Adding an External Application

To register an external application so that it can access your UiPath resources using OAuth:

  1. Log in to the tenant as an Administrator.
  2. Go to Tenant > Manage access > Assign roles and click Manage Accounts & Groups.

    The tenant-level opens.

  3. Along the left, select External Applications.

    The External Applications page opens, listing all the existing external applications registered for the current tenant:



  4. Above the table, on the right, click Add Application.
  5. Fill in the Application Name field.
  6. Select an option for Application Type.

    If you select Confidential application, you receive an app secret at the end, so make sure your application can store it securely. If it can't, select Non-confidential application.

  7. Under Resources, click Add Scopes.

    The Edit Resource panel opens on the right, where you can select the resources to which the application should have access.

  8. From the Resource drop-down list, select the UiPath API that the application can use.
    Note: You can only add scope for one resource at a time. If you want to allow access to multiple resources, repeat this process to add scope for each resource.
  9. On the User Scope(s) tab, select the check boxes for the logical API permissions that you want to grant, as needed.

    Granting permissions under user scope means that the external application can access those resources within a user context and a user with the appropriate permissions must be logged in.

  10. If this is a confidential application, you can switch to the Application Scope(s) tab to also grant application-level permissions for the selected resource, as needed.

    With permissions under application scope, the external application has access to application-wide data for the selected scopes without the need for user interaction.

    Non-confidential applications cannot access application scope.

  11. Click Save.

    The panel closes and the selected resource and scopes are added to the Resources table in the form.

  12. If the external application can accept it, you can add a URL in the Redirect URL field and the authorization response is sent there. The application can then use it to access UiPath resources.
  13. Click Add to create the registration.

    A confirmation message opens. For confidential applications, the confirmation message includes the app secret that the registered external application can use to request authorization. Make sure you save it in a secure location because you cannot see it again.
