uip feedback

Syntax and options for `uip feedback send`, which files a bug report or improvement suggestion directly from the CLI.

uip feedback sends bug reports and improvement suggestions to the UiPath team without leaving the terminal. It has a single subcommand, send.

Synopsis

uip feedback send --type <bug|improvement> --title <text> (--description <text> | --description-file <path> | stdin) [--priority <priority>] [--email <email>] [--attachment <paths...>] [--slack-thread <url>]

All uip feedback verbs honor the global options (--output, --output-filter, --log-level, --log-file). Exit codes follow the standard contract.

uip feedback send

File a bug report or improvement suggestion. Provide the description body through exactly one of --description, --description-file, or piped stdin.

Options

Flag	Description
--type <type>	Required. bug or improvement.
--title <title>	Required. Issue title / summary.
--description <text>	Description or steps to reproduce. Single-line safe. Mutually exclusive with --description-file.
--description-file <path>	Read the description from a file. Use this for large, multi-line markdown bodies — required on Windows PowerShell, where inlining a multi-line --description value gets mangled by the shell. Mutually exclusive with --description.
--priority <priority>	critical, normal, or minor. Defaults to normal.
--email <email>	Contact email. Defaults to the email on the active login session, if any.
--attachment <paths...>	One or more files to attach (space-separated). Maximum 10 files, 10MB each; both limits are validated before the issue is created.
--slack-thread <url>	Link to a related Slack discussion, included in the ticket. Must be a valid http/https URL.

If none of --description, --description-file, or piped stdin supplies a body, the command fails with ValidationError. A description longer than roughly 32 KB is rejected client-side before anything is sent.

When stdout is a TTY, send shows an interactive review/edit prompt for the draft (including a chance to attach a Slack thread link) before submitting — pass all relevant flags in a CI context to avoid this prompt hanging the job (see Scripting patterns — suppressing interactive prompts).

Examples

uip feedback send \
  --type bug \
  --title "Crash on login" \
  --description "Happens every time with --interactive"

# Large multi-line body — required approach on Windows PowerShell
uip feedback send \
  --type bug \
  --title "[RPA] Crash on run" \
  --description-file ./feedback-body.md

# Non-interactive CI usage
uip feedback send \
  --type improvement \
  --title "Add --dry-run to uip or jobs start" \
  --description-file ./suggestion.md \
  --priority minor \
  --email [e-mail]

Data shape (--output json)

{
  "Code": "FeedbackSent",
  "Data": {
    "IssueKey": "UIP-12345",
    "IssueUrl": "https://uipath.atlassian.net/browse/UIP-12345",
    "Type": "bug",
    "Title": "Crash on login"
  }
}

When --slack-thread or --attachment was passed, the response also includes SlackThread and/or AttachmentsUploaded (formatted as "<uploaded>/<total>" — an attachment upload failure is non-fatal and doesn't block the issue from being filed).
