Tareas

Tasks provide the building blocks for process execution. UiPath Platform™ capabilities are accessed via standard BPMN task types. The Implementation configuration defines how each task interacts with external systems or internal logic. Depending on the task type—Service, User, or Send—you can trigger automations, route work to agents, wait for connector events, or send messages to other systems. The available actions vary by task type but follow a consistent design: select an action, define inputs and outputs, and optionally update process variables.

In Maestro, the task type you select determines what the step does at runtime and which UiPath Platform components it calls. Some types run work inside Maestro, others orchestrate Robots, agents, API workflows, queues, or Business Rules. Use this table to pick the task type that matches your outcome and to see which platform capability it invokes.

The following actions are available and showcase what underlying part of the platform gets invoked: ​​

Tipo de tarea	Descripción	UiPath Platform component(s) involved
Ninguno	No action is triggered. Typically used as a placeholder or when a step does not need to perform any automation.	Ninguno

Iniciar y esperar al agente externo	Launches and waits for the result from an externally hosted agent (outside the UiPath ecosystem), often via HTTP or a messaging interface.	External agents via APIs
Start and wait for external workflow	Launches and waits for the result from an externally hosted workflow (outside the UiPath ecosystem), often via HTTP or a messaging interface.	External workflows via APIs
