Additional Notes
What data is captured in the UIA attributes?

UIA's property providers support both Win32 and .NET programs. Every time the user interacts with an application and a UIA enabled screen element, the respective attribute will be stored. For more, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_UI_Automation

Which applications support UIA attributes? For which applications can Task Mining Capture UIA attribute?

We can capture UIAA for any application that exposes UIA attributes. Typically applications based on both Win32 and .NET programs do expose those attributes, i.e. Excel, Outlook, etc.
