Data integration specialist Alteryx has introduced a new connector, allowing users to access and call UiPathRobotic Process Automation (RPA) processes within Alteryx Designer pipelines. Often, it should be integrated into these automated processes, but it may be prohibitively complex to do so through data pipeline tools.

While the reverse of this connector’s capabilities — allowing UiPath RPA processes to call Alteryx pipelines — was possible before, this data pipeline-to-RPA integration makes it possible to automate extraction and integration of data from applications, portals and Web apps that lack APIs, or from scanned documents, like invoices.

He estimated that there are data-driven processes where up to 80% of that workflow is driven by Alteryx and all the calculations and things that somebody needs to perform can be done in an automated, routine way in Alteryx.

But, according to Wooledge, the customer was able to use the combination of Alteryx and UiPath to get at and integrate that very data.
