Working in your IDE

Push a locally built coded app into Studio Web with the UiPath CLI, and pull the last pushed source back into a local folder when you need to sync.

Because a coded app's source code is authored locally, most of your work happens in your own IDE. The UiPath CLI bridges that local workflow with the Studio Web project via two commands:

• uip codedapp push — upload your locally built app into the Studio Web project.
• uip codedapp pull — fetch the last pushed source from the Studio Web project into a local folder.

You do not need to pull before your first push. If you already have a local project ready, push it directly. If no project ID is provided, push interactively prompts to create a new coded app project in Studio Web and saves the resulting UIPATH_PROJECT_ID to .env for later pushes.

Prérequis

• Node.js 20.x or newer.
• The UiPath CLI. Install it globally with npm install -g @uipath/cli.
• Authenticate against the target UiPath org: uip login. This creates the .env file the CLI reads for UIPATH_ORG_ID, UIPATH_TENANT_ID, and UIPATH_ACCESS_TOKEN.
• A coded app project already initialized inside a solution in Studio Web (or let push create one interactively). See Initializing a coded app project.

Pushing your locally built app

From the project root, after producing the build output (for example, npm run build), run:

uip codedapp push --project-id <project-id>

The command uploads the build output directory (defaults to dist) to the Studio Web project.

If UIPATH_PROJECT_ID is set in .env — either from a previous auto-create or manually — you can omit the flag:

uip codedapp push

Options

Option	Description	Default
--project-id <id>	Studio Web project ID.	Read from UIPATH_PROJECT_ID in .env. Auto-created interactively if missing.
--build-dir <dir>	Build output directory to upload.	dist
--ignore-resources	Skip importing resources referenced by the app.	false
--verbose	Afficher les journaux de progression détaillés.	false

On push, Studio Web:

• Stores every file in the pushed path and shows it in read-only mode under the project's Source view.
• Reads bindings_v2.json, if present at the root of the pushed content, and registers each declared resource under the project's Resources panel.

Pulling the last pushed source

Use pull when you need to bring the last pushed source back into a local folder — for example, after a teammate pushed changes, or to reset a local working copy:

uip codedapp pull --project-id <project-id> --target-dir ./my-coded-app

Options

Option	Description	Default
--project-id <id>	Studio Web project ID.	Read from UIPATH_PROJECT_ID in .env.
--target-dir <dir>	Local directory to write pulled files to.	Current directory.
--overwrite	Overwrite existing files without prompting.	false
--verbose	Afficher les journaux de progression détaillés.	false

The command writes the last pushed content into the target folder, exactly as it was pushed.

Remarque :

uip codedapp pull retrieves the files that were pushed, not any locally cached dependencies or build tooling. Reinstall dependencies (for example, npm install) after pulling before running the app.

Working with a teammate on the same project

Coded app projects do not have a built-in merge mechanism. If two developers push to the same project in parallel, the second push overwrites the first. To coordinate safely:

• Treat Git as the source of truth for source code, not the Studio Web project.
• Push to Studio Web from a known Git commit, ideally as part of a controlled release flow.
• Use uip codedapp pull to inspect what is pushed in Studio Web before overwriting it.
