is [TopEdge] and 'Match index' is 1 then the matching element nearest the top of the screen will be matched.
Match index is ascending	MatchIndexAscending		boolean	If multiple elements match the search, should 'Match index' match from the top of the sorted list (true) or from the bottom of the sorted list (false).
Case sensitive search	CaseSensitiveSearch		boolean	Should the element search be case sensitive? When set to True, only elements matching the exact string/text searches will be returned. By default, this is set to false.
Only search visible elements	OnlySearchVisibleElements		boolean	Should only visible elements be searched? By default, this is set to true.

By default, these are: Panel, Viewport, Layered pane, Root pane.
Viewport left margin	ViewportLeftMargin		integer	A left inner margin for the enumerated viewport. This value can be used to exclude any cells which might be only showing by a single pixel or two and are almost entirely offscreen. By default, this is set to 2 and should only be increased if you are trying to influence the data returned by the IA-Connect Agent.

Get list of options by reading labels	GetListOfOptionsByReadingLabels		boolean	If set to 'True' (the default) then the IA-Connect Agent will attempt to obtain a list of all options in the selection by reading the child labels (in the JAB tree). For drop-down lists you will almost certainly need to set the 'Expand first' parameter to 'True' because the child elements aren't exposed until the list drops down. Also set the 'Collapse after' parameter to 'True' to close the list afterwards. The 'Get list of options by selecting' parameter should also be set to 'False' or this option will be ignored (as you can't get the list via both methods). If set to 'False' then the 'Get list of options by selecting' parameter should be set to 'True' otherwise the list of options will not be read.
Expand first	ExpandFirst		boolean	If set to 'true' (the default) then the action will attempt to expand the list before searching for the list item elements. This is useful for dynamic lists as the other list item elements may not be created until the list is expanded. If set to 'false' then the list will not be expanded.
Collapse after	CollapseAfter		boolean	If set to true (the default) then the list will be collapsed after executing the search. If set to false then the list will not be collapsed.
Seconds between expand and collapse	SecondsBetweenExpandCollapse		double	The number of seconds to wait between the expand and collapse actions, if these are set to 'True'. By default, this is 0.05 (20 milliseconds).
Force even if in correct state	ForceEvenIfInCorrectState		boolean	If set to 'True' then the element will be selected even if it is already selected. If set to 'False' (the default) then the IA-Connect Agent will do nothing if the list element is already selected.
Recover on failure	RecoverOnFailure		boolean	If set to 'True' then the originally selected list items will be recovered if the new selection fails. For example, if item 3 was selected and you try selecting item 90 (which doesn't exist) then item 3 will be re-selected. If set to 'False' then the originally selected list items will not be recovered.

Match index is ascending	MatchIndexAscending		boolean	If multiple elements match the search, should 'Match index' match from the top of the sorted list (true) or from the bottom of the sorted list (false).
Seconds to wait	SecondsToWait	True	double	The maximum number of seconds to wait for the element to exist.
Include child processes	IncludeChildProcesses		boolean	If set to true and a 'Search process Id' is specified, child processes of that process Id are included in the search. This is common for Java since a launcher EXE often then runs a child 'Java(w).exe' process. If set to false then only a process matching the exact 'Search process Id' will be returned.
Raise exception if element not found	RaiseExceptionIfElementNotFound		boolean	Should IA-Connect raise an exception if the Java element does not exist after the wait period?
Workflow	Workflow	True	string	Add the following expression here: workflow()

Returns

Name	Path	Type	Description
Element exists	ElementExists	boolean	Returns true if the element exists or false if not.
Element JAB handle	ElementJABHandle	integer	If the search element was found, this will hold a numeric element handle which can be used in further actions to act as a 'parent' handle for further searches (i.e. to locate elements relative to this handle).
Element name	ElementName	string	The Java name of the located element.
Element description	ElementDescription	string	The Java description of the located element (if there is one).
Element role	ElementRole	string	The Java role (e.g. frame or panel) of the located element (if there is one).

Wait for Java desktop element to not exist

Operation ID:: JABWaitForDesktopElementToNotExist

Waits for a Java desktop element (typically a window) to no longer exist.

