Update on artifact download links
We have removed the download links for the 2023.4.x artifacts from the Automation Suite on EKS/AKS Installation Guide. We strongly advise upgrading to Automation Suite on EKS/AKS 2023.10 for enhanced performance and functionality. Should you require the 2023.4.x artifacts due to unique circumstances, please reach out to the UiPath® Support team.
Support for migrating standalone Insights to Automation Suite
We are excited to announce that you can now migrate your standalone Insights to Automation Suite. This migration allows you to enjoy all the benefits associated with deploying multiple UiPath on-premises products in a unified, single location. For more details, see Full migration.
Simplified migration to Automation Suite
Erratum - added June 3, 2024: We have made multiple improvements to the migration tool, in an attempt to streamline the process of migrating from a standalone product to Automation Suite.
One notable enhancement to highlight is the migration tool's ability to automatically create a tenant for each organization. This means that you no longer need to manually perform this operation.
If, however, you have already started to manually perform this step when migrating to Automation Suite, the migration tool will ignore it and create new tenant-organization pairs. Note that the format of the automatically generated tenant name is tenant_xxxxxxxx, where xxxxxxxx signifies the first eight characters of the Automation Suite organization ID.
Aside from this, you no longer need to provide the tenant ID when merging the organizations.
Another significant change is the updated parameters in the UiPath.OrganizationMigrationApp tool:
- We have repurposed the following existing parameters:
- The
sparameter previously required the Identity database connection of the standalone product. Now, it requires you to provide the list of organization IDs of the standalone product. - The
dparameter previously required the Identity database connection of Automation Suite. Now, it requires you to provide the list of organization IDs of Automation Suite.
- The
- We have introduced the following new parameters:
- The
iparameter requires the Identity database connection of the standalone product. - The
jparameter requires the Identity database connection of Automation Suite. - The
oparameter requires the Orchestrator database connection of the standalone product. - The
pparameter requires the URL of Automation Suite. - The
cthis parameter requires the OMS S2S client secret.

Updated Kubernetes version support
We have added support for Kubernetes 1.29 and removed support for Kubernetes 1.26. We recommend that you check the Compatibility matrix and make sure you upgrade to a supported version, if needed.
Bug fixes
An upgrade known issue affecting AKS caused Automation Suite to fail. The issue no longer occurs.
Known issues
Erratum - added October 17, 2024
In a proxy environment, if the proxy server uses the same port as the TCP port of any other service in the Istio service mesh, such as port 8080, pods cannot communicate with the FQDN. The issue causes the following error:
System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: The proxy tunnel request to proxy 'http://<proxyFQDN>:8080/' failed with status code '404'.
System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: The proxy tunnel request to proxy 'http://<proxyFQDN>:8080/' failed with status code '404'.
To fix the issue, see Automation Suite on EKS/AKS troubleshooting.
Erratum - added August 14, 2024
For AI Center and Task Mining, the ListBucket API prerequisite check fails when using an external objectstore. However, AI Center and Task Mining do not use the ListBucket API permission. We removed the unnecessary check in Automation Suite 2023.4.8.
Erratum - added June 25, 2024
