Recording client overview
The Recorder client is a lightweight installation that is downloaded on the recording user's machine. It records and captures screenshots and metadata of the task as it is being completed. There is one unified recorder application for both Assisted and Unassisted Task Mining. For Task Mining, the screenshots and metadata create traces to be reviewed and merged to get a comprehensive view of the process. For Unassisted Task Mining, the AI model is applied to the data to create tasks candidates to be reviewed and analyzed for automation and process improvement opportunities.
Even though the recording client needs to be installed on every machine in order to record data for each interaction, the performance impact is low and all the locally stored data is deleted automatically once it's updated to the encrypted cloud space.
TaskMining.exe file enables you to install a user-mode of the Recorder. The installation path - %localappdata%\TaskMining and all other advanced options are already configured to help you get Task Mining up and running right away.
This package type natively supports all msiexec commands and is recommended for customers who need to deploy Task Mining to hundreds or thousands of machines. Refer to the official Microsoft documentation on Command-Line options for more information.
Companies where System Admins are assigned to distribute the application among the employees using the same machine.

The following browsers provide a higher fidelity recording when used by the end-users generating the data:
-
Edge
-
Mozilla Firefox
-
Chrome
-
Windows sessions in VDI environment need to be “isolated” (each user has an independent OS).
-
It is required that each user should have it's own user profile. This separates users and ensures that all traces are uploaded correctly.
-
-
VDI needs to be persistent (each user has a dedicated machine, configurations and applications are saved when the user logs off or restarts).
-
VDI needs to generate mouse and keyboard input on the OS level and persistent throughout Power On-Off Cycle.
- Windows user should have read/write access to his profile folder.
Known Limitations:
-
The capturing of virtual environments is not fully supported.
-
VM is being captured only with screenshots, without any metadata.
-
The concurrent VDI solutions are not supported.
For best results, it's recommended that all target applications be installed on the VDI where the Task Mining agent is installed.