Parameters

Name	Key	Required	Type	Description
Search UIA element name	SearchUIAElementName		string	The optional UIA element name to search for (starting from the parent window handle). This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search UIA element class name	SearchUIAElementClassName		string	The optional UIA element class name to search for (starting from the parent window handle). This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search UIA element localized control type	SearchUIAElementLocalizedControlType		string	The optional UIA element localized control type to search for (starting from the parent window handle). This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search process Id	SearchProcessID		integer	The process ID of the running process. This can be retrieved as an output from the "Run Process" action.
Search child elements	SearchChildElements		boolean	If set to true then the whole tree below the parent window handle will be searched. This is more thorough but can take longer. If set to false, only elements directly below the parent window handle in the tree will be searched.
Match index	MatchIndex		integer	If multiple elements match the search, which element (starting at 1) should be matched. Can be used in conjunction with 'Sort by column' to choose the sort order for matching.
Search filter	SearchFilter		string	An optional advanced filter to further restrict the search using conditional operators and any element field. Example 1: [Width] < 200. Example 2: [Name] like 'Document' AND [Role] like 'Label'. See the documentation for more examples.
Sort by column name	SortByColumn		string	If multiple elements match the search, this allows you to specify which element property to sort by. This will be used in conjunction with 'Match index' to pick the required element. For example: If 'Sort by column name' is [TopEdge] and 'Match index' is 1 then the matching element nearest the top of the screen will be matched.
Match index is ascending	MatchIndexAscending		boolean	If multiple elements match the search, should 'Match index' match from the top of the sorted list (true) or from the bottom of the sorted list (false).
Seconds to wait	SecondsToWait	True	double	The maximum number of seconds to wait for the element to not exist.
Include child processes	IncludeChildProcesses		boolean	If set to true and a 'Search process Id' is specified, child processes of that process Id are included in the search. This is common for Java since a launcher EXE often then runs a child 'Java(w).exe' process. If set to false then only a process matching the exact 'Search process Id' will be returned.
Raise exception if element still exists	RaiseExceptionIfElementStillExists		boolean	Should IA-Connect raise an exception if the Java element still exists after the wait period?
Workflow	Workflow	True	string	Add the following expression here: workflow()

Returns

Name	Path	Type	Description
Element exists before wait	ElementExistsBeforeWait	boolean	Returns true if the element existed before waiting or false if not.
Element exists after wait	ElementExistsAfterWait	boolean	Returns true if the element existed after waiting or false if not.

Wait for Java element

Operation ID:: JABWaitForElement

Waits for a Java element (typically an individual element within a window such as a button or a text input area) to exist.

Parameters

Name	Key	Required	Type	Description
Parent element JAB handle	SearchParentElementJABHandle	True	integer	The Java element handle which is a parent of the element you are searching for. This could be a window you located earlier using 'Wait for Java desktop element'.
Search Java element name	SearchElementJABName		string	The optional Java name of the element to search for. This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search Java element description	SearchElementJABDescription		string	The optional Java element description of the element to search for. This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search Java element role	SearchElementJABRole		string	The optional Java element role of the element to search for. This can be discovered via Inspection.
Search child elements	SearchSubTree		boolean	If set to true then the whole tree below the parent window handle will be searched. This is more thorough but can take longer. If set to false, only elements directly below the parent window handle in the tree will be searched.
Maximum relative depth	MaxRelativeDepth		integer	The maximum relative depth to search from the parent element for child elements. Direct child elements will have a depth value of 0.
Match index	MatchIndex		integer	If multiple elements match the search, which element (starting at 1) should be matched. Can be used in conjunction with 'Sort by column' to choose the sort order for matching.
Search filter	SearchFilter		string	An optional advanced filter to further restrict the search using conditional operators and any element field. Example 1: [Width] < 200. Example 2: [Name] like 'Document' AND [Role] like 'Label'. See the documentation for more examples.
Sort by column name	SortByColumn		string	If multiple elements match the search, this allows you to specify which element property to sort by. This will be used in conjunction with 'Match index' to pick the required element. For example: If 'Sort by column name' is [TopEdge] and 'Match index' is 1 then the matching element nearest the top of the screen will be matched.
Match index is ascending	MatchIndexAscending		boolean	If multiple elements match the search, should 'Match index' match from the top of the sorted list (true) or from the bottom of the sorted list (false).

Element roles not to traverse	ElementRolesNotToTraverse		string	A comma separated list of roles to not traverse (step into) when searching. The search will still check if the element matches the search criteria however it will not search any child elements. This parameter can be used to optimise element searching. This is only used if the 'Search child elements' input parameter is set to 'True'.
Maximum elements to search	MaximumElementsToSearch		integer	The maximum number of elements to search when looking for the target element, restricting the search to only check the first N number of elements found in the Java tree.
