Migrating From Classic Folders to Modern Folders
Upon upgrading your existing Orchestrator instance, all entities are migrated to the folder context, either a single folder (Default) or a folder for each previous Organization Unit in use. These entities can continue to be used as before, with no change in backward compatibility or performance.
To take advantage of the features provided by modern folders, you must recompile existing workflows that are using Orchestrator activities or are making direct HTTP calls to the Orchestrator API, using UiPath.System.Activities v19.10.1 or higher. You must also reprovision all other existing entities in a modern folder structure except for:
- Robots - as they are automatically provisioned for users with access to the new modern folder; and
- Environments - as they are not used in the context of a modern folder.
See here to learn more about modern folders' additional features.
To convert your current deployment, in whole or in part, to utilize modern folders, you must redeploy some entities, while others you must recreate entirely.
At a high level, the migration process is as follows:
- Each previous Organization Unit, or Tenant if no OU's were used, becomes a First Level Folder. This is done automatically when you upgrade your Orchestrator instance.
- Each Environment becomes a separate subfolder or, alternatively, it's own first-level Folder if you want to keep the users and processes in each segregated completely.
- The workflow of each Package must be recompiled using current activities and then republished or uploaded to Orchestrator.
- Using the newly compiled Packages, each Process must be redeployed to the Folder (or subfolder) which corresponds with its previous Environment.
- Each User must be added to the Folder(s) corresponding with the Processes they need to access.

, one in a classic folder and one in a modern folder, and the user sees and executes only the classic processes available
to them. After the Orchestrator administrator creates and adds the entire modern folder structure and needed entities, followed
by deleting the robot, the modern robot takes over and executes the modern versions of those same processes, with no change
in the user's experience.

as a user in a modern folder, the user will only have access to the classic robot and related processes.
To simplify the process of migrating to modern folders, you can use the UiPath Orchestration Manager. This is a Studio project that uses the Orchestrator API to manipulate entities based on Microsoft Excel workbooks. For instructions on how to use it for migration, see the product's documentation.

parameter of the Orchestrator activities.
