Jenkins Plugin

This plugin allows you to build and deploy UiPath automation processes, as well as run UiPath automated test cases.

In order to pack projects created with UiPath Studio starting from 2020.10, you need to use a version starting from 2.1 of this extension.

Prerequisites

Jenkins server running on Windows or Linux.
At least one Jenkins slave running on Windows (required for step execution).
Orchestrator instance (basic, federated or cloud authentication are supported).
- Testing features require Orchestrator version 2020.4 or higher.
- When using an on-premise Orchestrator under HTTPS, make sure to import the SSL Certificate so that the HTTPS calls to Orchestrator can be trusted.

Installing and enabling the plugin

The Jenkins plugin can be installed from any Jenkins installation connected to the internet using the Plugin Manager screen.

Jobs

UiPath Run Job

The UiPath Run Job post-build step starts a process that was already deployed on an Orchestrator instance. In Orchestrator version 2020.10, you can find the processes that are run by this task in the Processes tab. In versions of Orchestrator 2021.10, and higher, you can find the processes that are run by this task in Automations, under Processes.

Configuration

Job parameter	Description
Process (Required)	Process name. You can take the process name from the Orchestrator UI. If the process is deployed in a Modern folder then this argument should be the Name of the process in the Processes tab. If the process is deployed in a Classic folder, then the argument must be formed by the Name of the process and the Environment (for example: `NAME: ProcessA ENVIRONMENT: Production ProcessName: ProcessA_Production`).
Parameters	The full path to a JSON input file. This is used when the Process requires input. JSON file format example: `{ "StringArgument_In": "MyConfigurationValue", "IntArgument_In": 1, "DictionaryArgument_In": { "Key1": "Value1", "Key2": "Value2" } }`{ "StringArgument_In": "MyConfigurationValue", "IntArgument_In": 1, "DictionaryArgument_In": { "Key1": "Value1", "Key2": "Value2" } }
Priority	The job run priority.
Strategy	Specify the job run strategy, dynamically allocated job(s) or robot-specific job(s). Choose one of the following options: Allocate dynamically Specific robots
Job Type (available for Modern folders only)	Choose the license model of the runtime under which the job is to be executed.
Orchestrator address	The address of the Orchestrator instance where you'll run the process.
Orchestrator tenant	Specify the Orchestrator tenant.
Orchestrator folder	Specify the folder where the specified process was deployed. To input subfolders make sure to input both the parent folder name and the name of the subfolder. For instance, use `AccountingTeam\TeamJohn`.
Authentication	For authentication towards Orchestrator, you need to create credentials in Jenkins upfront. There are four options to authenticate: (1) Authenticate to an on-premise Orchestrator using username and password. (2) Authenticate to a cloud Orchestrator using a refresh token (API key). (3) Authenticate to a cloud Orchestrator using external app authentication. (4) Authenticate to a on-premise Orchestrator using external app authentication.
Job results output path	Specify the output path of the job results (for example, `testResults.json`). The results are outputted in JSON format. If not specified, the results are outputted to the artifact staging directory as `UiPathResults.json`. The output is in JSON format.
Timeout	Specify the job run(s) timeout in seconds.
Fail when job fails	The task fails when at least one job fails. The default value is True.
Wait for job completion	Wait for job run(s) completion. The default value is True.
Trace logging level	Setting used to enable trace logging to one of the following levels: None Critical Error Warning Information Verbose. (The default is set to None). Useful for debugging purposes.
No. of jobs	The number of job runs. The default value is 1.
User (available for Modern folders only)	The name of the user. This should be a machine user, not an Orchestrator user. For local users, the format should be MachineName\UserName.
Machine (available for Modern folders only)	The name of the machine.
Robot names	Comma-separated list of specific robot names.

