### Upcoming updates to outbound IP ranges

We are expanding our list of outbound IP ranges for Apps, with the new values coming into effect from December 26, 2025. To avoid disruptions, you must update your firewall configuration with the newly added values from the **Upcoming outbound IP ranges** before the specified date.

For the updated lists of outbound IP ranges, refer to [Apps outbound IP ranges](https://docs.uipath.com/apps/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/onprem#outbound-ips-to-add-to-the-allow-list).

**Erratum**: On October 8 it was announced that the effective date for the new outbound IP ranges for UiPath Apps was extended to January 12, 2026. For more information, go to the [October release notes](https://docs.uipath.com/apps/automation-cloud/latest/release-notes/october-2025#october-8%2C-2025).

**Erratum - October 15, 2025**: We have extended the effective date again, this time to January 26, 2026. For more details, refer to the [October 15, 2025](https://docs.uipath.com/test-manager/automation-cloud/latest/release-notes/october-2025#october-15%2C-2025) release notes.

### Deprecation of connections in VB Apps

We are deprecating the Connections feature in VB Apps, which was available only in Public Preview. We are consolidating [Apps in Studio Web](https://docs.uipath.com/studio-web/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/apps-in-studio-web), where Connections activities are fully supported going forward

As an alternative, you can choose either of the following options:

* Replace a connection with a process that calls the **Connections** activity
* Build the app in Sudio Web
