# uip rpa get-object-repository

> Syntax and options for `uip rpa get-object-repository`, which returns the current project's own Object Repository as a JSON tree.

`uip rpa get-object-repository` returns the current project's own Object Repository — the applications, screens, and elements it defines — as a JSON tree. It excludes entries inherited from referenced libraries; use [`uip rpa get-library-object-repository`](./uip-rpa-get-library-object-repository.md) to read those separately.

The verb runs inside a hosted project context on both backends (Studio's project process and Helm's project assembly load context), so a project must be open before it can be called.

## Synopsis

```
uip rpa get-object-repository
```

## Options

This verb takes no per-command options. Use the parent-level options shared by every `uip rpa` verb — see [RPA tool overview](./uip-rpa.md).

## Examples

```bash
# Read the current project's Object Repository
uip rpa get-object-repository
```

## Data shape (--output json)

The command returns the Object Repository tree exactly as `objectRepository.getProjectObjects()` produces it — apps, then screens, then elements, nested to match the repository's own structure. Shape is otherwise unspecified and may evolve with the Object Repository feature itself; inspect a real project's output rather than relying on a fixed schema.

On failure (for example, no project is open), the command reports:

```json
{
  "success": false,
  "errorMessage": "<reason>"
}
```