UiPath Manage Assets

The UiPath Manage Assets step enables you to deploy, update or delete assets on an Orchestrator instance. To deploy assets you must describe them in a CSV file like the one in the example below encoded in uft-8.

name,type,value,description
asset_1_name,text,asset_value,this is an test description   # we can have comments
asset_2_name,integer,123
asset_3_name,boolean,false
asset_4_name,credential,"username::password"name,type,value,description
asset_1_name,text,asset_value,this is an test description   # we can have comments
asset_2_name,integer,123
asset_3_name,boolean,false
asset_4_name,credential,"username::password"

There are four types of assets:

Text
Integer
Boolean
Credential. For the Credential you must encode the username and password by using :: to separate the two fields.

Configuration

Job parameter	Description
Action	What to do with the provided assets: deploy or delete. If a deployed asset exists then it will be updated instead.
Orchestrator address	The address of the Orchestrator instance where you'll deploy or update assets.
Orchestrator tenant	Specify the Orchestrator tenant onto which the assets will be deployed or updated.
Orchestrator folder	Specify the folder where assets will be deployed or updated. To input subfolders make sure to input both the parent folder name and the name of the subfolder. For instance, use `AccountingTeam\TeamJohn`.
Authentication	For authentication towards Orchestrator, you need to create credentials in Jenkins upfront. There are four options to authenticate: (1) Authenticate to an on-premise Orchestrator using username and password. (2) Authenticate to a cloud Orchestrator using a refresh token (API key). (3) Authenticate to a cloud Orchestrator using external app authentication. (4) Authenticate to an on-premise Orchestrator using external app authentication external app authentication.
CSV File Path	The path to the CSV file containing the asset details. The same file can be used to deploy or update the assets, although the type isn't required for updates. The `type` field can also be empty, but the column must be present. For delete, only the `name` column is used, so the other columns can be empty, but they must be present. You can set an optional description for each asset (for example: `type`, `value`, `description`). Make sure to remove any line breaks as each line is interpreted as a new asset.
Trace logging level	Setting used to enable trace logging to one of the following levels: None Critical Error Warning Information Verbose. (The default is set to None). Useful for debugging purposes.

UiPath Run Tests

Application: Testing

Type: Post-Build task

UiPath Run tests is available in standard jobs and pipelines, and lets you:

Run an existing Test Set in Orchestrator.
Package, deploy and run test cases, by specifying the path to a UiPath test project.

After the test run has finished, the Test Result tab is published to the Jenkins build, showing the detailed results. Additionally, a JUnit test results file is created to the test result output path, when specified, or to the workspace root if not specified.

Depending on the result, the build is either marked as successful (all test cases are passed), or unstable (at least one test case failed).

Configuration

Job parameter	Description
Target	Specify an existing test set on UiPath Orchestrator (to execute test set). Provide the `project.json` path of a UiPath Testing project (to execute test project).
Test result output path	The executed test set returns the test result as `junit.xml`. Specify the path where the result should be stored, relative to the Jenkins workspace directory (for example, `result.xml`).
Input Parameters	Define custom arguments for your test cases to override default values at the test set level. Through the arguments, you can set parameters to test cases at runtime. To define arguments, you need to publish a package with arguments.
Orchestrator address	The address of the Orchestrator instance onto which the package(s) will be deployed.
Orchestrator tenant	The Orchestrator tenant onto which the package(s) will be deployed.
Orchestrator folder	The folder to deploy to. If the folder is a Classic folder, you will also need to set the `environments` field. For Modern folders, setting the `environments`. is not required.

    }
  }
}

Obtaining the Cloud Orchestrator API Key

Configure Service Connection for External Apps

Step 1: Configure your external application and scopes. After adding the application, keep the App ID, Secret and Application Scopes at hand, to be used for the next step.

Note: If you generate and use a new Secret, the old one is going to be invalidated.

Step 2: Configure application credentials as secret text in Jenkins. For this step you need the Secret generated in Automation Cloud.

Step 3: Configure the Authentication for each task under Post-Build Actions, by adding the Account Name, followed by the App ID, Secret and Application Scopes generated through Automation Cloud.

Note: Consider using the external app in individual pipelines to avoid invalidation errors.

