Compatibility matrix

The compatibility matrix in our Overview guide displays how Robot interacts with the standalone, Automation Suite, and cloud instances of Orchestrator.

Robot & Standalone Orchestrator

available - Compatible

not available - Not compatible

Important:

Studio and Robot always need to have the same version when installed on the same machine. For example, if you have Studio 2022.4.x installed, Robot must be 2022.4.x as well. It is usually recommended to first upgrade your Orchestrator and then your Robots. In this scenario, the Robots have to be reconnected to Orchestrator after the update.
Automation projects created in Studio version 2021.10.6 and newer that have Windows and Cross-Platform compatibility cannot run on of robots older than 2021.10.6 because of the .NET version discrepancy.

Product Version	Orchestrator 2023.10.x	Orchestrator 2023.4.x	Orchestrator 2022.10.x	Orchestrator 2022.4.x	Orchestrator 2021.10.x	Orchestrator 2020.10.x
Robot 2024.10.x
Robot 2023.10.x						^{1, 2}
Robot 2023.4.x						^{1, 2}
Robot 2022.10.x						^{1, 2}
Robot 2022.4.x						^{1, 2}
Robot 2021.10.x						^{1, 2}
Robot 2020.10.x	^{1, 2}	^{1, 2}	^{1, 2}	^{1, 2}	^{1, 2}	^{1, 2}

You need Orchestrator and Robots 2021.10+ to execute Windows and cross-platform processes (.NET 5).
You need Orchestrator and Robots 2021.10+ to execute background processes without credentials.

Robot, Studio & Orchestrator in Automation Suite

The below matrix provides information about the interoperability between Automation Suite Orchestrator and Robot and Studio. Patches are implicitly supported in this matrix unless specifically mentioned otherwise.

Automation projects

Projects created with alpha or beta Studio versions might not be compatible with newer Studio builds, nor can they be executed by newer Robots.

Newer Robots can execute projects created with older versions of Studio. For example, a project created with Studio 2023.4 should work on a 2024.10 Robot or newer.

We do not support forward compatibility. Projects created with newer versions of Studio might not work with older Robots. For example, a project created in Studio 2024.10 might not work with a 2023.4 Robot.

The following table outlines how projects created or published in Studio work with Robot:
