FAQPage Schema
How do I validate legacy UiPath RPA workflows without Studio?▼

You can validate legacy UiPath RPA workflows without Studio by running project validation through a dedicated CLI. This handles XAML workflows described by a project.json file, including VB.NET or C# expressions.

What is a project.json file and do I need it for legacy UiPath automation?▼

A project.json file defines a legacy UiPath RPA project and is required for CLI automation. It allows the CLI to discover, validate, debug, and package your XAML workflows without needing Studio IPC.

Can I debug and package older UiPath XAML workflows from the command line?▼

Yes, you can debug and package older UiPath XAML workflows entirely from the command line. The CLI supports the full lifecycle of legacy projects, including discovery, validation, debugging, and packaging.

Does the CLI work with VB.NET and C# expressions in legacy UiPath projects?▼

Yes, the CLI works with VB.NET and C# expressions in legacy UiPath projects. It manages standard UiPath activity packages typical of legacy stacks alongside the project.json configuration.

What are the limitations of managing UiPath automation via CLI instead of Studio?▼

The CLI targets legacy UiPath RPA projects specifically, meaning it lacks the visual design interface of Studio. It enforces specific Skill Unit criteria and requires your project to be described by a project.json file.
