New release cadence for cloud customers

We're launching a new cloud-first release vehicle for Studio, Robot, and Assistant that aims to deliver continuous updates with a faster release cadence.

The new UiPathStudioCloud.msi installer is available for users with an Enterprise License and can be downloaded from the Resource Center in UiPath Automation Cloud. You can access the Resource Center by clicking the help button and selecting the Downloads menu option in UiPath Automation Cloud.

Key features

• Release cycle - Every two months initially, targeting every two weeks.
• Installer - UiPathStudioCloud.msi
• Updates - The latest Enterprise Edition MSI installer will be available in the Resource Center in UiPath Automation Cloud after each Enterprise release, ensuring you can always access the latest version.
• Support - Only the latest cloud version is supported.
• Content - The latest cloud version always contains the latest Studio features and fixes.

Benefits of using the latest version of Studio, Robot, and Assistant

• Access to the latest updates and innovative features developed by UiPath
• Reduced IT operations time and costs with Robot and Studio deployments
• Reduced risk of breaking existing automations
• Enhanced Robot, Assistant, Studio Web, and Studio interoperability
• Streamlined access to preview features, which reduces the need to manually opt in

Robot and Studio compatibility

Studio stores the minimum Robot version required to run a project, indicated by the Studio version used for editing or publishing a workflow. This ensures that the current project can only be executed by robots of the same version or higher.

Running a process on an older robot version will result in an error message.

Supported versions

While Robot aims to deliver the latest features to Enterprise customers in a cloud-like release cycle, the regular release cadence for the Community and Enterprise releases remains the same. This means that the Community version is released every two months, and the Enterprise LTS version is released once per year, following the same versioning.

Releases	Timelines
Community	Every two months
Enterprise	Every two months, one week after Community
Enterprise LTS	Once a year (October)

About the Robot documentation

To accommodate the new way of releasing Robot features, we have created two new documentation guides:

1. The Robot Release Notes guide outlines the changes included in each Robot Enterprise release.
2. The Robot user guide provides details on the latest additions to Robot.

These new guides complement our existing Robot documentation and are updated with every release cycle.

Bug fixes

• Sometimes, executing jobs would fail with the “Cannot access a closed pipe” or “Connection closed” exceptions. This behavior no longer occurs.

• On rare occasions, using the HTTP Request activity in a Legacy project caused the executor to crash unexpectedly with the error: "System.Exception: Could not retrieve the result of the job execution. This might be because a message was too large to process." The error appeared in Orchestrator for failed jobs.

• In coded workflows, an exception might occur when invoking a workflow multiple times in parallel. This was caused by the use of the RunWorkflowAsync method.
