Summary

Installing PAD is straightforward, just like installing any other Microsoft tool. Once you have signed up for a Microsoft account, you can log in to the program and start creating your UI flows right away.

It is recommended to try things out and use the tool even to automate simple tasks. This will make you more familiar with the program, as I explained in this chapter. The recorder can save you a lot of work and it can be used for new or existing flows. Especially if web scraping is a task, this tool can be very handy.

In the next chapter, we will continue our journey and look at the editing and debugging capabilities of PAD.
