Dev Dives: Explore UiPath Solutions Management for seamless packaging, deployment and maintenance
Witness firsthand the new UiPath Solutions Management and learn to transport, deploy, and maintain complex solutions with ease. Focus on automating more use cases instead of dealing with operations and maintenance.
As the automation landscape evolves, more use cases can be addressed. At the same time, powerful automations drag more complexity, making authoring, deploying, managing, and updating them more difficult to handle.
We’re excited to share what we’re actively working on the first set of platform capabilities around lifecycle management within the UiPath Platform, meant to help you in this endeavour!
The first wave of capabilities that is coming up includes, but it’s not limited to:
Packaging solutions: assemble and configure your solution components in a fully-fledged solution package that is self-contained & transportable between tenants and organizations.
Solutions deployment: click through the installation wizard to apply the deployment specific configurations for the solution. Based on this input and the information contained in the package, all solution components are automatically deployed.
Management capabilities for the solution packages and deployments within your organization, per tenant.

What is a solution?
You can view a Solution as the collection of “components”
built & configured on the UiPath Platform, that function
together to automate a business use case.
It can be as simple as a single process, or as complex as
something containing multiple processes, apps, assets,
queues, storage buckets, data service entities, ML Skills, etc.

"Solutions" today
Build Deploy Manage Update
• Author the workflows,
apps, ML projects, test
cases…
• Configure associated
resources: queues,
assets, connections,
entities...
• All across multiple
UI surfaces
• Create folder structure
and resources..
• Deploy the process /
processes..
• Deploy the rest of the
solution components
based on documentation.
• Configure machines
• Configure permissions..
• Manual, prone to error
• No overview of all
solution components
• No way to
ensure solution doesn't
break due to changes
done on components
• Change permissions
to maintain in sync
between folders, apps
and other components
• In place, based on
documented instructions.
• Deploy a new version on
parallel folders and
switch permissions.
• Again, manual process