Additional Information

All paths specified should be local to the current workspace. You can use environment variables in paths, though you should make sure that they result in paths that are local to the workspace.
To deploy packages or run tests, make sure that the authenticated user has the Folders View (or OrganizationUnits View) and (20.4+ only) Background Tasks View permissions.
To package libraries, when connected to an Orchestrator instance, make sure that the authenticated user has the Libraries View permission.
For further details on managing external apps:
- For cloud Orchestrator - please refer to the official documentation.
- For on-premise Orchestrator - please refer to the official documentation.

Troubleshooting Jenkins Plugin

If you run into installation or upgrade issues, consider the following troubleshooting scenarios.

Unauthorized error

Description: Unauthorized error.

Remedy:

If you use basic authentication: make sure that the username-password combination on the web login is correct.

If federated authentication is enabled, make sure you write the username in the task as “DOMAIN\user”
If you use token authentication:
- Revoke the token from the API access panel and generate a new one.
- Make sure that the user that generated the key can access the Orchestrator and has a user account on the Orchestrator instance.
If you authenticate against an on-premise Orchestrator: make sure that the Orchestrator certificate is valid and that the machine running the job trusts the Orchestrator certificate in case you are using a self-signed certificate. You might receive this error because of the certificate used for the Orchestrator not being valid. This might mean that it has the wrong CN or other validation issues.

Forbidden error

Remedy: the user doesn't have the permission to perform the action. Make sure that the user has permissions to read folders, upload packages, create and update processes, read test sets and test cases, read background tasks, and create and run test sets.

Folder/environment not found

Remedy: Make sure that the authenticated user used by CI/CD plugins has the Folders.View and BackgroundTask.View (only for 20.4) permissions.

Package already exists (Conflict)

Remedy: Make sure that the package that you are trying to deploy does not exist with the same version already. If it exists, consider using automatic package versioning, so that the new version is bumped up every time we deploy.

Failed to run the command (Generic error)

Remedy: If the Jenkins workspace is inside a location on disk (for example, C:\Windows or C:\Program Files) to which the user does not have permissions, make sure that the workspace is placed on a path that can be accessed by the user.

Jenkins fails to process paths containing non-Latin characters

Remedy: Jenkins is not able to pass correctly non-standard encoded characters when invoking the UiPath Plugin. The unknown characters will be replaced by ???.

The solution depends on how Jenkins is deployed on both the server and the agent host machines, but involves setting file.encoding to UTF-8 in Java options:

Windows

When running Jenkins on Windows as a Service: in the service configuration file add the arguments inside the tag. Follow the sample script below.

<arguments>-Xrs -Xmx512m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar "%BASE%\)\)jenkins.war" --httpPort=8080 --webroot="%BASE%\)\)war"</arguments><arguments>-Xrs -Xmx512m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar "%BASE%\)\)jenkins.war" --httpPort=8080 --webroot="%BASE%\)\)war"</arguments>

When running Jenkins inside Docker: pass the JAVA_OPTS to the container via --env JAVA_OPTS="...", following the example script below.

docker run --name myjenkins -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 --env JAVA_OPTS=-Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 jenkins/jenkins:ltsdocker run --name myjenkins -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 --env JAVA_OPTS=-Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 jenkins/jenkins:lts

When running Jenkins inside Tomcat: use environment variable CATALINA_OPTS. Follow the example script below.

export CATALINA_OPTS="-DJENKINS_HOME=/path/to/jenkins_home/ -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xmx512m"export CATALINA_OPTS="-DJENKINS_HOME=/path/to/jenkins_home/ -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xmx512m"

Linux

When running on Debian or Ubuntu-based Linux distributions: in the configuration file search for the argument JAVA_ARGS, and add the file encoding. Follow the example script below:

JAVA_ARGS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xmx512m"JAVA_ARGS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xmx512m"

When running on RedHat Linux-based distributions: in the configuration file search for the argument JENKINS_JAVA_OPTIONS and add the file encoding. Follow the sample script below.

JENKINS_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xmx512m"JENKINS_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xmx512m"
