v22.10
Release date: October 26, 2023
Release date: October 5, 2023
-
Fixed the broken Active Accessibility support for web pages containing IFrame elements or PDFs in Chrome and Edge version 117, which caused
<ctrl />
selectors to fail.Also added the option to pass extra command-line arguments to the browser opened using the Open Browser / Use Browser activities. This can be done by setting the appropriate environment variable using the Set Environment Variable activity:UIPATH_EXTRA_CMD_ARGS_CHROME
UIPATH_EXTRA_CMD_ARGS_EDGE
UIPATH_EXTRA_CMD_ARGS_FIREFOX
Release date: August 2, 2023
Release date: June 7, 2023
Release date: June 7, 2023
- Fixed a bug in CV Screen Scope that was causing the local server to keep returning OCR boxes even when UiPath Screen OCR was removed from the activity card or from Project Settings.
- Fixed a bug that caused selector generation to fail for Remote Desktop when the Remote Desktop Client was published as a RemoteApp.
- Fixed an issue which caused the Click Trigger activity to slow down the target application when opening a web page in Edge IE mode with Protected Mode turned off.
- For MV3 extensions, the browser loads the extension later, after the web
pages have loaded. To solve this kind of issues, we added the
UIPATH_OPEN_BROWSER_TIMEOUT_SECONDS
environment variable that allows configuring the Open Browser timeout. - When installing extensions using the Native Host Only method, the file for the self-hosted extension is also generated, so that it can be added to the ExtensionInstallForceList policy.
Release date: January 27, 2023
- The error prompt that indicates a version
mismatch between the UiPath Remote Runtime component and the
UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities package now contains a download link for
the correct
UiPathRemoteRuntime.msi
version. - Fixed a bug that was causing, in some cases, the CV Extract Table activity to stop before the first scroll event when extracting scrollable tables.

When you install browser extensions from UiPath Studio Home > Tools > UiPath Extensions, you can now select your preferred method. The available options in the drop-down menu for Chrome/Edge are Group Policy Offline, Group Policy Online, All Users, Current User, Native Host Only. The available options for Firefox are Group Policy Offline, Current User.
After the extension is installed, the installation method remains displayed in the disabled drop-down menu next to the Uninstall button, so that the extension will be uninstalled with the same method used for installation.
All the extension installation methods for Chrome and Edge are now available in the UiPathStudio.msi command line.
Support for Chrome/Edge running in App Mode is now available in the self-hosted MV2 browser extension.
class
attribute is now added to the default selector when it doesn't
contain spaces or letters after digits.
aria-label
and
aria-labelledby
are now available in the default selector.
The modern Use Application/Browser activity can now open browsers in remote environments.
ctrlid
attribute is now added to
the selector for the following controls: TextBox (input field), Button, RadioButton,
CheckBox, PictureBox, ListBox (select item), and ComboBox. The
automationid
attribute is also added to the selector for the same
controls when using the UI Automation framework.
A new Workflow Analyzer rule is now available, UI-PST-001, which enables you to specify the logging level you want to log your Robot logs at.
for
attribute
has been improved and now works much faster.
Mouse Scroll now features the Input Mode property, which enables you to select which input mode you want to use to send the scroll action to the application you are automating.
The Check Element Visibility property has changed its name to Visibility check to make its purpose clearer.
In the Selection Screen, changing existing variable names is no longer possible.
The Take Screenshot activity now supports region selection via the F3 hotkey when indicating on screen.
Support for apps using Qt has been implemented in the UI Automation package. For now, only widgets are supported. No QtQuick/QML support has been added at the moment.
A new option has been added to the Table Extraction wizard, when used with a Web browser, that enables you to select whether you want to create a new column with the text or URL of a selected element. The Extract URL toggle has been removed, as a result of this change.
Other table extraction improvements implemented.
Object Repository now offers an improved Indicate and editing experience when used with the Extract Table Data and For Each UI Element activities.
Arguments are now exposed as editable text in Edit screens for Browsers.
visibleInnerText
attribute is now available in the Selector
Attributes panel from UI Explorer.
title
attribute was removed from the list of available attributes
for WebCtrl.
When selecting Refresh with Delay in the Indicate wizard, scrolling resets the timer and the scrolling direction is saved in the activity. Also, there are three new properties for activities impacted by this change: ScrollingDirection, NumberofScrolls, and DelayScreenshotAfterScroll, which enable you to configure this feature.
CJK-OCR now also works with a Computer Vision API Key.
The UiPath Screen OCR activity now supports token authentication, so you no longer need to input the CV API Key if you’re logged into your UiPath cloud account.
The application cards for the CV Extract Table, CV Click, and CV Get Text activities have been updated to resemble their UI Automation Modern counterparts.
When both OCR and CV are requested for the same screenshot, we are now merging the two requests into a single server call. Since the requested UI elements and text are found in the same image, we are thus optimizing for both latency and rate-limiting.
The Computer Vision model now selects anchors automatically for text targets when indicating.
UI Explorer has been upgraded to ActiPro version 20.1.
The Select Item and Extract Table Data activities, both Classic and Modern, now support working with multiple VB6 classes.

- When using remote environments, the Select Item activity would use the default timeout of 30 seconds instead of the timeout set by the user.
- Fixed an issue which caused the Windows Forms application to crash when using an Element Exists activity.
- When using Indicate Element, the element was found but validation failed if there were two Citrix App windows available on the client, but only one of them actually matched a remote window.
