> January 2026 release notes for Orchestrator in Automation Cloud.

## January 27, 2026

### Traces tab for event triggers

You can now use the **Traces** tab for event triggers to troubleshoot trigger execution. The Traces tab provides visibility into polling executions and webhook events. You can review how events are retrieved and evaluated against trigger filter criteria, helping you troubleshoot event detection and trigger behavior.

For more information, check the [Trigger details](https://docs.uipath.com/orchestrator/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/trigger-details) page.

### Bug fixes

:::note
**Erratum - added January 28, 2026:** added bug fix entry.
:::

We fixed an issue in the BeyondTrust integration that generated URLs double slashes. This ensures cleaner URL construction and prevents potential issues with downstream requests and telemetry.

### QueueItem events enhancements

QueueItem events, such as `QueueItem.added`, now include additional fields to improve retry tracking and item correlation:

* `UniqueKey`: the unique key of the queue item.
* `AncestorUniqueKey`: the unique key of the item being automatically retried.
* `ManualAncestorId`: the ID of the item being manually retried.
* `ManualAncestorUniqueKey`: the unique key of the item being manually retried.
* `ManualRetryNumber`: the number of times the item has been manually retried.

### Automation Cloud Robots and Elastic Robot Orchestration

You can now enable or disable UiPath-managed Robot updates from **Pool Configuration**.

By default, UiPath automatically updates Robot services and browser extensions. If disabled, Robot services and browser extensions are not installed or updated automatically and must be managed manually.

### Folder delete button update

We renamed the **Remove** button to **Delete** when deleting a folder, improving clarity and consistency in the user interface.

### Warning on folder delete

When deleting a folder, a warning message is now displayed that any automations using resources from that folder may no longer work as expected.

This applies to all folder types, including Solution folders, and regardless of where the deletion is initiated.

### Improved error message for trigger logs

We updated the messaging associated with the `DisabledDueToConsecutiveFailures` error code.

Trigger logs and audit messages now display clear and consistent information when a trigger is disabled due to repeated failures.

### Improved Jobs sidepanel design

We redesigned the **Jobs** sidepanel to provide a cleaner, more focused experience when viewing and managing job details. This update improves layout consistency, reduces clutter, and makes accessing job information easier.

**Key improvements:**

* Reorganized tabs with **Details** as the primary route
* **Resume Conditions / Triggers** now in **Details** tab as a collapsible accordion
* **Graph** repositioned to header, now resizable with automatic height adjustment
* Simplified header with streamlined action menu and **Live streaming** button access
* **Attachments** now displayed as chips instead of a grid for easier scanning

#### Attachments improvements

* The Attachments section is displayed within a collapsible card, allowing you to hide or reveal attachments as needed.

#### Details tab structure and content

The **Details** tab is now organized into clear, well-defined sections to improve readability and navigation:

* Job information:
  + Displays job details related to pending execution, including the reasons why a job is waiting or blocked. This section is displayed only for jobs with pending reasons available.
  + Pending reasons are now displayed when applicable, providing better visibility into why a job is waiting or blocked.
  + When collapsed, the section header displays the number of pending reasons, providing quick visibility without expanding the section.
* Raw message:

  + This section is displayed as a collapsible card.

  + This section is expanded to ensure critical runtime data remains visible.
* Execution environment:
  + **Identity** is displayed first for quicker access.
  + **Robot size** has been renamed to **Machine size** to align with terminology used in process configuration.
  + This section is not collapsible, ensuring environment details are always visible.
* Additional information:
  + Contains supplementary job metadata.
  + This section is collapsible and provides a summary view when collapsed, allowing you to quickly scan key information without expanding the section.

#### Arguments improvements

* Arguments are now displayed even when the job has no inputs or outputs, ensuring a consistent layout.

#### Recordings updates

#### Additional enhancements

Relative dates (for example, “2 days ago”) are now displayed with the absolute date shown in a tooltip available on mouse hover, improving readability while preserving precision.

### Queue triggers high-load scenarios

When a large number of queue items are added in a short time, the process start can be delayed. A recheck mechanism ensures the process is triggered once resources become available.
