Release Schedule:
For improved security of authentication, you can now create credential providers in IBM RPA to retrieve credentials from third-party vaults such HashiCorp and CyberArk. Third-party, or external, vaults allow you to easily update and rotate credentials, ensuring that your automation workflows remain secure and compliant. You can consolidate credential management across multiple systems and applications and reduce the risk of credential leaks. See Credential providers to set up your external providers in IBM RPA and Credentials to create your credentials using external providers.
This new command writes a list of bytes to a new or existing file. The command is compatible with Windows, Google Drive, One Drive and Dropbox. See writeAllBytes for more information.

These new commands join a family of loop commands that include the Repeat and Until commands, which start and implement a repetition structure that runs a block of code until a condition is met. See Do-While and End Do-While for more information.

This integration enhances operational efficiency and simplifies the administration of your automation and business process management solutions. See Integrating RPA OCP with watsonx Orchestrate for more information on this integration.
Upgrade from version 2.3.0 to version 3.0.0 of the RPA operator for better maintainability and sustainability and to ensure the stability of future releases. For better integration with Cloud Pak for Data and Cloud Pak for Business Automation products, the new 3.0.0 operator defines the block and file storageClass types in the IBM RPA custom resource (CR). See Upgrading IBM RPA operator to version 3.0.0 for more information.
