Autopilot™ offers a set of AI-powered capabilities designed to help you create and test automations faster and easier. To see what Autopilot offers across the UiPath® Business Automation Platform, check out the Autopilot guide.

To enhance productivity and streamline the automation development process, Studio now allows you to generate complex expressions using natural language. An integral part of the new Autopilot™ developer capabilities, AI-generated expressions enable you to describe the desired outcome for a particular activity input, while an AI-based model will generate a valid expression based on the request. For more information, see Designing Automations in the Studio guide.

With its summarization capabilities, Autopilot can also describe the inner workings of activities and sequences by creating meaningful names that take into account the elements that define the activity or sequence. To learn more, see The User Interface in the Studio guide.

You can now go back or forward inside project files and between project files using new shortcuts. You can also use the new Navigate forward and Navigate backward buttons and keyboard shortcuts in the Command Palette.

To facilitate access to automations and improve collaboration between developers without the need to share project files or to set up a source control environment in advance, Windows projects can now be saved as cloud projects.

Cross-platform cloud projects are integrated seamlessly with Studio Web, giving you the flexibility to start working on a project in StudioX and continue in your browser, while Windows projects can be stored in the cloud but not edited in Studio Web. For more information, see Designing Cross-platform Projects in the Studio guide.

Organizations can use governance policies to determine if projects are saved locally or to the cloud by default.

A simplified ribbon layout is now available, allowing you to increase the size of the Designer panel. For information on how to enable the new layout, see The User Interface.

For an updated list of available context menu options, see The User Interface.

You can now use the new clipboard icon in the Properties panel to copy error messages that appear in activities prior to execution or debugging.

To improve workflow visibility and usability, you can now see all activity properties in the Properties panel when collapsing an activity, including advanced properties, even if the Show activity properties inline design setting is selected.

You can now also rename and annotate activity containers in activities such as If, Else If, While, Do While, or For Each.

To quickly navigate between multiple projects, you can now open recently accessed projects directly from the taskbar by right-clicking the Studio icon. You can also pin recent projects in the same way as from Backstage view.

We have consolidated the options to authenticate in projects managed through GIT. For more information, see Managing Projects with GIT.

Organizations now have more control over prerelease (beta) versions of activities packages. Using new governance policies that restrict access to prerelease packages, the Include Prerelease filter options in the Manage Packages window can now be hidden, which means that users can have access only to stable versions of an activity package.

If access is not restricted via governance, a new Activities panel filter option, Preview, is now available. Selecting this filter option displays installable activities that are marked as preview in the Activities panel and in the Add activity search bar.
