1. A method for combining business process management (BPM) and robotic process automation (RPA) into a unified BPM and RPA process, the method comprising:
receiving a BPM process flow, the BPM process flow comprising one or more BPM models for executing one or more BPM tasks;
receiving an RPA process flow, the RPA process flow comprising one or more RPA models for executing one or more RPA tasks;
receiving, from a user, a selection of the one or more RPA tasks;
linking, in response to the selection, the one or more RPA models for executing the one or more RPA tasks with the BPM process flow;
creating an application package associated with the unified BPM and RPA process, the application package comprising the one or more BPM models and the one or more RPA models; and
exporting the application package for deployment.
