RPA - Order Robot - Robocorp Certificate II

A process automation robot to complete the Robocorp course "Certificate level II: Build a robot" assignment.
The robot automates the process of ordering several robots via the RobotSpareBin Industries Inc. website and can be used as an assistant, which asks for the CSV file URL.

The automated process

• Open the order page in a web browser
• Request the order file URL from the user using an input dialog
• Download the CSV order file
• Read in the orders information from the CSV file
• For each order in the file:
  • Close modal on order page
  • Fill the form on the website with the order data
  • Preview the soon orderd robot and take ascreenshot of the robot image
  • Submit the order (this step uses the retry logic to avoid xxx occasional errors on submit)
  • Create a receipt PDF with the robot preview image embedded
  • Trigger ordering of a new robot
• Create a ZIP file of all receipts and store it in the output directory
• Close the browser
• Remove all receipts and screenshot from output directory
