Release notes

Improved JSON JIT deserialization for property names to allow unsupported characters by replacing them with their hex representations.

In version 1.20.0 of UiPath.WebAPI.Activities package, the HTTP Request activity incorrectly assumed UTF-8 encoding, leading to the corruption of downloaded files.

With the new JSON Sample property, the Deserialize JSON activity now converts your sample output structure into a similarly structured object, which you can use during design time.

We’ve fixed an issue that was causing spikes in memory while downloading large files using the HTTP Request activity.

Starting with the v1.18.0 release, the WebAPI package uses AvalonEdit version 6.1.3.50.

Erratum 25 October 2023: added the bug fix.

To decrease the package size for runtime, especially for cross-platform projects, the UiPath.WebAPI.Activities package was split into design-time package and runtime packages, as follows:

The user interface of the activities in the WebAPI package is now available in Traditional Chinese.

The layout of the HTTP Request activity's Import dialog box has been improved.

The following activities have been updated with a new design and are now available in Cross-platform projects:

The HTTP Request activity now offers the possibility to verify SSL certificates when sending a request. Verification failures results in the request being aborted.

Fixed an issue where an HTTP Request would be sent twice when a value was provided for the ResourcePath property

HTTP Request works properly only with RestSharp package version 106.11.2 or lower. It returns an error when RestSharp version 106.11.4 or higher is installed.

This activity package has now been upgraded and is fully compatible with the C# Studio feature. For more information about C# support, refer to About Automation Projects.

The amount of packages you can find on UiPath activity feeds is humongous, and it grows with each passing day. This can prove to be a nuisance when searching for a package with a more common name, for example. We felt your pain and decided to do something about this. From now on, all UiPath official activity packages can be easily filtered in the Package Manager so you’ll be able to reach your favorite package in no time.

Updated some internal dependencies to maintain functionality with the new version of UiPath Studio.

We have further increased language support by adding Turkish, Portuguese (Portugal), Spanish (Latin America), and Spanish (Spain) to the list of languages present in the UiPath Platform.

Three new languages, German, South Korean, and Portuguese are available for the UiPath.WebAPI.Activities package.

We want to reach out to the entire world and make automation a language everyone can speak. So, starting with this release, the entire platform is available in Chinese.

The HTTP Request and Soap Request activities have been improved, and are now able to retrieve the headers of the requests they perform.

This new year brings two more languages in the entire UiPath Platform - French and Russian. Since we layed down the foundations of localization in our previous release, we are continuing our efforts in bringing you a more immersive experience and lowering the language barrier bit by bit.

The moment is finally here - the entire UiPath Platform has been localized, so that you can have a truly immersive experience, from install to design and execution. Now, besides English, you can access everything, including our online documentation, in Japanese.
