# Automation Suite 2023.10.0 > 2023.10.0 release notes for Automation Suite. **Release date: November 3, 2023** ## Release highlights ### Side-by-side and in-place Automation Suite upgrade options You can now perform a side-by-side upgrade of Automation Suite using parallel clusters. This method allows you to switch traffic from the old to the new Automation Suite cluster. One of the benefits of this approach is that your current environment is not impacted by the upgrade operation in any way. In addition to that, we have considerably reduced the complexity of the in-place upgrade mechanism. For details, see [Performing a side-by-side upgrade](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/installation-guide/performing-a-side-by-side-upgrade) and [Performing an in-cluster upgrade](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/installation-guide/performing-an-in-place-upgrade). ### Streamlined installation experience for Automation Suite on Linux We have revamped our installation experience to ensure that all installation modes share similar steps and leverage the same commands. These improvements are aimed at creating a more consistent and seamless installation experience for all users. For details, see [Manual: Preparing the installation](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/installation-guide/preparing-the-installation) and [Manual: Installing Automation Suite](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/installation-guide/manual-installing-automation-suite). ### Migration from Automation Suite on Linux to Automation Suite on EKS/AKS If you are already using Automation Suite on Linux, but you now think that Automation Suite on EKS/AKS would better cater to your needs, we have good news for you. Migrating to a new installation of Automation Suite on EKS/AKS is now possible. Note that currently you cannot migrate from Automation Suite embedded to an existing installation of Automation Suite on EKS/AKS. For details on the requirements, required data migration operations, and step-by-step instructions, see [Migrating from Automation Suite on Linux to Automation Suite on EKS/AKS](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/installation-guide-eks-aks/migrating-from-automation-suite-on-linux-to-automation-suite-on-eksaks). ### Automation Suite on EKS/AKS: offline installation We are happy to announce that you can install Automation Suite on EKS/AKS in offline environments. That means that you can completely isolate your setup, and no internet access is needed to perform the installation. While most of the installation flow is the same as the one for online deployments, there is one additional requirement that you must meet to carry out an offline installation. You need an OCI-compliant registry to store all the container images and binaries of the UiPath products. For detailed installation instructions, see [Installing Automation Suite on EKS/AKS](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/installation-guide-eks-aks/installing-automation-suite-on-eksaks). For details on the deployment types and architecture, see [Deployment scenarios](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/installation-guide-eks-aks/deployment-scenarios). ### uipathctl unification for Automation Suite on Linux As part of an initiative to unify our CLI tools, we are introducing `uipathctl`. Currently, the tool helps you diagnose and troubleshoot issues affecting your Automation Suite installation, perform a side-by-side upgrade, migrate from Automation Suite on Linux to Automation Suite on EKS/AKS, and migrate to an external OCI-compliant registry. ### Orchestrator roles and permissions enhancements Some changes have been implemented to the roles and permissions. The **Automation User** folder role and the **Allow to be Automation User** tenant role can no longer publish processes, and, instead, two new sets of roles have been added: * **Automation Publisher** and **Allow to be Automation Publisher** enable you to publish processes. * **Automation Developer** and **Allow to be Automation Developer** enable you to create automations. ### Classic folders removal in Orchestrator Classic folders and all their associated objects are now removed. If you are planning on upgrading to this version, make sure to **migrate** any existing classic folders to modern folders.See the [Classic folders removal](https://docs.uipath.com/overview/other/latest/overview/classic-folders-removal) page for details on the steps leading up to this change. ### Recording failed queue transactions Processes that do not succeed because of failed queue transactions can now be [recorded](https://docs.uipath.com/orchestrator/standalone/2023.10/user-guide/about-recording#viewing-a-job-recording) for debugging purposes. This option, named **Record and store failed queue transactions**, is enabled at the process level, from the **Video** section of the **Job recording** setting. ### New unattended robot setup in Orchestrator You can now easily and seamlessly [configure](https://docs.uipath.com/orchestrator/standalone/2023.10/user-guide/unattended-robot-setup) everything you need for running a successful unattended automation. Simply use the new **Unattended Robot** setup option, which is available in the **Create new** menu of the Orchestrator toolbar. #### Override test results in Test Manager Enhance test accuracy by [overriding existent test results](https://docs.uipath.com/test-suite/automation-suite/2023.10/user-guide/test-manager-2023-10#override-test-results). You can now correct test case outcomes when automated executions don't reflect the actual behavior of the application. #### Extended Trigger-based Attended Automation With LTS 2023.4 we released the Trigger-based framework, a new way to build Attended Automations, with event-driven architecture and support for native events monitoring. Version 2023.10 is extending the native events support through the Application Event Trigger activity for applications built on UI Automation framework (such as Microsoft Office applications: Excel, Word, Access). To help users identify the events triggered by certain UI elements actions, we are introducing Event Inspection Tool. Integrated with UI Explorer, this tool helps developers understand the type of native events triggered or exposed by various UI elements when the user interacts with them. #### Bi-directional communication between Apps and attended automations Apps responds instantly to user input. To make this happen, build your workflow using two new **UiPath Studio activities** - **App Request Trigger** and **Handle Apps Request** - and the new UiPath Apps rule - **Trigger Workflow**. #### Unique record values and bulk addition of records in Data Service Introducing the **Unique value only** feature for [Data Service](https://docs.uipath.com/data-service/automation-suite/2023.10/release-notes/release-notes-2023-10-0#unique-record-values): Ensure the uniqueness of all text and number records in a field, eliminating the need for complex identification methods of duplicates. To spot uniquely constrained fields within an entity, refer to the **Is Unique** column. Instantly add records using the **Import data** feature. Just create a CSV file mirroring the target entity structure, ensuring columns match field names and data types. Import the file to witness your entity grow. #### New inline editor for Process Mining With the new inline editor, you can edit the [data transformations](https://docs.uipath.com/process-mining/automation-suite/2023.10/user-guide/data-transformations) of your app directly in the browser. This means you do no longer have to export and import your transformations. Once you are done editing, you can run your customized transformations from the inline transformations editor. #### One Click Classification and Extraction With the One Click Classification feature, you can now easily train document classifiers straight from the Document Understanding interface, while the One Click Extraction feature, allows you to easily train document extractors. ## Release notes catalog The following table consolidates bundled product versions for version 2023.10.0 across the available Automation Suite flavors: Automation Suite on Linux and Automation Suite on EKS/AKS. **Legend:** ✅ New: This Automation Suite version includes a new product version.
