UiPath CLI user guide

Última atualização 7 de mai de 2026

Concepts overview

The Concepts section explains how UiPath CLI is organized and the four mental models you need before building automations on top of it. Read these once; everything else in the documentation assumes them.

If you are looking to install or run your first command, jump to Get started. The Concepts pages cover the model behind the CLI, not the day-to-day operating manual.

The four pages

PáginaWhat it coversRead it when
How UiPath CLI is organizedHost + tools, lazy loading, command-resolution flow, output envelope, exit codes. The single-page mental model.First — every other concept builds on this.
Tools (plugins)Auto-install whitelist, version pinning, lifecycle (install / update / uninstall), where tools live on disk.When uip reports "unknown command" or you want strict CI reproducibility.
HabilidadesThe parallel extension system that teaches AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, …) how to drive uip. Six supported agents.When you want an agent to build automations for you.
Sessions and credentialsThe .uipath/.auth file, walk-up resolution, env-var auth, refresh behaviour.When uip can't find your session, or you need per-project credentials.

For a developer new to the CLI:

  1. How UiPath CLI is organized — sets the host-vs-tool split.
  2. Sessions and credentials — explains why uip login matters and how the file is found.
  3. Tools (plugins) — explains why some commands are missing and how to add them.
  4. Skills — only if you plan to use AI coding agents; skip otherwise.

For someone migrating from uipcli (.NET legacy):

  1. How UiPath CLI is organized — the new architecture is fundamentally different.
  2. Tools (plugins) — there is no monolithic executable any more.
  3. Sessions and credentials — auth model has changed (no implicit env-var reading; sessions persisted to disk).
  4. Then jump straight to Migration.
