A new cloud scale unit in the European Union with delayed deployments

Automation Cloud™ is available in a new cloud scale unit in the European Union with delayed deployments.

To ensure GxP regulatory compliance in life sciences, UiPath® offers Advanced Platform SKU customers the option of a delayed update scale unit for their Automation Cloud setup. Typically, customers utilize a standard scale unit for testing (in any of the Automation Cloud standard regions), alongside a second organization on a delayed update scale unit for production. Automation Cloud is available to customers in a delayed update scale unit accessible in the United States, and a second one in the European Union was made available now to enterprise customers.

Release schedule: Each Automation Cloud release reaches delayed update scale units at least 14 days after standard scale units, enabling our customers to complete an evaluation before the update is released in the delayed scale unit.

Further details regarding delayed update scale unit in the United States are available in the Delayed Update Organizations section.

Support for API keys ending in March 2025

In our continual efforts to maintain the highest levels of security and user experience, we have decided to phase out API Keys authentication in March 2025.

We recommend using External Applications and Personal Access Tokens (PATs) as the primary method of authentication.

Expiry of API tokens

Current API Tokens will undergo no immediate changes – they will be supported until March 2025. Please note that after this date, API Keys will be removed from our authentication method offerings.

Migration to new authentication methods

Users currently using API Keys are strongly encouraged to transition to using External Applications or PATs as soon as possible. This shift not only aligns with best practices for OAuth 2.0 but also ensures a much securer and manageable authentication process.

Check out Migrating from API Keys to PATs for step-by-step instructions on the switch.
