Abstract
Target-based schema identification and semantic mapping for robotic process automation (RPA) are disclosed. When looking at a source, such as a document, a web form, a user interface of a software application, a data file, etc., it is often difficult for software to determine which fields are labels and which are values associated with those labels. Since values have not yet been entered for various labels (e.g., first name, company, customer number, etc.), these labels are easier to detect than when the target also includes various values associated with the labels. A selection of an empty target may be received and target-based schema identification may be performed on the empty target, determining labels and a type of the target. Semantic matching may then be performed between a source and the target. These features may be performed at design time or runtime.
